Let's hope Ed can give us some weird statistics. Might be interesting. Amount of active IPs compared to usual month and stuff like that!

number of times someone fell asleep clicking

number of times people had food delivered since they were too busy to click to make some theirselves

You've successfully baited me. :)

Number of unique IPs per day with >= 100 requests, for March:

$ for date in {20180301..20180331}; do echo -n $date:" "; cut -d ' ' -f 1 $date.log | sort | uniq -c | awk '$1 >= 100 { print }' | wc -l; done
20180301: 76

The same, for April so far:

$ for date in {20180401..20180403}; do echo -n $date:" "; cut -d ' ' -f 1 $date.log | sort | uniq -c | awk '$1 >= 100 { print }' | wc -l; done
20180401: 65
20180402: 86
20180403: 72

So no noticeable increase, despite there being more bots online. I think IP address analysis like this can be tough because it's not necessarily a great indicator of actual game activity. I've observed this in the past too.
