Does anyone who reads Russian game-related websites know what linked to FreeOrion around April 5 2012?
There were about 25000 downloads from Russia over 4 days after that:

It seems rather suspicious that they were all using Linux, don't you think? Or is that common in Russia?

Why do you say that? That graph is for v0.4 installers downloads, which includes only Windows and OSX versions, and all but about 150 of them are downloads of the Windows version.Bigjoe5 wrote:...they were all using Linux...

On the right, right underneath "Top Country: Russia", it says "Top OS: Other", where other is opposed to Windows, OS X, and Unknown.Geoff the Medio wrote:Why do you say that?

Clicking on that box goes to another page with the details. Most is "Unknown", and "Linux" is just 48 of the downloads.

Re: Russian Download Spike
It is pretty remarkable considering in the last six years we've been holding steady at 3 to7 thousand downloads a month.
