Numbers Game

[ianacole]

I pulled some numbers to take a look at how GTS is doing, and thought I would share them with you all. Please let me know if you have any questions about the data...

 

The year isn't over yet, so 2010 statistic include only those entries YTD, plus pre-registrations for upcoming events.

2009 vs. 2010, broken down by month:

 

2009 vs. 2010 entries by region:

 

This one is a bit cluttered, but this shows monthly regional participation totals 2009 vs. 2010. Given the trends in previous month participation, I expect upcoming months to come in higher than last year's:

 

And finally, GTS class counts 2009 vs. 2010. Already GTS-1 and -2 have shown greater attendance than last year:

 

Thank you everyone for making GTS such a successful series!

Thanks for posting. Definitely interesting to see the GTS trends across all the regions. Let's hope GTS stays strong!

2009 vs. 2010, broken down by month:

 

2009 vs. 2010 entries by region:

So...the first chart shows every month so far (which is to say through July) is up, but the second chart shows almost every region is down. Am I right to assume that the second chart includes August through December, too, and that what we're seeing is most regions are already very close to matching their total 2009 attendance...? If so, that's great news.

Exactly. Through July we are ~150 entries away from our 2009 total for the year.
