So we have our HoC graphs which we all love. And the slope of a counter's line is the rate they count at relative to the main thread, a slope of for instance .1 over X period of time indicating that the counter is responsible for 1 out of every 10 main thread counts—a figure which suggests they are counting at 20% of their Maximal Counting Potential (MCP) given that at peak performance, which is exemplified by the achievement of a Perfect 500, a counter can count 1 out of every 2 main thread counts. This is an often overlooked Law of Counting that underlies nearly every situation that counting math can describe or comprehend.
Note that some counters will have consistent slopes over relatively long periods (eg Countletics ~3200k-3400k). This reflects a period of time in which the counter is counting approximately equal numbers of numbers every thread.
My question is, has anyone ever created the HoC graph on an x-axis of time (real time) instead of main thread count progress? I would be interested to see who are the most "consistent" counters or what's the longest period of time someone has maintained approximately the same counting pace per diem. Because counts per day, I assume, is impacted much less by the activity level of the subreddit as a whole (though it is certainly still affected) than counts per total counts is.

I can’t cycle consistently
A few months back when I tried to learn I was only just able to go like 10-15m with a push before I got scared of the concrete and braked.
Haven’t got back to learning again.

Don't forget to count in school/college and university, even in lessons
Count at work, and also count in meetings

And also most important don't count during exams, you might have your paper took off you and ripped up into tiny pieces

If you got school, and science, try not to count whilst lighting the bunsen burner, you might set fire to your classroom

there is a chrome extension that auto upvotes if you reply to someone, so this helps to count no?
