OCTOBER 1, 2026

October 1, 2026, on the Columbus Crew front. This was a day of unbroken rule: espnfans held the hill for all 20 tracked hours, and the crown never moved. Nobody in the elite ranks could put together an hour loud enough to take the summit.

The summit itself never fell, but the trenches were busy: 24 overtakes were logged among the elite ranks as challengers traded positions below the king.

Between them, the 8 tracked armies fired 5.4M engagements across the day. The single hottest hour belonged to espnfans, who detonated 310.6K engagements in the 03:00 UTC hour alone.

In sheer volume, espnfans was the loudest army of the day with 62% of tracked engagement, ahead of mls (10%) and karom_100k (10%).

This day is still being fought — the record above covers the first 20 hours and will be sealed at midnight UTC. Watch it live →
