Welcome to the official Twitter account for the MCSR Census Project!

We endeavour to capture demographic and social trends/phenomena in the MCSR community, informing community growth and content strategy. Our flagship deliverable is the MCSR Census, which runs every summer.

@Eclipse__Blue @play_gridlock @EvilGeniuses Qualitatively and quantitatively, MCSR definitely is on par with big-name events like MCC and co.; the Mojang endorsement only adds to our success. Newer gamemodes like Draftout ad Gridlock add variety to the mix too!

[MCSR Census Project @MCSRCensus]

Couriway's 10,000th speedrun and the @play_gridlock x @EvilGeniuses panel were very well-received, averaging 12,131 and 8,404 CCV respectively.

Once again, congratulations to Couri for this immense achievement, and to MCSR for proving its potential over a successful TwitchCon!

One more note: the viewership peak of 56,941 (17:15 CET) was set during the showmatch between Feinberg and Hax, apt homage to the very event that catapaulted MCSR into the stratosphere.
As for bracket matches, the viewership peak of 43,989 was recorded during the finals (16:35).

Viewership for @TubboLive's Midoffs LIVE! GGs to production, casters, players and coaches - the matches were nothing short of spectacular, and really let MCSR's tight-knit, supportive and approachable natures shine through.

This event averaged 33,411 CCV, and peaked at 56,941.

Having looked into the "spirit of MCSR" in past surveys, I can't agree more with what @realcouri had to say about MCSR. We pride ourselves in dedication, competitveness and also the never-ending quest for community betterment, to which this event stands as a powerful testament.

In other news, the 2026 Pre-Census Consultation (11-26 May) drops in 4 hours!

A big thank you to @Evajk_04 @jungletemples @_DestEmu and lilac for helping with tracking!

We look forward to seeing the numbers the bracket will bring! Playoffs viewership stats will be updated after every weekend, but a S10 viewership report is unlikely.
