World Cup, through quarter finals: Foursquare and gowalla checkin totals

Posted by Laura on Friday, 9 July, 2010

The World Cup is done.  Based on averages, there do appear to be trends for usage around different teams.  I don’t have any other large international competition which to compare this two but it might be of interest to others who are organizing such events like the women’s World Cup for soccer and the Rugby World Cup.  Some national contingents will be the same and if we assume that these patterns hold across nationalities… it might give national sides, companies and organizers using geolocation services an idea which one is better for their audience and which games to target.  This is especially true if we assume that Foursquare and Gowalla users are representative of active social media users period who will use other services to discuss the event.

Related to the results: For the Germany vs. Spain game,between getting data before the event and after the event, Foursquare merged two locations.  If I had just used the one, it would have possibly included an additional 43 checks for the game that were from previous games.  Thus, I subtracted the previous venue’s totals from the venue that they were merged into.

Onwards with the results…

World Cup, end of the second round: Foursquare and gowalla checkin totals

Posted by Laura on Friday, 2 July, 2010

The second round came to an end and the third round is about to start.  My initial thinking was that as the tournament went on, you’d see more checkins at games.  My assumptions were that ticket prices would go up for later rounds, leading to a more affluent, social media connected audience attending these game.  I also assumed that the stadiums would be at capacity, where early first round games would not be. My assumption was South Africa would have the highest average checkins for all team, because of the home country advantage.  I also figured most of the teams left in would be big name team, which would have a wider audience than their own national base. I also thought that Foursquare would always beat Gowalla by a lot. I don’t quite know what I based these assumption on; it just felt like what I thought obvious patterns should be.

Some of these assumptions appeared to be a bit true.  Some of them not.  Appearing in the second round did not mean that a team climbed the ladder of total checkins.  Witness Japan, Paraguay, South Korea, Slovakia, Brazil and Germany who are averaging less than 50 checkins a game on Foursquare at the end of round 2.  Some of these are popular teams and they are all team who played in the second round.  Chile, Brazil, South Korea all appeared in the bottom 16 teams on Gowalla at the end of the second round.  South Africa wasn’t anywhere close to the top on Gowalla.  It should probably hold on to the top spot on Foursquare.  (Mexico has passed it though for total checkins.)  Patterns that I thought would emerge haven’t.

Anyway, on with the data…

World Cup, end of the first round: Foursquare and gowalla checkin totals

Posted by Laura on Saturday, 26 June, 2010

The first round has ended and we’ve now a fair amount of data for Foursquare and Gowalla. This can be used to try to figure out which fans were most likely to checkin. The top of the table surprised me a bit with who was there and who wasn’t there. The bottom of the table was also a bit surprising. I rather thought that there would be fewer English speaking countries near the bottom and that the Asian and African sides would be over represented. That doesn’t appear to be the case.

World Cup, day 8: Foursquare and gowalla checkin totals

Posted by Laura on Saturday, 19 June, 2010

On Foursquare, there were changes near the top and near the bottom of the ladder.  Yesterday featured one swarm badge, which was the same as the day before and the day before that. It will be interesting to see how teams progress into the second and third games. After the first round, will totals probably matter more than averages? What audience is seeing second round games?

Gowalla
Gowalla doesn’t have the checkin strength of Foursquare. A big game on it doesn’t even get to the low count for foursquare and a lot of games have 0s. The ladder is also pretty much completely different.

World Cup, day 7: Gowalla checkin totals

Posted by Laura on Friday, 18 June, 2010

Gowalla is the other major geolocation checkin site. I haven’t looked at it since the first day of the World Cup. I need to be a bit more proactive in checking it and updating but the total checkin volume is just so much lower that it is hard to see it as a contender during the cup. (Though, to be fair, Foursquare is falling and when the checkin rate has a difference of 18, that’s not many people.)

I’ve completed a table comparing the total and average checkins on Gowalla for all World Cup games to date. The rankings are rather different than for that of the Foursquare. I’d love speculation as to why.

Netherlands 5 5 1 Soccer City
Australia 4 4 1 Moses Mabhida Stadium

World Cup, day 7: Foursquare checkin totals

Posted by Laura on Friday, 18 June, 2010

The second round seems to have a lot fewer checkins than the first.  Examples?  South Africa and Mexico’s first game had 335 checkins.  South Afraica’s second game had 36.  Mexico’s second game had 14 checkins. Nigeria’s first game had 203 checkins.  The second game had 19.  What exactly is going on?  Can anyone explain why there are no second round swarm badges?  Is there a different audience attending these games that is less likely to use Foursquare?

Table is sorted by average checkins as that seems to better reflect what is going on. There are a number of changes from yesterday in ranking.

As the raw data set is getting quite big, I’m not going to include it in future posts. If you’re interested in seeing it, drop me an e-mail and I’ll happily send it along. Of the three games played on June 14, none of them cracked the top four positions in the leaderboard.

World Cup, day 3: Foursquare checkin totals

Posted by Laura on Monday, 14 June, 2010

It is day three and the trend appears to be fewer Foursquare checkins. It is interesting to speculate why. The six teams at the bottom of the checkin ladder all played in games with one European side. Two of those matches were against African sides and one was against Asian side. Those six teams failed to earn their supporters a swarm badge. Is Foursquare less popular in Europe than it is in English speaking countries? Do football fans from those countries use other geolocation sites? Let me know.
