Does a particular scare make players close my horror game? Compare to normal

Some players leave right after a scare, but players also leave at any other moment, so a raw count says nothing. This entry shows how to tell whether a scare really pushes people out, by comparing against how often they leave at random, and when too few people saw it to say.

Why this works

People quit all the time, so a scare is only guilty if more players leave right after it than they would in any stretch of the same length. Comparing with that normal rate is the fair measure.

When not to use it

Wrong when few players saw the scare, or when it sits just before a designed end, since those quits are not reactions. A horror game is allowed to frighten, so check whether players come back the next day.
