When a sim goes offline, the population files are still downloaded and the population of that sim is included in the total for a day or two. We are using a passive server, so it's difficult to know when a sim is just slow v. gone away for a long time. If the sim does not come back after 48 hours, then the population file should get deleted (though I have a bug in this currently).
Duplo generally lives in Shvarz's sim. I suspect he is running some atypical environment where Duplo thrives but other bots tend not to. An examination of Duplo's DNA would be very telling...
The internet population is based on the collected set of pop files. I generate a local pop file every graph update cycle, but currently, the internet population graph is a a graph update behind in reflecting the local population. Call this a bug. I'll fix it someday...

I'm running a sim with no costs except for the cost of maintaining a body (which is pretty high, ~0.15 per body). I raised the cost slowly, so Duplo probably had time to adapt. Shrinking violet used to do pretty good when the cost was ~0.1. Now nothing from outside survives in my sim If someone makes a veggie that would do well under these conditions, I'd be very happy. Right now I have to constantly re-populate with Alga Shellular, a stupid clumsy veggie that I made and which, therefore, sucks like a super-powered vacuum cleaner.

Use trafalgar's nanite detonators as a veggie

Figures; I need to start my simulation paused if I want to even see it; for some reason every single bot dies after 8 cycles. The only way I can think this possible is if you have some abnormal strbody/fdbody rates or making crazy huge defense systems.
shvarz:
Here's a cool-looking colony of Shrinking Violet. Not sure whether that's how it usually grows or I got some weird mutation in it. Looks neat, though.
P.S: By the way, Eric, see what happens with using a background picture? The background color shows through the inside of the bot
EDIT: It's actually Shrinking Violet 2. Here is a representative genome:
