I'm not sure I'm going to be able to take part in this regularly, the pages load so slowly. I've been trying to look at past sales data for the last half hour and it's frustratingly slow even on broadband

Imagine what I have to deal with on dial up.

Nintendo still doomed?

Results will be calculated the week after the data is put up. This allows one week from the initial data for any major adjustments or correction then the figures as they stand a week later are the ones used to calculate your winnings. If data changes after that it will not be reflected in the prediction league.

Can you specify what this means in terms of the weekday. As all the results are dropping in on different week days, and japanese results were "late" in that week. Does it mean the prediction league results will be late, until next weekend, or are they coming sooner?

Lost my faith in VGChartz. Too many stupid and ignorant Americans, even as moderators.

It's a shame, really. "The Boss" should do something radical about this Americanization, but it seems hardly feasible, so my days here are numbered.
