Sound like someone is a sore looser of a bet :)

Very entertaining stuff, thanks for making this thread and taking it like a real sportsman.


Yes he is a sore loser !!!!  I don't know why he takes vgz numbers with a grain of salt. 

There's no reason to think that USA numbers are wrong really !!!

Why so aggressive? Just relax a bit, this is no life threatening situation nor is anything important at stake.

But it seems there are some really aggressive guys around here these days.

Things have been getting a little "heated" in this thread. If you don't have any evidence to back up your argument, then please don't just claim "undertracked" or insult the site. If you do have evidence, then you're more than welcome to present it.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

ioi lost his "credibility", when he adjusted last weeks numbers down to below 18.5 million, when Sony's official statement clearly says OVER 18.5 million.

As i've said before, when I made this thread I was new to VGC, when I discovered that ioi had overtracked PS4's numbers by 1 million, I sorta felt let down by his estimations. I was under the impression that he was (most of the time) right, or at least very close to the actual numbers.

Now, I don't bother playing with his numbers, the only thing I'll be doing on VGC from now on is lists.

wow... way to lose a bet dude :)
You made a bet abount numbers on this site after all, so undertracked or overtracked, the numbers went below 180k this week on this very website. That's it, it is a lose, no need to attack the site or the individual because the numbers does not please you anymore.

http://n4g.com/news/1541560/vgchartz-global-weekly-chart-21st-june-2014 -> PS4 at 96k

Post adjustments: http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41812/Global/ -> PS4 at 148k

Both numbers from the same website. He hasn't lost anything until enough time has passed. Same goes for bets in the opposite side.

You made it two weeks. That's the same number in ranking as....you know..... No.2



riecsou on 29 January 2015

Calm down guys. As for now the bet is lost. When they do post adjustments, if they do post adjustments, the bet will be on again.

I'd just say it's still within a 10% margin for error .



teigaga on 29 January 2015

Plenty of room for error with such a small number in difference, I'mma keep watching to see how things progress. Down the road when numbers are amended this could easily be 180k+.
