I've forgotten about this thread for a while now but I was wondering how the accuracy fared in January and February 2019?

So January had XBO underrepresented while Feb had PS4 underrepresented.

So January had XBO underrepresented while Feb had PS4 underrepresented.

Indeed, If I remember it right, XBO was not even charting at all at some point in January which is the likely explanation for the undertracking.

February PS4 is probably linked to lack of new SKU / Promo compared to the other two which is something I will have to add to the formula in some form in the future (I think new bundles / promotions lead to overtracking but I need more data to try and adjust...).
