I started at nexgenwars... until I discovered the numbers were bogus, there was a boring "incremental" script updating the numbers - and the forum was full of flamewars (really, really bad).
I think it was somewhere in there, I found a link to "pcvsconsole.com" ... and stayed there for a few months, until I get the $hits with certain individuals (including the head honcho). Luckily, it was around then I found a link to VGCharts (as we were known then), and I have been happy ever since :))
