This is a proven way of removing anomolies whilst keeping the average very reflective of the opinions of the many. Anomolies always skew averages. If M$ have a good month then 70k isnt out of the picture though. There is the potential for 30k sales in TLR week if recent times have been anything to go by and remember this is a proper SE game unlike IU. I would say 70k is pushing it but 50k is definitely achievable depending on when in November TLR is released. |
this is 1 week of Japan sales. 10k is pushing it. If it was 1 month, 40k would be pushing it.
Anyways, we have something planned out for the prediction league, but there are other things that are taking priority right now. Typically the anomolies don't skew the average outside the realm of realistic sales, however with the LittleBigPlanet release the fanboys have gone quite crazy and started infecting every part of the internet including the prediction league.
