It's going to be harder this year because you are limited to 40 games. Are you going to record every games sales weekly and calculate the difference yourself? If you do, I suggest limiting it to 12 players, or asking someone else to track a few titles too.

Yeah it is a little trickier. I am not planning on calculating the difference myself because that would just be too time consuming. I've tried to design the game a little bit differently this year for it to work better with less data. There are only 4 tiers of games this year instead of 6, and the free agent pool was added so people wouldn't have to be stuck with a title that gets them 0 for the whole game.

I added this to the OP now as well, but in order for the game to be counted it will either have to be in the WW top 40, or if it shows up in any of the regional top 40 charts then the sales for that region will be counted. If it doesn't show up in either place it counts as 0.

Well that would make a lot of zeros. I don't mind helping calculate the difference between some games. Maybe if we get enough volunteers, we could still do this.

After looking at it a bit more you are right. There is basically no chance that more than a couple of the games in round 4 make it into the top 40 in any region. So, I'm going to change the rule for round 4 games and I will keep up with the weekly sales of those titles manually which shouldn't take too long. For the other games (round 1-3 and bonus games) I'm going to stick to my original rules about it being in the WW top 40 or regional top 40. I think there are enough games in each of those rounds that should chart, that the number of 0s should be similar to last year.
