Another thing you need to consider is time zones. The US is sleeping when you are posting and VGChartz activity is pretty slow around this time. I'm in the US and I'm usually on when you guys are because I work early. If I make a thread now, it'll probably get thrown off Hot Topics by the time my fellow fatties wake up. I did that yesterday and I only got 10 replies. If I make a thread 7 hours from now, I'll get more replies. The US doesn't know half of you people, because you aren't on when they are. I actually consider myself part of your world, because I see you guys more. Now if I make a super trolly thread, it should be able to sustain enough replies to stay alive till the Americans wake up, but meh. I don't really get my kicks from creating threads anymore.
Edit: Thread winning, that is where the glory is.
