Why not look into a new person that can do what this Brett person was doing? I'm quite confident if you made it known you were looking for someone to fill this role some VERY competent people would emerge. Second, don't EVER let it rest on one persons shoulders. You have to have at least one back up or one to share the duties with. This has gotten out of hand. I have been visiting this page since it started.

Brett owns the site and does almost all the coding, deals with advertisers, and has all the money.  Replacing him wouldtake quite the coup and I just don't have the time and energy for such an endeavor.  

I thought Trucks was on board with coding and stuff now, so that should have freed up Brett to do more of the work that he will not release to others.

Dealing with advertisers aye? Well intrusive auto-play advertising needs to be gotten rid of, this is the ONLY website I visit regularly that has this sort of shitty advertising on it, so clearly it's possible to prevent those autoplay adds from being part of a website site. So if he can work on that too it would be appreciated.

OT, can we please have Japan numbers updated weekly even if no other regions are updated for months. We already have the official hardware sales every week for Japan so Brett doesn;t need to do any work at all except MC+Famitsu+Dengeki/3. And he pretty much has the top 30 software numbers sorted as well. So 70% of his job is done for him for Japan. Indeed he could probably had off the whole of the Japan charts to one of the staff. Outside of the top 30 software sales you could probably let a random number generator pick the sales for all other games being sold in Japan and not be more than 20-30% out for 90% of the games. The Japan charts can just about be run on autopilot.

Do something at least to keep the numbers on this site moving forward. The situation is really getting out of hand.
