So let the "professionals" challenge the "authencity" of this site. For amateur people like you it's not a good manner to challenge the work of another amateur. No hard feelings.

I don't think it's so much about leaving it to the professionals. I wouldn't want Michael Panther estimating sales of anything. 

 

The issue here is the vast majority of people come here for the charts and in no disillusion of knowing the numbers are estimates, that there will be times they over or undertake. 

 

The site admin and his team have repeated themselves as far as I can remember being on this site saying they try to follow trends of now and previous gens and extrapolate based on the info they have. They make adjustments where necessary and they try make them in the right places to improve their formula. 

 

We all know about the complaints when ioi stopped posting numbers and where people were willing to accept any sorts of numbers.

 

It is silly to just make comments attacking the admin and his team with the same arguments knowing full well you will get the same answers. If things like this really bug people and they rather have official numbers from trusted sources only, then by all means they can avoid this site. No one is forcing these numbers onto anyone, no one is claiming they are 100% accurate, they are exactly what they say they are - estimations.
