So you've been allowed to adjust numbers by ioi?!

Nah, I send him a detailed list of adjustments I want done a couple of times a month and he eventually gets around to doing them. However, because the time he's willing and able to dedicate to working on the site is so limited I've had to prioritise which titles get adjusted, and so far that's pretty much meant I've focused solely on games that are currently in the top 100. Bayonetta 2 was one of the few exceptions I've made to that rule - it was so far off that it made me cringe whenever I came across the game in the sales database. He didn't reduce it by as much as I think it needs, but I'll take it for now :p

What I'd absolutely love to do is go all the way back to the start of the gen, trawl through various sources (your NPD threads, press releases, Famtisu, Media Create, GfK, and publisher IR data) and work my way forwards updating everything, doing a month a time. There's no way Brett would be able to make the thousands of adjustments I'd request tho and there'd soon be a backlog. Given the situation I figure it's best to focus on newer releases, but if I ever am able to manually adjust myself then that would be my number one long term project.


Man that project sounds insane!
Really wish that someday ioi will give you full power to make adjustment on this site. Will never understand why he hasn't allowed it yet...
