According to you the first post about Sony was impulsive. You're post about Amazon showing a clear winner is also impulsive especially when you push it as a fact. Its not a fact because we don't know the gap between #2 and #20. It could be huge and PS4 is winning but it could also be minimal and with the XB1 Minecraft bundle right after the BF1 could put the XB1 ahead. It's not a fact unless you can provide us evidence of the gap. Seeing as you cant its not a fact and that why its impulsive. You're other statement saying "If the positions between #2 and #20 are substantial, then Amazon has determined the outcome of the month" is better.

Your argument has totally lost me.

In this thread. Which is based on AMAZON rankings, there is a clear winner for the month. Based on amazon threads, there is no reason to disregard such a positional difference cause well.... this is an amazon thread. You are basically talking up there not being that much of a difference between 2nd and 20th because right next to 20th teher is also 21st in favour of the XB1. So you want us to consider the relevance of 2 positions yet ignore that of 19 places.

You are making it sound like CGI said the PS4 is going to win the month of december simply due to their position on amazon. Whereas its clear CGI said that there is a clear winner for the month as far as AMAZON is concerned. Now none of this should have neded to be pointed out being that this is an amazon thread.

Now speaking outside amazon, and in the general scheme of things, are you aware that cyber monday (which sony is rumored to have won) is counted along with the month of december?

When did i disregard the positions? I did the opposite of that by saying that we don't know how big the gap is in favor of the PS4 because yes PS4 is higher but like i said we dont know by how much. Also i said that the PS4 or XB1 could be winning but there is no decisive or clear winner due to us not knowing how big the gap is.

Never said that CGI said PS4 was winning.

Yeah i addressed this already since PS4 is rumored to win Cyber Monday it could take the month.

Where did i every say you said PS4 was winning? The concept isn't lost to me at all when I used Amazon less than an hour ago to explain why the Xbox could be winning http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=8216298

Also what was the point of you're post just now you didn't contribute to anything I said in the post that you qouted. The only thing was that you didn't say PS4 was winning and that we use this thread to make predictions on the US console market? While I was talking about what you said was a fact wasn't a fact because we don't know the amount of units between each gap.

So when did the gap become such a big deal in an Amazon topic? Answer - after that alleged 100K November difference. Before that, we discussed the positions and who looks to win the month based on them. I still base my reasoning on that. 

Ive seen the gap being discussed before on the thread, and I see nothing wrong with bringing up the gap because like I've said countless times we dont know the gap between each console so we cant say if there is a clear or deccsive winner or not.
