Earlier in the thread librarian alluded to possibly leaking numbers in response to bananaking's mocking.

If librarian were to come here to clear the air about last month while having the intention to share numbers, got mocked, and still shares them here, that would be a better response than what I would give. 

Let's not assume someone will leak, is all I'm getting at.

I just got July 2017 NPD numbers in from my contact. So I *could*, theoretically, share some of them with you guys right now, so you wouldn't have to wait for Thursday's PR for someone to maybe say something maybe.

Here are my thoughts on the matter:

(1) There are NPD goons crawling all over NeoGAF now and, as history has demonstrated to us in the past, NPD goons have no qualms going on leaker witchhunts and making people's lives hell if they keep leaking. So I really don't know if it's worth poking that hornet's nest if the data's just going to get posted there.

(2) You're right, I don't like being mocked. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth when I just came here specifically to help.

(3) If Jal356 can still share numbers and I can act as a "number verifier" because the mods verified me, it would cause far less stress on me than being an active leaker people rely on. I'm an extremely busy person, and I don't want to create any expectation that I'll just swoop in and share a bunch of numbers every month.

So I'm asking you guys...what would you do if you were in my shoes? Because I'm conflicted.
