That is a great beggining, thanks for the answer Machina. Hope it goes smooth.

Will we get HW updated similar as well?

Any long term estimative for when will we be about 1 week or less behind?

Yep, same with HW, but Will (TrunksWD) will be responsible for that.

One week is not possible - we don't get most of our data that early any more. Two weeks is the absolute best I could do, but would be provisional, and I'm not sure if it'd be a good idea to post that. Three weeks is when we get all our data in.

Once I can adjust I could conceivably go to two weeks, and then update the data when the rest comes in (much like Brett used to do in the early days) a week later, and then finally adjust whenever NPD/Chart Track etc. and publishers post their financial data.

Regardless it'll be a vast improvement on the current situation. To be honest I can't express how grateful I'll be to Talon for building an adjustment tool - I'll be able to keep game totals as accurate as possible, and am hoping to get the community involved in helping me source data to improve our figures. I can't wait.

I'm trully happy for this.

And sure being consistent on 3 weeks lead time is already great (our biggest issue isn't even how far back we are, is that we get like jumps from month to month that end most enthusiasm in discussing it).

Looking up to the 2 week behind with preliminary data and future corrections =]
