Forums - Sales - 10 Week CountDown 2014!! Overall Winner is: Eikichi!!! Congrats!

fmjasinski on 13 November 2014

Never in the history of the 10 week countdown was allowed to update numbers after being released the numbers of the first week. If each user is update the numbers every week, I'm out, I have no time for this and will be very dull, to be honest.
I suggest keeping the rules of the previous 10 week countdown: no change after the first round and disregard the numbers released for users who have updated the numbers after the launch of the first week.

Yes.

And with that, my predictions are already all over the place only two weeks in. Welp, it was fun while it lasted.

I think it was just an exception for week 1 only with no intentions to update each week.  That being said I am more than willing to use my pre-week 1 numbers.  They were better predictions so far anyways.

I think maybe a good compromise would be putting an asterisk next to the names of players who updated.

so only the XOne was adjusted for week 1 by vgc when week 2 went up

how does the vita go down week to week,doesn't make sense this time of year

Must have been the same thing I was thinking. Man, it seemed so reasonable at the time.

The formula allows me to quickly substitute adjusted numbers, but I'll have a second total that includes adjustments after the conclusion of the 10 weeks, because numbers for each week could actually be adjusted several times by the end of it.

I'll try to update tonight with the new chartz coming out.
