Is the site generating any money at all? Honest question, I know how hard it can be to go from a popular hobby site to making even the slightest amount from it.

Expect updates Sunday / Monday. Sorry for the delays everyone.
I'm more relieved that you're alright than knowing when the numbers will be up.

ioi should allow one of the senior mods to update the numbers. These delays happen a bit too often.

Do you think that updating the numbers is a simple matter of clicking a button or something like that? It probably requires hours of analysis, expertise, specific (and maybe custom) software tools (along with expertise on them)...

 


The clear answer is that if ioi wants this site to be taken seriously, he should teach other people/admins how to use his numbers and compile and post in the occasion that he isn't around to do it. If posting all the sales numbers is a one man job and he won't let anybody else do it when he can't, that's a complete joke. I doubt there's nobody else on earth who can get the numbers besides him.


 What erikers said.

 

I'm quite sure too, that each week's numbers requires hours of collection and analysis...but this site would run a lot smoother if it wasn't a one man show. ioi should be praised for all of the hard work that he has put into this site, but it's becoming apparent that he can't run this site on his own.

As erikers suggested, ioi could teach other trusted people/admins his methods so that when he needs a week or two break, this site doesn't fall apart. Or, to reduce the amount of work on ioi's part each week, he could delegate certain collection/analysis tasks to others.

Hooray! I was worried I'd need to just use this site for the forums. And ioi, relax, have fun, don't mind that we bitch when the numbers aren't up. We bitch when a random site gives a bad review to a game we like too. Welcome back, hope all is well.



See Ya George.
