I dunno, sales numbers have been boring for awhile.  It's better with leaks.  I really miss the good ole days of full disclosure npd when you could see that Little Mermaid for game boy color sold two copies for the month.

1) I F5'd the the GAF thread for 11 minutes before getting in
2) Posted the thread
3) Showed promise but started falling apart by list wars (I was guilty of this) and general meta posting.  In short, it was suffering from preliminary NPD-GAF syndrome.
4) Jinfash asked me to lock the thread.  I did.
5) Demi unlocked it.
6) Willco locked it.

I suppose I can unlock it but it isn't worth it.  The juiciest GAF tidbits will find its way to the Outside thread.  Long story short, last month was about what most sane people expected it to be.

If it wasn't for generating talking points for console wars I don't see why else anyone would be interested in numbers.  The lack of information outside of the top ten makes "analysis" very faulty.  Yet, we can't have sanctioned areas for acting like manchildren every now and then?

Pro-tip on long lists of mojo spoilers:

Start from the bottom up. No, there's no guarantee you arrive at the solution(s) quicker. There's just less scrolling.

I found this weird blob of sugar in my Cinnamon Toast Crunch and I had to take it back to the store. I'm totally going to switch to Golden Grahams
