I'm completely ashamed at how long it took me to think of posting screenshots of the games in the poll.maybe could've saved all the ones i nommed that somehow made it on before now tbh... also on another note, are we gonna go back and do a master system poll too or are we deciding it's safe to act like it's been covered through this and the genesis polls lol anyway honestly Gunstar Heroes had been on my mind for this one since the genesis one but given the clear capabilities of the handheld which it demonstrated many times i honestly don't feel confident in saying it has a particular edge after all. i mean there's plenty of games on it that managed to pulled off pseudo-3D visuals on it so eh. i'll have to look into more of the overall selection than i presently know before i decide tbh |

UF8 04/08/24 3:32:57 AM #38 | UF8 posted... i'd had ideas to make it more of a floating amount if it were to be implemented in vgmc, like say, up to 32 but there'd also be an initial threshold to reach first (like 3 unique supports) before any of them were counted, so it'd likely be way less than that in the first few days. the exact specifics though weren't fully decided tbhsince i ran out of edits, to elaborate on some of the ideas here, one of them was that i thought it could end up being like, up to T8 in the first couple of days, up to T16 on days 3-5, and and up to T24 or 32 in the days after the freeze, assuming the freeze had taken place later in another one was up to T8 if the highest nom was at 4 noms, up to T16 if there were was more than one at 5 or higher, T24 at 6 and so on. as these lock updates would only happen daily, it'd mean it could end up with less than 32 on this window by the end if there aren't at least a couple of noms with 7+ by the start of the final day (which there probably would be, granted) of course, there was also just having flat out all of the top 32 over the initial requirement from the get go with no additional stipulations but i just felt like it'd be better to not have to see such a theoretically large list of songs spammed every single day. the 8 per day is what i'm using by preference for mini-bost after all anyway yeah i still think it would be nice to see and i'm just doing my part to keep the idea on the table for the future |

UF8 04/08/24 3:10:51 AM #37 | DanKirby posted... As I remember it, at the start of each day of the nominations process, a list of the current top X (not sure exactly how many it was) nominations in terms of nom count would be posted, and no one would be allowed to drop their support for anything on the list.it was top 8 btw (and whatever else happened to be tied with them on noms). it was a pretty irrelevant system needless to say in a contest with no reason to drop supports in the first place but that's kind of the beauty of it imo, as it well and truly ensured that people were prevented from manipulating their supports at the last minute because of things being "safe" and then them getting cut. so yeah it was mostly just there to advertise the most popular noms each day lol. (the anti-drop effect only lasted till the next tally update the following day to be clear. of course if a nom like say, genshin, was hogging the top 8 the entire time then it was protected from drops that whole time too) i'd had ideas to make it more of a floating amount if it were to be implemented in vgmc, like say, up to 32 but there'd also be an initial threshold to reach first (like 3 unique supports) before any of them were counted, so it'd likely be way less than that in the first few days. the exact specifics though weren't fully decided tbh |

UF8 04/07/24 5:30:33 AM #29 | PIayer_0 posted... 1) Hosting support: Should we open up hosting duties to the community? Seeing deo forget or be unable to post this topic multiple times this week, I'm reminded that 4 months of nominations, bracket construction, topic posting, and vote tallying is a lot of work to put on one person! With the growth from 128 to 192 to 256 and loop/composer tagging, it's only getting worse while we're getting older with outside responsibilities and life changes. deo already gets a lot of help with admin stuff, we're just missing a more official way to contribute. How can I help with posting the topic when deo's away? How do I tally votes accurately? Maybe we can lighten the load by assigning each day of the week to different people for the match topic, but there need to be resources to support that. Many of us know how hosting works by now, and the contest will probably progress towards being more community-run anyway.well i've been fully stonewalled on this front after begging for years so idk if this is actually happening or if i'm really just blacklisted by everyone in the community at this point (probably) PIayer_0 posted... 3) Noms and representation: Does everyone feel like their voice can be heard with the power of supports and doubles? A community bracket would ideally represent each demographic proportionally, *except* no one gets rounded down to zero representation. We're in a stable B8-Siiva-Supra period where we can try things that were vulnerable to bad actors in the past, like giving people the power to push in that one darling song. It would be a big leap to do auto-include noms, but we can try something with going beyond doubles. Everyone gets three triples? Or two quadruples? One quintuple? Maybe they can distribute their 20 votes across as few songs as they like, but with a cap per song. Representation is connected to bracket size too - we grew to 256 to have more tastes represented, yet doubling the field doesn't shift any demographics directly...we just get more of everything in the same proportions.i'm not going to comment directly on this thought for now, but i will say that i've personally been interested in taking a different direction entirely and making doubles a more rare resource if anything. i'd been thinking heavily about giving doubles a one per day limit, as well as only allowing them for supports because i'm more opposed to the idea of people forcing in songs others wouldn't support than ever tbh. But I do know well, as one of the more outcast nominators to begin with, that it's a point worth discussing. PIayer_0 posted... 4) Nom deadlines: How many rules do we add to try and satisfy everyone? All these deadlines are getting to a point where I have a hard time keeping them in my head, not to mention the newcomers parsing them for the first time. Some people like locks and some people like a moving cutoff, should both deadlines be stuffed in together each year? It can satisfy both sides, but it's also more criteria to worry about. This year, I'm reducing my original noms and have seen comments considering the same - will that make supports more concentrated and push the cutoff higher? I have no idea, so now I have to track how many songs are locking daily, check how many lock slots are free before the deadline, decide if I want to push for any locks, drop songs before the last day, then manage the moving cutoff at the end (whose speed is itself affected by how many users' votes are sitting on locks). I'm getting too old for this! Casual, public games are fun because they impose rules that are easy to learn and play with, and that goes for both veterans and newcomers.one of the many factors in why i've been pretty strongly against the lock system the way it fits into the mix presently is how thoroughly casual unfriendly it is (or moreso just extremely biased towards those who are more actively involved, as it functions basically just the same as a regular deadline but without a preannounced date attached anyway yeah i've rambled aimlessly enough here i think, i just hope to have my two cents considered more in the future since i'm pretty hurt that all of my weeks of planning out a revamp got turned down again lol |

UF8 04/06/24 8:39:25 PM #19 | oh ok so i misinterpreted the no limit to supports line my bad with that in mind then, well for one thing i am still incredibly disappointed that you'll continue to prevent support of songs this way, but that aside, i am also pretty concerned over this current plan. you're really putting the freeze before the full amount of noms have been unlocked? (i mean sure there's supports but the idea is usually meant to be to use them *after* listening to everything). i get that you're probably trying to just encourage only 10 total per user but imo it'd have honestly been better to just flat out limit to 10 unique noms and 20 total than this (of course, i'd have been more for 10 and 30 total personally) also another matter that i wish had been tackled is just the fact that even with the freeze, 5 per day seems to be a bit excessively stressful for day 1 with the current crowd and lowering to 4 or 3 per day could've been a good move. (getting a rule adjustment to further push for people provide loop/end points for their own nominations would also be a very nice thing) thirdly, given that i'd been hoping to run bost23 significantly earlier than last year to leave sufficient room to start bost24 around the start of next year, i do hope that this contest can start more swiftly after noms than last time (in all fairness, that contest series is prob going to be a bit less involved moving forward so ideally it won't be as heavy a commitment as it was in the first iteration) |

Anyway I'm just happy about the support fix, I put in my request on the lock system revision because I was concerned over how damaging it'd be with this change but there's really no way to know for sure without actually doing this. If it does end up being absolute bedlam then hey at least i can say i was right (but just in case i will say that you might want to put in a clarification or something that it could get emergency bumped up to at least 8 lol, the idea of locks potentially running out before even the unique nom limit is reached is scary!!!) |

UF8 04/05/24 10:23:08 PM #90 | By the way, interesting sales note again, turns out Gran Turismo 4 was also a game that vastly outperformed expectations in Europe specifically. The reported figures on them all come from their website back in 2013 and apparently it sold less than half as many copies in NA compared to GT3, and also only two thirds as many in Japan, but it was also the best selling GT game ever in Europe (and it wouldn't really surprise me if that figure still stands tbh). Still, I guess that explains a lot of why every other vote is automatically going for 3 here. I perceived them as pretty close in relevance but as usual the demographics of the site just don't see it that way since I guess Forza hit its long-term sales way harder elsewhere... |
Topic | What four games are on the PS2 Mount Rushmore? |
UF8 04/05/24 9:38:00 PM #80 | KamikazePotato posted... What I'm finding is that the Prince of Persia trilogy sold 14 million over a period of time, including rereleases. That's believable.i'll put you through the other numbers since you don't believe me. It had sold over 2 mil copies 2 months past release. At the time, north american numbers were accounting for about 25-30% of that (and the ps2 numbers half of that), and the rest pretty much only came from the PAL releases, which, since they hadn't put out the Xbox or GCN versions yet, were only for the GBA/PS2/PC releases (and frankly i haven't actually seen a gba copy before so i don't think that factored for much). The following month it was stated that europe was over half of that. By 2006, the US sales for the ps2 version had reached over three times the previous figure, around 700k. It's pretty safe to say that the other releases, including the pal ones, followed similar trends, and more than likely the xbox/gc versions also sold pretty well in europe too the only standalone rerelease after that (at least before the 14 million figure was cited) was as a ps2 classic on the ps store, which you could choose to not count or you could. Given that it was a few months after the movie, it probably did pretty well at the time too, though numbers on it specifically weren't provided. It was 2014 where the over 14 million figure was cited, and it is true that could also be factoring in the trilogy/triple pack/hd trilogy sales... though to be fair just off what we already know it's more or less to be expected that it had somewhere around 700k-1m in NA and over double that in europe at a bare minimum for the ps2 version. but yeah, I'd have estimated that europe was contributing about 3 to 4 million to those numbers on ps2, NA as reported at least 700k, and other regions... an amount. That's what i based my guess that it had likely outsold them on, it's probably in the same ballpark as them... |

UF8 04/05/24 8:23:48 PM #36 | NFUN posted... probably a gran turismo uf8 can choose which for meok fair enough this is honestly tough though, I think 4 is the one generally with the bigger fandom now (turns out having a >700 car roster (which unlike later entries is almost fully comprised of models made for it specifically instead of just porting over old ones does it a lot of favours in maintaining relevance). Having said that, 3 was a massive leap forward in its own right despite the limited car roster, boasting arguably significantly more fun car physics (than 4) among other things, and it also comfortably outsold 4 (14mil vs 11mil sales)). It's a tough call but I guess it might as well be the one treated more as the GOAT among series fans nowadays Gran Turismo 4 Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Shadow of the Colossus Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time sands of time may be a bold vote considering it was multiplat but in all fairness it definitely also still sold millions on ps2 alone (which may come as a surprise to others since i see it apparently managed to bomb in america) also on a multiplat note i'd also of course been considering burnout 3 (very biased) for this but sadly i think it's just out of contention because i don't think the ps2 version even outsold sotc, let alone the rest |

UF8 04/04/24 7:06:28 PM #11 | have been playing too much Sailing Era recently (i'd estimate i've put in an extra 150 hours into a handful of playthroughs over the past couple of weeks...). also want to get back to and finish off Murders on the Yangtze River (so far only finished the first three cases before accidentally stalling it). After that I'm probably going to get around to a minor mod for 100%OJ I'd been meaning to do since they added the latest card pack a month ago, though I did also pick up a couple of neat suika game clones so fingers crossed they don't also rope me in for an extended period first lol |
