[QUOTE="ShinHakkaider, post: 5437588, member: 9213"] My response was to Wicht who posted: I responded with: The first part of it is me basically telling him that it doesn't matter if it does come in at #1 because people who are not fans of Paizo, who don't like Pathfinder, who want to see Pathfinder fail or who dont like or cant get past the idea that maybe, just MAYBE their game of choice (which is in this case 4E) may not be doing as well as they'd like, are going to say that whatever barometer that was used to judge sales isn't accurate. When these same people, years, even months ago were using Icv2 and Amazon sales to convince everyone who would listen, but especially those who were NOT 4E fans that it was doing well or better than well. Basically if he was looking to that ICv2 list to prove anything that it wouldn't to anyone who DIDNT WANT to be convinced. Which leads into the second part of my statement, which was aimed at him and 4E people who use these things to show that their game of choice is doing well. I dont see how one is in direct opposition to the other unless you are drastically misinterpreting what I said or are looking for a fight by saying that I said something that I didnt. Either way I hope this clears things up a bit. [/QUOTE]
