Just wondering

Post by chhum »

Reading Yak's blog I know he isn’t too happy with the sales figures for SG. But does anyone know what the current figures actually are?

I assume you can get a ballpark idea by looking at the number of entries in the leaderboard. Every purchased copy gets an entry there, yes?

The leaderboards only show peeps who've played it since the patch, since one of things that did was wipe the boards.

"Yes"
!!!!

OK – badly worded question. If someone would care to share I'd be genuinely interested. Even the leader board figure would be quite interesting (I don't have an Xbox – waiting for the PC port).

Donations?

Post by chhum »

OK – thanks. It doesn't seem too bad to me to be honest but I don't suppose it generates enough revenue to actually live off.

I was wondering if there was any way of donating some money to the cause – has Llamasoft got a Paypal account or something? What do folks think of this as an idea generally? Any other suggestions for ways we might help tied Jeff and Giles over while they're building Llamasoft up again?

Buy a T-shirt (can't remember the link for those), or buy one of the games from http://www.llamasoft.co.uk/frontpage.php ("Games to Buy" link on the right).

donating's a bit suck. why not buy some merchandise? GR++ is well worth a fiver, too. :)

edit: ah, too late.
I made a deviantart page.

Merchandise is a good plan. I can think of one or two people who might like a Llamasoft t-shirt for Christmas also...

According to this site it´s a bit higher than that, but still not stellar, unfortunately.

EDIT: Most recent list just in. Better weekly numbers for SG. :D
