Quote from: marthamarks on December 01, 2020, 17:11I just looked at the chart on the right. The "Top Tier - Big 4" is down to 3 with the lowest of those being DT at 3.1.Looks like the whole game is now between AS and SS. For those of us who took ourselves out of SS, the pickings left behind are pathetically slim.Or, as somebody else said, not much motivation.EDITED TO ADD (2 days later): the numbers on the chart have shifted. There now are an actual "Big 4" and DT has dropped to #6. This makes more sense. I'm actually glad to see that change.Maybe people reading the thread decided to vote? But honestly, and Leaf is the only one who can answer how it works, until an agency gets 50 votes, it shows nothing. I don't know how long the time period is for a vote sticking, before it rolls off.

I don't know how long the time period is for a vote sticking, before it rolls off.I didn't realise it was as many as 50.Anyway, when I saw that remark about the Big 4 and saw iS was off it, I realised I hadn't polled, so I put mine in, and the next time I looked, the iS stats (both!) appeared. That could have been pure coincidence, I couldn't possibly say. But would me voting bring up both iS indie and iS exclusive? Maybe - they're linked in some way; I don't poll for Alamy because when I do that, my iS score goes into indie. A friend pointed out he's exclusive for stills on iS, and doesn't submit video to iS, but does submit video to SS, P5 but if he puts his video income there, his iS stills exclusive income goes into iS indie on the poll.

Long time, no see. Glad to see some old members still around. I hope you are all fine in these tough days.
I think once the "old" ranters and "troublemakers" either got banned or left any forum will slowly die out. They sort of keep the place alive. Some of the old ranters here was BIG contributors as well. As an example just look at the DPR forum!
First time I've looked here for months. I used to ba addicted to this forum. I think it just got too depressing. I miss the Lucky Oliver days

I miss the Lucky Oliver days Wow old school. Haven't heard Lucky Oliver brought up in a long time. Back when micro was still like the USA Wild West and entrepreneurs had the opportunity to experiment with new concepts. Lucky Oliver was fun.
