Title: Is there a way to see statistics of everyone on the site?
Post by: tafk on March 10, 2015, 12:35:04 pm
Like a summary tab? I'd love to see how I stack up to everyone on the site in terms of collection size. Or maybe we could filter based on system, like maybe I'm #40 for PS2 or something? I think that would be really cool if its possible to implement.

That would be cool as long as people don't lie about their collections

It might be cool but I think it would be inaccurate. For example, I only have my games and systems on here. I didn't list all the Player's Guides I have or my almost 300 Skylanders, because that wasn't what I wanted to track. Other people, on the other hand, have listed that extra merchandise. Nothing wrong with listing it or not listing it, but it would throw off the comparison numbers.

I mean it ultimately is just comparison numbers of things logged. I just thought it would be interesting to see where I sit any maybe get some inspiration of what to collect.

I would love this, I was wondering about this a while ago. I would like to see how my games stack up against others.

Click on a user's profile picture in their collection page to go to their about page. It shows some statistics, but not all of 'em.

I'm looking more for comparison statistics and analysis. Those numbers, while nice, don't really put it into a ranking with everyone.
