Very Scary Stats

Postby Pierrot Le Fou » Sun Jan 26, 2003 2:04 pm

I was just reading some of the stats on the member page, and I saw some
shocking stats. Apparently Linkin Park is by far the most used band with
723 AMVs out of 13 787. That may not seem like alot, but it has a lead
of 532 vids over second place (System of A Down). I had no idea that
Linkin Park has such a stranglehold on AMVs. Of course 90% of the SOAD
AMVs are "Chop Suey/NGE" vids. :oops: (BTW I LOVE SOAD). Comments
on this stat encouraged. Why does LP have so many AMVs?

Don't flame him, even though we are generally already of these frightening stats, it's sometimes necessary to be reminded of the frightening reality.

I think that's two words and a letter. Can you count "Z" by itself as a word?

SOAD- Chop Suey is divided into 2 main categories - NGE, and AS.

The cause to LP and SOAD? They saturate all broadcast points -.-.

Along the lines of the Eva and "Angels deserve to die", I am surprised that no one has done a vid using "Ah, My Goddess" to the Exies "My Goddess" :?

Perhaps we will get a flood of unworthyness in a couple of months.

My first video was to Linkin Park-One Step Closer....because it really wasnt overused at the time..i only saw one other video.Then when i actually got it into better quality and onto the net...there were millions spawned...so i got ragged on hard.I found it kinda mean and crappy of them..cause i didnt know it was overused by then till it was to late...of course now i try to stray from any songs used by anyone else period now..think i should have done that then.. >.>

Let me off the hook? Don't make me laugh. I'm sure I can handle the
flaming of anyone that uses a badly resized ak-47 for an av.

Yeah I saw the number of DBZ vids too, which was much scarier, but
I thought it was alot more logical considering how mainstream it is. What
surprised me was that NGE was second. I figured it would be Sailor Moon.
But I guess that's why SOAD is second (mentioned earlier).

NGE's 2nd spot actually makes perfect sense if you split your demographics. You have your initiated Otaku, aka most of us around here,and you have your uninitiated, which are the newbies watching TV for their anime. While DBZ ranks as the most popular by leaps and bounds among the uninitiated, the initiated by and large dislike DBZ, half of them abhor it and would repeat the crusades against it, and a few initiated actually love it, but anyway, the initiated's top fave is typical NGE. The uninitiated just outnumber the initiated by a considerable amount.
