If you guys thought that things were going to slow down submission wise after the contest run in may, boy were you wrong. Game images may have been way down comparatively, but the other important info kept pouring in. Game Edits and Non Image Game Submissions where somehow actually higher in June than during the Submission contest. We're talking 2300+ more Game Edits and 1900+ more Non Image Game Submissions than in May!!
Considering there was no incentive other than to better the database/community (not greedy people like me trying to cash in on a prize) I find the month's numbers to be amazing. The real shining star of June though was someone you'rE definitely familiar with if you frequent the forums. Our very own Postmaster General, Defender of Variants and all around Mortal Kombat aficionado,
Izret101! He had more than 3x the submissions of his closest competitor for the month.
But the others weren't slacking off either. In total we had 10 members make over 100 submissions each last month. So if you run into Shadow Kisuragi, y2richie, pdrydia, ixtaileddemonfox, raffa1985, ApolloBoy, blcklblskt, aeroc, or Marriott_Guy on the street make sure to give them a great big hug for their contributions to RF Generation. There were dozens of other members who found the time to add anywhere from 1-99 items to improve our database also.
And lets not forget the staff members who work tirelessly and often thanklessly to approve all those submissions. Shadow Kisuragi lead the way with over twice his nearest comrades approvals. Also make sure to thank Tynstar, ApolloBoy, Izret101, NES_Rules, ga5ket and Paully3433 for their behind the scenes contributions to the site approving (or rejecting) the thousands of submissions sent in last month.
Thanks for the incredible commitment to keep improving an already fantastic place everybody!
For anyone interested in checking out the stats for themselves just highlight the part on the top bar that says "Submit" and then click on "Submission Stats" or just use this link:

Thanks everyone!
And for those who didn't make the list this month, wait a little while longer, everyone will be getting the chance to make an obscene number of page edits soon.

Happy to help. Sorry for the handful of mistakes I sent through, though.

@NES_Rules: DUN DUN DUNNNNN!!!
|

@NES_Rules: I am now very curious. (Also, I might hit 100+ this month.  )
|

@e4g:
Once NES_Rules makes his announcement, you may be able to hit 1000+ in a month...
Knowing you, you'll at least hit 500+.

I'm very curious now. I want to be in the top ten, which is currently about 3,000 subs away.

Is this a spot on RFgeneration where I can make sugestions on what I would like to see on that website if it was possible? I would really love to see a not only how many games you have in your collection but also a second number telling you how much you have total with doubles included.
I also would like to see who really tryuly tops the leader board collection wise. I have noticed alot of the people on the top numbers arent legit. Most of them have games added in there collection with everything zero'ed out.

@Tadpole13: A topic in the The ThinkTank (http://www.rfgeneration.com/forum/index.php?board=22.0) usually gets more views.
I don't know if having two numbers like you described is possible, but you can do it manually. On you profile page (http://www.rfgeneration.com/cgi-bin/collection.pl?name=Tadpole13&folder=Collection&action=profile) go to "Manage" and then "Settings" check the box labeled "Ignore Duplicates" and go back to your profile. Now it will display your total with duplicates included. Its a little bit of work to switch back and forth, but it may be the best option for now.
As for the "leader boards" I don't think any of those people are cheating. They're just too lazy to fill in the proper numbers and leave them zeros. They may only have loose games, or CIB games, or simply don't care if they have the box/manual. I know its hard to imagine having as many games as some people here do, but they do.

I clicked the button ignore duplicates and clicked apply and I tryed it with dublicates and without and it still showed my total as 1032. Am I missing something?
