Well then that's exactly my point. They spiked buyrates ONCE. Wonderful. They can't keep it there so it's not like suddenly you're doing fantastic because of one anomaly (at least that's how statisticians will look at it) They could keep it around 80,000 if they had a clue what they were doing. They don't have a clue. You and I both know that. There's absolutely no reason why a TNA can only draw 2.1% of their TV audience to pay 29 dollars to watch a fake fight, when (based on SpikeTV ratings) UFC draws 75% of their audience to PPV. I was just pointing out that they drew around 80,000 with Joe-Angle, because you were using non-facts as facts in your argument as to why TNA is TEH SUCKZ. I just thought it was fair to bring up that they'd actually eclipsed their best weekly buyrates by a ton, when you said they never did. That's all. Well that is true and thanks for bringing it to my attention, but even so statistically speaking one vastly improved buyrate in a sea of ones that are around the same level sticks out as an anomaly. But you're right they HAVE done better, just not kept it that way. And it wasn't so much an arguement of TNA is TEH SUCKZ as more of a statement that PPVs are already being boycotted in a way. |

I guess even with the additional publicity, Pacman Jones doesn't equate to ratings.
As for PPV's, I'm sure if it did well, like the other Joe/Angle PPV, they'd release the number. I know I'm not getting next month's as it doesn't sound good at all,IMO.

I think it would have somewhat of an impact (no pun intended) because they're the viewers who are likely to keep watching unlike the average fan switching through the channels. I don't, not unless they have Nielsen Rating Boxes. Cause if you don't, they can't track what you are watching. They don't record every individual watching programs, they record a random sample and make estimates. If the entire IWC boycotted it wouldn't matter unless a large amount of us had Nielsen Ratings Boxes. Or prowrestling torrents account ;-) |
