[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 8530742, member: 1"] Out of curiosity, I decided to figure out how many sales equated to each 'medal' on DTRPG (I've never paid any attention to those medals, and in all these years and over 800 products, never known what they actually meant, so figured it was time to rectify that.) [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.drivethrurpg.com/metal.php[/URL] So I took a spreadsheet sales report of the 853 products from ENP on DTRPG, and sorted them in descending order by sales numbers and looked for the break points. I have no adamantine products, so can't speak to how many sales that is. But for the other medals, this is what they mean as best I can tell: [LIST] [*][B]Adamantine [/B](0.12% of all products on DTRPG) -- ??? [*][B]Mithral [/B](0.28% of all products on DTRPG) -- [B]around 2216+[/B] (somewhere between 2054 and 2378) [*][B]Platinum [/B](1.47% of all products on DTRPG) -- [B]around 1193+[/B] (somewhere between 1191 and 1194) [*][B]Gold [/B](3.77% of all products on DTRPG) -- [B]around 483+[/B] (somewhere between 474 and 492) [*][B]Electrum [/B](7.32% of all products on DTRPG) -- [B]244+[/B] [*][B]Silver [/B](15.05% of all products on DTRPG) -- [B]99+[/B] [*][B]Copper [/B](13.69% of all products on DTRPG) -- [B]61+[/B] [/LIST] These are the lower bounds (so Silver is 99-244). Where it says 'around' it's because I have products just above and below, but not close enough together to narrow it down, so I took the mid-point. But it could be anywhere in that range. Where there's just a number, I have products exactly on the break points (ie for Silver I have products with 98 and 99 sales, so I know it's exactly 99). I don't know whether DMs Guild uses the same scale as DTRPG, (I have no products on there). Obviously, these change, as the rankings are based on % of overall products on DTRPG. [/QUOTE]
