What do you consider successful then

Personally I don't know how they tabulate such things....I think they just estimate anyway! No way they could have an even close to accurate dollar figure!

Hey, I know it looks like I lost...and no problem...but, c'mon....you said bomb.....It is definitely not a bomb.


Oh and its currently at number 31 on the all time list....so it did break the top 50.
