there are only so many people that haven't bought it yet, and maybe only half of those are willing to at some point. an update won't convince too many other people to buy. that's why we saw the march madness app for a couple days up there, then it went bye bye, there are only so many people in the market for it. ranking in the top 100 is not a sign of how good ones program is, it is only a sign of how many people are buying it each day. did you ever think that during those days at #1 so many people bought it, that it may never beat out new coming games that get 100 downloads a day meanwhile PG might only get 5 or 10 new customers during a day. Everyday the pocketgod buying pool shrinks, and updates especially updates like PG don't make new customers run out and buy it. ala the iDracula decline the marketed it to have everyoen buy right away, then it falls after its not cheap anymore. the update doesn't make people that liek puzzle games or card games run out and buy it so the market is still the same size. By both pocketgod and idrac getting so popular and beating the competition by a lanslide, it ultimatley hurt them in the ratings.

nothing gold can last forever.

Personally, I think we are going to see Wolf3D at the #1 spot for a couple days soon. Hopefully that will convince John to release spear of destiny as well too.

I'm going to start a new thread called 101 Reasons why Pocket God is better than Hodapp. I'm going to post it in the games forum too.

Pocket God will fall just like iShoot and iDracula. So many people with iDevices have this application that I'm sure it'll, sooner or later, fall down down down...

We arent anywhere near 1 mil purchases yet. we are about half that right now. I think the app can still sell, might not get to #1 again, but I think it can stay at the top 20 for a long time. Our updates do help getting new cusomers but if you consider that some free games get 2.5 mil downloads, its possible to not sink as fast as iDracula. Plus Apple sells new devices every day, you can still do well with those new users.

Ok well if you guys aren't near a million I'm sure you guys will stay at that Top 20 chart maybe for a few months? My prediction seems wrong now that you guys have said the numbers. I'm surprised it's only half a million. Almost everyone with an iDevice seems to have this app (well all the people that I know of).
