Prove? I think weve been here before. Check out how the oz tam sites work. Each station has its own unique signal, once it's recorded your a viewer.

another excuse? and I think we've been there too.

So RL ratings are also inflated by RU followers who flick over to see the score. Plus NSW and qld have the highest subscription rates so channel flickers are more likely to be from the states, and interested in RL. Plus there would be many cross coders interested in the scores of the other game. I'm sorry but your excuse is utter bs. Flicking over for a look at the score would add nothing to the ratings of a show that goes for 3 hrs. Add to that it would likely detract from the average of the show you've just turn off anyway.

You just don't like the fact that the AFL are actually kicking NrLs butt in the payTV ratings. Poor boy!

Both codes would be affected. But which code would be affected / benefit most? considering most of our games are on at different times?

I suggest you look there site up,

Dream on.

Here are the oztam sampling terms and definitions http://www.oztam.com.au/TermsAndDefinitions.aspx

They show that oztam sample each minute. It says each individual must watch at least 1 minute to be counted. Given that it samples each minute of time watched, any viewer that switches to another program for less than a minute will not be counted. Any viewer that switches for over a minute will be counted to the new program but will reduce the audience of the program they have switched over from.

Your excuses are bs as I knew they would be.

Then when he gets the score and switches back to his game, he 'll be counted again.

Nation wide coverage, an extra FTA game and most probably Pay TV simulcast eh?

Could be Monday know all, then what huh?

We could also remove 1 Friday game and have it on a Saturday, then what huh?

I'd say a massive jump, wouldn't you?

An issue I would have with X mans ratings is that some of the games (eg saturday afternoon) are on at similar times and overlap, but they are not on at exactly the same times. Saturday night is about the only time slot where the games are on at exactly the same times. Eg GWS V Essendon was on at 7.30pm melbourne time, while Adelaide V Collingwood was on at 7.00pm adelaide time (7.30pm Melbourne time).
