Crap. Any idea what's missing? I'll try to track down a backup version. Automatically Appended Next Post: Okay, I think I've got it. I've had computer troubles and must have accidentally copied from the backup file. Let me know if you find any issues.

Ha, as I listed in the previous post, I had a little hiccup. I was giving credit for April but missed one. Thank you!

I don't think it says, I think it's just "GW Design Team" these days.
Looking at the most recent stuff, should there perhaps be a closeness limit for rumours? I see Natfka getting credit for people sending him stuff from the WDW that's up for release a few days later. Should that perhaps be news rather than rumours, or is that the sort of behaviour that should be encouraged?

Hmm good call. Generally I give credit until the first scan / leaked pic comes out. Thoughts?

Given the way things are being done now at GW, I'd suggest a 30 day cut-off. If your rumor is less than 30 days out from WDW "proof" then it shouldn't be counted. This way we can discern legitimate rumor mongering from "look what accidentally shipped early?"

Hmm. I don't think that's so bad, but a lot of our stuff is early leaks. Anyone else want to chip in?
Minor updates to the first post.

Sometimes it's a bald faced lie that "something shipped early". Keep it the way it is now- they're rumors until pictures come out. It's the simplest.

Fair enough. That does keep us from evaluating 'sources' which is always difficult.

These from StrykerSniper I have some objections to:
Inq Rumors - Nov 2013
New Veteran/Stormtrooper boxed set PARTLY TRUE (only builds Stormtroopers)
Kasrkin style armor FALSE (Kasrkin is multi-layered and has fully armoured legs. This is one massive breast plate)
Hellguns, sniper rifles, specials, missle laucher, bolters, shotguns FALSE (it's only two out of six)
Respirator heads, berets, bald, mohawks PARTLY TRUE (only two out of four)
Inquisitor with long cloak and armor FALSE

Okay, I will get him updated. Just FYI, I was out of office for almost a week and will take some time to catch up. If anyone wants to feed new rumors that have come up since last friday, feel free to post here.

But his signal to noise ratio is horrible.
15/56 is like 26%. If throw enough darts blindfolded, you're bound to hit the board eventually.

I am complaining.  I also bring this stuff up on his blog as well.
He's a good aggregator but a horrible source. If he actually filtered out what he posts, he could have a lot better quality but he refuses to.

I'm sure he is. I've never met him, but he seems genuinely nice. That doesn't change the fact that he posts a lot of crap though. It's a simple fix to improve his output; I'd love to see him implement it.
