"If the apps on the category charts are doing those sorts of numbers, what do you think the rest of them are doing?"

What if Board Games and Social Networking aren't popular categories? Just because an app makes it on the chart of an un-popular sub-category of games (board games) doesn't mean the apps charting in more popular categories are doing equally as bad.

the more popular categories are even more competitive and thus harder to rank on. i had an app that just fell off the top 100 entertainment category and i was still getting 60+ downloads a day. it'll be interested to see how many sales i get now that its not listed.
