Back in the day when I first got the idea for the
Movie Statistics page, the vast majority of submissions had an actual accurate rerecord count.
Nowadays, however, all the statistics about rerecords are useless. There are many submissions where rerecords do not tell anything useful because 99.9% of them are bot-generated, and in others the actual rerecord count has been either lost (often several times during the creation of the run) or, in a few cases, deliberately tampered with.
It would be nice if the movie files were somehow able to keep track of bot-generated rerecords and human-generated rerecords separately, but that's not the case (and most probably it's never going to happen.) Those
could be interesting and could be used for useful statistics, but as it is now, the rerecord stats are mostly just garbage.
So what to do with the statistics related to rerecords? As much as it saddens me, I think I'll just have to remove them from the statistics page. As said, they serve little useful purpose anymore. However, I'm open to suggestions. (Note that currently I only have editor rights, though.)
(This isn't unprecedent. Back in the day download statistics were actually accurate and interesting. However, after repeated tracker resets, and the advent of the youtube and archive.org uploads, they became just completely non-descriptive, so I removed them. Their individual pages can still be accessed, but they aren't in the main statistics page anymore.)
