October 27, 201015 yr I assume the two positions not given in the mids in the top 10 are these: 6 Mike Posner 7 Duck Sauce Or is it the other way round?
October 27, 201015 yr Author Cheryl sold 68,000 copies in the Tuesday midweeks and then sold a further 24,800 copies yesterday, to take her total to 92,800 copies, which is a 36% increase in sales. Now, for example, say Rihanna sold 100 copies in the Tuesday midweeks and then sold a further 200 yesterday to take her total to 300, her % increase in sales would be 200%. Rihanna has the higher % increase (200% vs. 36%), but isn't gaining on Cheryl at all (i.e. in the example above, Cheryl actually sold 24,600 copies more than Rihanna "yesterday"). The example is extreme to illustrate the point but the principle still stands. Its the absolute sales difference (i.e. total today MINUS total yesterday) that is the relevant statistic - and on that basis, Cheryl sold 24,800 copies yesterday, Rihanna 17,200 copies yesterday, therefore Cheryl increased her lead by a further 7,600 copies. Cheryl is STILL selling more than Rihanna and Rihanna now needs to heavily reverse that over the course of the next 4 days to have any chance - IMO that chance is zero unless she tragically passes away or something. excellent post :D Whatever happens Cheryl has definitely got it in the bag for this week, Rihanna's track will most likely increase Sunday to do any damage next week. I do love big single battles, this what the chart needs, if only 2 big artists can release 2 good tracks every week.
October 27, 201015 yr I hope Cheryl does some promotion this week :) just to highten her sales even more!! :D

October 27, 201015 yr Is it possible to post the full chart on here? Or would it get banned? Like exact sales. Also do you know where the Disc-Overy is?
October 27, 201015 yr I hope she does next week ! She has no promotion planned for her album release yet ! Her promotion is to appear on XF twice a week + her weak and shaky comments on the show.
October 27, 201015 yr excellent post :D Whatever happens Cheryl has definitely got it in the bag for this week, Rihanna's track will most likely increase Sunday to do any damage next week. I do love big single battles, this what the chart needs, if only 2 big artists can release 2 good tracks every week. If that happened I think these forums would be closed indefently
October 27, 201015 yr Her promotion is to appear on XF twice a week + her weak and shaky comments on the show. Whenever someone makes a comment like that - about any judge on any panel, I often wonder what they would say if they were a judge instead, because some of the spout that happens on here only leads me to believe that they would be far worse at doing the job Edited October 27, 201015 yr by Knightr634
October 27, 201015 yr Author Is it possible to post the full chart on here? Or would it get banned? Like exact sales. Also do you know where the Disc-Overy is? What's the point of posting the full chart when the mid update chart will be online on Radio 1 at 4pm and it cuts out the crap falling down the chart the way we do is quick and efficient, plus we don't have exact sales only what's posted. Disc-Overy 4+3

Disc-Overy 4+3 I meant like on most days, we don't get a mid-week chart everyday y'know! :lol: In your opinion it might be crap, but I'm sure others would want to know about it, not just me. And I wasn't asking for exact sales? :blink:
October 27, 201015 yr Her promotion is to appear on XF twice a week + her weak and shaky comments on the show. Your life seems so full of Love :wub: I meant actual promotion like TV performances or TV interviews. Dannii was a judge on the show when she released her single a few years back, and being a X Factor judge proved to be not enough to be successful. Edited October 27, 201015 yr by Bert for Lashes
October 27, 201015 yr Amazing sales for Cheryl :) :cheer: I think she'll pass the 100k mark tomorrow :wub:
October 27, 201015 yr Amazing sales for Cheryl :) :cheer: I think she'll pass the 100k mark tomorrow :wub: You think?? She only needs about 8k of sales.
October 27, 201015 yr You think?? She only needs about 8k of sales. :lol: Very good observation! How can you think, she definitely will.

October 27, 201015 yr :lol: Very good observation! How can you think, she definitely will. Be careful, your hunches don't always come true :P
October 27, 201015 yr All this chat about Cheryl increasing by 25,000... she hasn't. Her figure yesterday should have been 73.2k - combining what she sold at #27. She's actually increased by 19.6k.

You mean 5.2k is what #27 sold according to yesterday's midweeks ? 5.2k is more like what a #27 hit would have sold by today's midweeks.
