October 16, 20223 yr Almost got the T10 perfect last week, just needed to swap Nicki & Chris, I feel like the point system isn't too fair because it's mainly about getting the new entries and albums correct, but I may be biased since I don't do well in that at all, also wow this is a hectic week. >> Predict the Official Top 10 Singles of the week << 01.

October 16, 20223 yr How would you suggest it be scored then? You weren't the only poster to almost get a perfect top 10 prediction, in fact there were five others this very week that scored 98/100 for it (myself, Conorw, RyanFM, DJ Cheeky Magpie and Jason) Not completely sure but I think maybe spots higher up should be worth more and lose more when getting wrong, like getting #9-10 swapped should have less penalty than getting #3-4 swapped, I think there should also be a bonus for getting the top n spots correct since someone could not guess the #1 album and have just 5 points less than some guessing the entire top 5, there might be better solutions or they might not be problems at all due to some logistics I haven't thought about but that's what I came up with Edit: I think both of these could be addressed by having the correct positions at the top for singles and albums be worth 12 or 15 or something points, and after a incorrect position, each correct position is worth the standard 10 Thanks for hosting these though, they're a lot of fun to do and I appreciate the work you put into these Edited October 16, 20223 yr by ~1^∞
