Posted April 10, 200619 yr A Newish Competition = PREDICT THE UK TOP 10 SINGLES & ALBUMS FOR SUNDAY 23rd APRIL CHART :cheer: :dance: :cheer: :dance: All you have to do is predict what the Top 10 Singles & Top 10 Album chart will be (in order) come the chart countdown on SUNDAY 23rd APRIL. The point scoring will be as follows: Everyone starts off with 200 POINTS A point will be deducted for each chart prediction a record is away from its actual chart position. (For example: if you've predicted a record to be at #3 & it's at #11, then you will lose 8 POINTS). If you have predicted a record to be inside the Top 10 & it is outside the Top 40 - then the chart position will be assumed to be #41 (However records that are postponed/pulled/ineligible from their release date at the last minute - will count as NON RELEASES (N/A) - you will not lose points other than those for missing a record inside the Top10 - See Below. In addition if you have failed to predict a record that is inside the Top 10 - then your score will be deducted - 2x points of it's charted position (Example: #1 = 2x10 = 20 POINTS; #2 = 2x9 = 18 POINTS ...down to #10 = 2x1 = 2 POINTS) & 3x points if it is a New Entry* (Example: #1 = 3x10 = 30 POINTS; #2 = 3x9 = 27 POINTS.... down to #10 = 3x1 = 3 POINTS). *New Entry = 1st week of physical sales - so it may be a record's 2nd week on the chart! (Bloody confusing OCC rules!!!) However you can pick up bonus points by predicting the actual sales of the number 1 single & number 1 album. The closest will get a bonus of 15 POINTS; 2nd closest =10 POINTS; 3rd closest = 5 POINTS. If it is an unpredictable week & the weekly winner has a total of less than 100 Points - that week's winner score will be pegged at 100 POINTS & everyone else will get the equivalent score below 100 points (eg. the Top score is 83; & the 2nd place person has 76 - then the scores will be moved up by 17 points to 100 & 93 respectively). If the last placed person is 100 or more points behind the winner then their score will be 0 points for the week. Post your Top 10 Predictions before MONDAY EVENING (c.18:00 Hrs) on 17TH APRIL. It may be a good strategy to edit/enter your entry at the weekend due to singles being pulled from release & have a good idea what the chart is on that Sunday (via midweeks, etc) Many Thanks for all of your entries on GAME – Sunday 16thApril Chart.

April 11, 200619 yr one thing? why are some records highlighted in bold? always seem to be very random selection
April 11, 200619 yr Author one thing? why are some records highlighted in bold? always seem to be very random selection It's just a bit of a guide. Ages ago it was suggested to me that I highlight tracks that are liable to do damage to the upper part of the chart because in the earliest weeks of the game, people were complaining of not spotting future chart friendly records from the list. Of course these lists are liable to be inaccurate to some degree, due to changes because of records being pulled from release, etc or potential Top10 records absent from this list being then added for released in this week. :lol:
