So, is this REALLY by populairty?
« on: February 05, 2010, 04:53:13 am »


So... White Land I is more popular than a Godsmack or Nickelback song? What did I do wrong?

'Popularity' as in how many times the song has had a score submitted to the servers.  Nothing more.

Nickleback haters, that's not the point! I highly doubt that an F-Zero song has submitted more scores than SOOL by Godsmack, LR. That was only one screenshot because other songs were not able to be taken in that specific snip that I have seen more scores in.

I've seen other random songs you would presume less popular appearing higher than popular songs

On Friday when the new radio songs appear, the popularity list gets "reset". I'm not sure what exactly they do since most of the songs that were previously on the popular list reappear on it.

I wondered about the "sorted by popularity" ordering as well, but this seems to make sense, cause it was when the radio songs changed that I noticed the ordering seem to get scrambed up. xD

So it's more of a sorted by popularity since last Friday than overall popularity

Well then what's the point of having that tab? I mean, unless you're a real hardcore radio player. I'd like to make a motion to have that based on an overall popularity, or at least on a month-by-month basis. Anyone to second it?

Recent popularity (past week etc) and all time popularity would be good

Or take off the Radio songs and the Orange Box Soundtrack. Voila, instant actual popular list.
