Apologies, it was a partially implemented update which I hadn't meant to release just yet 🫢 , but it kind of leaked out during the server upgrade. The figures should now be consistent across the site (with 2pts per entry). The rest of the upgrade is still being tested, so look out for that some time quite soon.

No need to apologize, I just wasn't sure what was going on. Can't wait for the update. 😁

Something weird has been going on. I was immediately promoted after the upgrade and it looked like my charts were being counted as two, but the user stats still had them listed as one. Also, when you look at the user stats list, users are sorted differently by the member rank than the points, where users with tons of charts have higher ranks. This may be a partially implemented update.

I haven't seen that in effect at all. I just added mine up, and yours, and the number of albums in my charts are used only once.

Hmm, strange, I just presumed it happened as all the users positions changed drastically after the update, for example, meccalecca, who has 4000+ albums, jumped about 15 places in terms of his member rank, whereas users like HTTS who has about 100 albums dropped a similar amount, maybe more. Something has changed after the update anyway. 🤔

It happened with the update last week by the looks of things, each album is now worth 2 points instead of 1.

I thought of something. I doubt we'll use it, but what if, when you reack a level 9 at 20,000 points, your decade and year charts have more points for albums and count more towards the overall chart?

btw, that's happening to me too. When I go to edit my profile, it says I have 29389 points. But the list says I have 28,263 points. My chart size is 1126. 28263 + 1126 = 29389.

That's a really good idea, but maybe it doesn't make a ton of sense. My only fear is that would mean leveling up a little too quickly. Maybe 3 points for greatest, 2 points for decade and year, and 1 point for custom, though?

That was my fear as well. However, as album charts are the main point of the website, I think it's quite a good idea.

I think greatest album charts should be worth 5 points per entry as they are the most important part of the website. Then have decade, year and custom charts worth 3, 2, and 1 points respectively. Although this seems like too many points to give a custom chart.

I appreciate the feedback. I mentioned in a previous post about increasing the points awarded per chart entry & this is going to happen in the next site update. I think this should definitely help new users.

Quote:

agree, but there are ways people can do this without spamming. Creating a chart is a quick way to gain points. I'm thinking if the points per chart entry was increased to 2 per album, this might help new users gain a foothold without having to resort to black-hat tactics.

Any idea when said update will come?
