Would you be okay being disclosed publicly that you're part of this? (If you leave a blank answer, you answer will be defaulted to the first option) >There are only simple three questions in the sign-up sheet, two of them are required. You will also get the chance to edit your response after you submitted! Don't worry, I will not know your e-mail addresses.

The program then ranks the songs based on points. >This goes on and on until the program has checked everyone's top 10. And then, the program looks at another person's last.fm and their top 10songs of the week and repeats the same process. This continues until the least played song on my top 10 gets 5 points. Then the second most played song of the same week will get 14 points, third most played song will get 13 points. The program will give the song 15 points. For example, my most played song of the week is Bon Appetit. Instead, it will give points to a song depending on the position of the song from that someone's last.fm. >This program does not look at the play counts of those top 10 songs of the week. >A program developed by /u/letsallpoo tracks down everyone's top 10 tracks from their last.fm accounts from the days of Friday Midnight GMT to Thursday 11:59 GMT. >So you're wondering, where does this chart gets its data and information from?
