I think taking out the worst weeks isn't too good of an idea, as that would skew the data quite a bit. Maybe just the first weeks? Something like if a song charts weeks 21 you take out week 1?

It's kinda hard to explain in english, but I'll try: We divide the total points by the number of weeks right? Well, for songs that lasted more than 20 weeks we should not count their worst two positions for the total points, but when we divide those points by the number of weeks we still count those two weeks we took out. #1 #3 #9 #10 Short example, here we take out #9 and #10 for the total points so 1+3=4 But now when we divide those 4 points we do count all the weeks: 4/4=1. Obviously we do this for songs with more than 20 weeks as I said before. Monsters never die. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really cuz we're dividing the sum by a larger number Why did this turn into a math lesson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antonio 27,762 Posted June 7, 2017 Author Share Posted June 7, 2017 @Fernster7 @SinnersVenus lets just keep the original formula all the weeks added up divided by number of weeks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda extreme example but it could happen, anyway let's stick to the normal formula. **** longevity lmao Monsters never die. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
