Just a Gay on ATRL Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) I didn't even know their was a rule against predictions in here (allegedly). Is this actually a thing - if it is that rule needs to be changed anyway. Without predictions discussing charts is boring - we make direct and indirect predictions in every chart thread (IE on iTunes "wow The Cure is freefalling, it will be out of the Top 25 by tomorrow" -- that's a prediction).

Unbreakable Heaven Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 @simmnfierzig keep on doing your thing ok? besides it's not only simmn that makes predictions. others do too. without their predictions I wouldn't even be checking in here.

Use the words estimates that's what this forum has been doing where the weekly BB thing is a not new thing. A couple or so years older actually. For years, these were done. They were adding iTunes sales and radio AI: https://classic.atrl.net/?p=3036030 7 minutes ago, ChartsFan said: Thanks for pointing out how it is supposed to be. Those predictions were posted in BASE. Not in the weekly be thread. From the forum rules Chart prediction threads should be posted in Base. All I see is the key word: THREADS in BASE, to which this forum's users and chart gurus have respectfully obliged both in oldTRL: http://classic.atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1034887 http://classic.atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=869969 And nuTRL: Don't see nothin' about prediction posts though.

Little Dark Age Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 stay blocking IAM from top 10 hope it comes true

While this still sucked, st least it was more a community effort. Now the thread has become the simm prediction thread, known internet wide as such, the vast majority of posts are about the predictions. This posts start even before the weekly current charts are known. its not such s huge request to have thet lived to base as the rules say, and let those of us that want a weekly chart thread to have one. We should be allowed to have such without needing to contend with simm the rock star and the flock of followers. SIMM does good work, give him the proper venue and let us have a weekly chart thread. the problem is, you are NOT making the rules and it seems like your interpreting them wrong and it's wildly exxagerated that we only talk about predictions in this thread.. we also had discussions on who's where, and about the streaming debate and like I said, this is still a pop culture forum, if you don't like it here, then find something else that's fun.. because no rules are explicitly being broken

You're the only one wanting his predictions out of here though... Also you are correct that it used to be a community effort of predictions, which still happens at times. But Simm works the hardest at it and is the most accurate so many other "predictors" stopped and left it to the professional.

All this says to me is that simm is an amazing predictor and has been recognized as such for his awesome chart predictions This thread been's more alive now than a lot of the mid 2010s when there were weeks it was practically dead (correct me if I'm wrong but I def stopped checking the BB threads for long stretches sometimes)/ Predictions have been a quintessential part of this thread since I joined in Feb 2010, back when we were just using sales and airplay. There were a couple years no one could figure out how to make good predictions with streaming and sim seems to have cracked the code so we're all ecstatic (including me). I think he's brought a lot of people back and even some new ones. I mean, as another example, you look at someone like kworb who cracked the code for tracking itunes bars and positions and even radio airplay and he's regarded as a chart legend now that even some artists themselves keep track of (PSY, ZAYN, Gaga, for example). Without kworb the itunes thread would be a ****ing joke now and we basically go through him to check it. So, yes, we wait for his posts like people do simm here but that just makes it more exciting. They're an example of talent winning (the ATRL saying we all know - art imitating life i guess). Edited April 30, 2017 by MusicTalker

Chartsfan ignored my post in which I clocked him. His argument would also then stop people from posting iTunes and Airplay updates in songs specific threads in the music section and only allow to share that information in the iTunes and Airplay threads in the charts section. Also if a song were to go top 10 on the Hot 100 I guess you couldn't celebrate anymore in the songs thread and you can only mention it in this thread. So dumb tbh...

Just simply have its own thread. Let those of us, be it just me or ten or s million others discuss the current t charts in a current chart thread. if we get two posts or two hundred pages so be it. There doesn't need to be a certain amount of posts to be "alive" but once again YOU CAN STILL DISCUSS THE CURRENT CHARTS IF YOU WANT TO don't shoot us for wanting to discuss something else
Skins Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Why are y'all even giving Chartsfan the time of day.... like he needs to build a bridge and get over it

It all got derailed because of Chartfan who claims to want the opposite in this thread. id say the last time the top 3 was this close was with All Of Me, Problem, and Fancy. Only difference this time is that all 3 are looking to reach #1
