I don't look at usernames that much and I tend to skim over stan war stuff unless it's taking over like it has here.

simmnfierzig, her bias against Adele fans...

I also read everything and thought the Adele fans were baiting him the whole time. Unfair, but I'm glad to see the Adele fan who used nicknames got warned.

As for the hot 100 I think Sorry will be #1 & Same Old Love #5 next week or the week after!

Hopefully Adele can hold on two more weeks. I want a two-digit #1 for her.

After learning about CISA's passage, "stan wars" are the least of my worries. I stay out of them anyway, as they reek of immaturity.

Yes I am pressed that Adele is taking all the records from Taylor

Notes.

+I definitely think that "Hello" can make it to 10 weeks atop. I think it'll continue to benefit from holiday sales, giving it another 2-4 weeks atop. I'm starting to think that "Sorry" will unfortunately peak at #2, but I do see "Love Yourself" replacing Adele atop.
+I think that "Same Old Love" will definitely go top 5. Not this week, however. I can see it even peaking as high as #4. Especially with it growing in radio play, and having strong sales.
+I see "In The Night" making the top 10, eventually within the next 2-3 weeks. But, only peaking in the #7-10 range.
+I see "Stressed Out" making the top 10 before "In The Night" and being a contender for a new #1 in 2016.
+If "Roses" doesn't go top 20 this upcoming week, "Ex's & Oh's" will nab another week in the top 20. However, once radio is stronger, I definitely see "Roses" going top 10. It is doing great in all metrics.

How does SOL have a chance for Top 4 tho? I don't see it passing any of them

I said in a few weeks. "Hotline Bling" is falling and "What Do You Mean?" is only top 10 in one metric. They're both going to be falling eventually.

eh, some.
not enough to make me hate her like i hate...others. though it helps that she has talent.

Out of the Flood better smash.

Lets look back at the predictions for this week

Name	Correctness	Correct songs (top 20)	Total number of positions off
Ger-55	88%	14	6
simmnfierzig	87%	14	8
Popmusic	82.5%	12	11
Alexanderao	79%	10	12
Artpop	72%	8	20

Correctness is based on a little formula I invented. It's 100% - incorrect songs * 1.5% - number positions off * 0.5%. The numbers are totally random, but make sense to me.

Nobody had The Hills or Same Old Love at the correct position and 15-20 was again pretty hard to predict since it's so close there.

Congrats Ger and thanks for all the participation

Honey, your calculations must be wrong. My predictions was completly off and I should get -80% (minus)

Well, I hope next week will be better And congratulations Get @simmnfierzig, what is the your rank best result ever?

Overall standings

Name	Average Correctness	Weeks picked
Popmusic	82,5%	1
Ger-55	79.88%	8
simmnfierizig	79.19%	8
Alexanderao	78.4%	5
Artpop	74.42%	6

This week wasn't that hard to predict. Lets see if Popmusic can keep it up

Delete it

I don't make mistakes
You had 1-5 correct as everyone and you had 9 - 14 correct and the songs you had wrong were only off by 1 or 2 positions.



The 88 and 87 this week are the 2 best marks we have had so far. So you really picked the easiest week possible to join us

All predictors are amazing tbh. Thank you all for your hard work

Banned ?

Seems like everything fell into place indeed



Sorry might overtake Hello..but streaming is really unpredictable

After experiencing how delusional and cruel Lady Gaga fans were back in the day, I really can't get annoyed at any Justin Bieber or Adele fans. They are NOTHING compared to that, and Justin and Adele both have decent music.

The only fans that come close to how the Lady Gaga fans used to be is Beyonce fans, since they celebrate failures of other artists and often have difficulty taking criticism of her, but Beyonce also has decent music, and Beyonce's fans aren't quite THAT ridiculous, some of them just need to think a bit more rationally about who Beyonce is.

These Adele stans are cancer
