A simple example:
Day 1: +5 spins
Day 2: 10 spins total (+5 spins)
Day 3: 15 spins total (+5 spins)
Day 4: 20 spins total (+5 spins)
Day 5: 25 spins total (+5 spins)
Day 6: 30 spins total (+5 spins)
Day 7: 35 spins total (+5 spins)
Day 8: 33 spins total (+3 spins)
And then day 9 replaces day 2's update and so on.
I just used consistent spin updates of 5 and then a random number (here, 3) to show you the difference it can make. In reality, most radio updates are way larger and differ day to day. Songs can also get negative spins.
If I'm wrong in anyway, someone point out my error(s) lmfao.

Aatthew is the champ.
Brings me back to my dominance on pulse music boards explaining to the newbies on how the system works.
I know following my retirement the stats will be in great hands.
Anaconda's wasn't as bad as I expected in the rolling effect.
It's usually bigger with first and second singles as come 3rd single and beyond it's not nearly as massive of a fall as they slowly start playing the songs and tracking its audience after album release anyways.
