I still think the amount of points given is too little to profit. My single went #3 getting 20 points, and yet I spent 16 in Promo/ADs so the only gain I had was 4 points. Had I released it this week for the first time and had to buy it, I'd actually lost a point.
And I'm sure Collin and Zune bought much more promo/Ads than me and only got 2 and 4 more points than me so they most likely lost points rather than gained.
Also for collaborations since we're paying 11 JUST TO RELEASE IT (5 for making a single, and 6 more for it being a collab) and paying LOADS more in promotion, when we get 24 or whatever points set for a Chart Position do we each have to split that amount or do we each get the amount? Because splitting for a collab is literally THROWING AWAY POINTS like there's no way you can make profit from splitting and the extra costs for a collab.

1. Well it's all strategy
2. I'm revising the prices tonight, that's why I said not to buy anything yet until I give you the green light.
3. You're splitting the costs between people. Maybe you should be doing less promo involving points if you want bigger gains. It will obviously be bigger by itself since it's three big artists. That's why collabs cost any extra point at all.
4. The points you get are no longer set. The most points you can get is 25.
You can't magically do all this extravagant promo and buy every little thing and expect to make big gains. Maybe you might want to do that to get your artist established but otherwise it's not a great idea.
