Since I'm a newbie to this game, I was hoping to ask this earlier but can someone please give me a brief rundown of how the points system works? I've been curious all this time.
For instance, if someone correctly predicted the actual Top 10 but had a score of -2 for this week's chart, what does that mean exactly? In my case, I wrongfully predicted Britney and Kelly between #3 and #4 and the same happened with Pink and The Fray at #7 and #8. So how was this evaluated?

Well.... Azriel made a mistake with your points You should have -4: - You lost 1 point for Circus (you predicted it as #3 and ended up as #4) - You lost 1 point for Suck (you predicted it as #4 and ended up as #3) - You lost 1 point for Sober (you predicted it as #7 and ended up as #8) - You lost 1 point for Found (you predicted it as #8 and ended up as #7) You just calculate how many wrong positions you had for each prediction. For example, I also had -4 because: - I lost 1 point for Hell (predicted it as #2 and ended up as #1) - I lost 1 point for Round (predicted it as #1 and ended up as #2) - I lost 2 points for Kiss (predicted it as #10 and ended up as #12)

You're right Juan. I made an error. That's a proof you're human after all! Woohoo!! Funny coincidence that just when our dear newbie starts playing his score had an error, hehe. However, 99% of the times Azriel does a great job, don't be worried 'Purged' ;)

I had 1.5 wins through last week, and I finished first and won the tiebreaker this week... Shouldn't I have 2.5 wins now?
Also, WE the Kings' Secret Valentine is a re-entry, not a debut.

Nah, it's all good. I just wanted to know how and why I got my score. Me worried?! Not in the least bit. In fact, I was expecting my score to be lower than what was given to me originally.
