[𝓲𝓽'𝓼.𝓰𝓿]

I've officially come full circle...

1. Zach : PERFECT PICKS

𝓲𝓽'𝓼.𝓰𝓿 : PERFECT PICKS

feoba : PERFECT PICKS


𝓲𝓽'𝓼.𝓰𝓿 is awarded his first half win and enters the standings. feoba and I also get half wins and move to #10 on the year's standings. This was a really good week overall with even the people who got -8 and -10 having great predictions through the #9 spot but Strip That Down screwed their results.

My very first Billboard Hot 100 prediction win came from this very chart date 6 years ago, and it's a perfect prediction too! And here I am 6 years later, now about to open this chart week's predictions thread now handling the results as well.

"Last Night"'s time at the top is slowly ticking, with "Fast Car", "Cruel Summer", and future Olivia Rodrigo may threaten its chances at Hot 100 history.

LET'S GET IT!

1. fengyu = -2
Zoibator = -2
Groovy = -2

4. awesomecharts = -3
Future Captain = -3
Baby Yoda Hot100Fan = -3 (-1 for Friday prediction)

7. 𝓲𝓽'𝓼.𝓰𝓿 = -4
greggpo = -4
joshtheking = -4
mikeymonster = -4
jasper0102 = -4

12. kcdawg13 = -6

A tame week with not much of movement within the Top 10, and three predictors taking a half-win in the process (with Groovy getting his first win and Zoibator being another win away, now regardless if it is a half-win or a full win to be on top of the Over-All Standings)

Though admittedly, it would've been real poetic if I won on this chart week, with the 08/19/2017 chart week being my very first prediction win. Though the 08/19 chart week in 2017 and 2023 shared having 3 winners.
