Year end Album Charts

Recommended Posts

The problem we had with year end single sales, that got fixed (where the charts would only show sales of songs that were released within the past year and not just the sales of songs in the past year regardless of release date). That problem was fixed but that problem is happening again with albums year end charts. maybe this wasnt changed last time with the singles charts

Really ill run some checks but this would be extremely weird because its handled completely differently from a few weeks ago. It wont clear the yearly data until the new year so only data added within the year is used. But it will only calculate the sales within that year.

Im currently at the date 2nd Jan 2023 (as seen in picture 1). Ed sheerhan releases a album on Jan3rd 2022 (so within the year) (seen in picture 2). He sold 800,000 sales in UK with this album (which should make hm number 1) (seen in picture 3). But as you can see, my artist "DNA" are number 1 with 700,000 copies (picture 4). This happens with every country not just the UK. Ive also attached the save for you @Mark. I only noticed this error occur as 2 weeks prior (in in-game time) i noticed I was 100k sales away from the number 1 spot (which ed sherran had), then all of a sudden, when i got into a new year, he wasnt even on the charts anymore.

@Markย Its also happening with singles as well. If you use the save above, you will see that ed sheerhan released a song called "blaze of glory" at the same time as his album in the UK but isnt on the yearly singles charts in the UK.

Forgot to add the year is jan to jan. So was he not showing up on there in the yearly chart in 2022? It gets reset on Jan 1st its not a year to date but fixed Jan to jan year.

So songs can't chart on multiple years?

Im a little confused with this so I'm just asking this for clarification ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

As the year goes on, my sales increase and that puts it higher up on the yearlyย charts each week, so is this not year to date charting rather than end of fixed year charting?

For example, ed sherhan stopped being in this charts as his song was over a year old. But my arista song was still less than a year old and therfore was still getting higher and higher on the chart each week I checked regardless of if it was a new year?

To be more clear. I will use the end of year report data in future.

The way it works now is it only runs a rolling year chart so when they go off sale they disappear but feature in end of year data.
