Yeah. I think Billboard apply adjusted ratios based on the general trends of the time, so you'll likely get something that caught a lucky timing break. There's a certain 'nothing could have been done' angle to it when they pull it out of thin air though. No chance to galvanise the Teddyheads.

There's a very arbitrary thing about their placement which is that they defied recurrency rules for so long that Billboard made up new rules to immediately annex them. It could have happened at any point in time. Just Billboard choosing how to write its own history.

it's funny that Mariah seems like one of the harder ones to argue with, and yet she has the biggest artificial leg up since it's the one song that gets to thrive its eternal spikes.

Everything else accrues social capital beyond chart life but is frozen where they were the week before chart exit.

The paradox of being simultaneously curious and deeply incurious about modern music

I don't want to give anything to them, but I can't help but be fascinated. Imagine someone giving this the tick of approval to post it and be seen by tens of thousands of people (maybe more)

Get morbidly fascinated by those images that are 12 examples of 'a thing' with pictures & descriptions, and the query just gets more unfocused as it goes along until it both disregards the prompt and makes stuff up.

Mistakes = engagement, only encourages this unfortunately.

I feel like whenever something like this happens, people get stuck just listening to those first torchbearers and never move on, sewing the seeds of the inevitable 'back when country music was good' comments under Zach Bryan YouTube comment sections

It's only the plethora of aerial combat that makes me question the original crest, because the delayed diagonal pogos are expected of you so much more than seems necessary, unless they just expect me to spam tools

Ah yeah, totally valid. It's funny that I decided to stick with the original crest thinking the game was designed around it, but when I played the Cuphead DLC, I ignored the new character it was made in mind of...because I didn't want to have to learn a new move set

I don't mind having options, but auto equipping them (and thus losing your compass temporarily) makes me not want to get them.

My issue is damage being so inflated/healing so rigid that it takes so many HP/silk upgrades for it to feel impactful
