Top 20 Listens...

agent1786	Date: January 24, 2004 @ 6:15 AM I have a question, when does the top 20 listens of the day for each genre start over? Like what time? I would assume midnight, but what timezone?
Cryxan	Date: January 24, 2004 @ 6:25 AM DMusic's timezome is in the Eastern Time Zome in the USA, but the whole charting system will be changing sometime not too long from now, so it's not carved in stone.
agent1786	Date: January 24, 2004 @ 7:45 AM how does it work? Are the ones you see on there acutally Todays, or are they yesterday's listens tallied up? If they are actually todays, is there an IP Filter that stops one person from listen to a song repetitively to up the song on the charts?
Cryxan	Date: January 24, 2004 @ 8:28 AM There is an IP filter that prevents self or repetitive streaming from bringing up a track in the charts. Beyond that, it's hard to anwer too many details because the system originally set up to create the charts is somewhat of a mystery... which is why it's being rewritten.
agent1786	Date: January 24, 2004 @ 8:28 AM Also, does it count full and partial listens, or just full? I just wanna know where my songs stand on the list... thanks for all the help
agent1786	Date: January 24, 2004 @ 8:30 AM lmao... we posted at the same time - but that is my final question (the one above me). Thanks for the help, and the time you spent on helping me - i appreciate it! 100,000 points to ya - DJ Hyse ( http://hysell.dmusic.com )
Cryxan	Date: January 24, 2004 @ 8:33 AM No problem, and you're welcome. I think I'd probably be more helpful if I wasnt so right now....
