Sorry, I don't trust my own tags so I've been looking at Scaruffi and RYM a lot, and Scruffles bases years off of when they were recorded (just realized that) and I also forget to switch the year on custom charts a lot
>nd Scruffles bases years off of when they were recorded
....Why are you trusting Scaruffi?
Looks like we're almost done.
Also, I'd recommend you start the thread a little bit earlier, as that might contribute to the shortage of activity in this thread.
Bro don't make it look like the thread is over we still need albums.

If Topsters doesn't save this I'm gonna be pissed.
>topsters didn't save it
At least you got some nice digits.
What does it need to be saved for?
Kind of a pleb at using topsters
>What does it need to be saved for
Basically saving it to my topsters account makes it easier in case I'm using another PC without the image saved.
When it's on topsters I can just download it onto any PC whereas if I just have the one copy of the image it's only on one computer and if someone wants that chart I can't get it for them.
probably a stupid idea, but if you have a gmail you can email it to yourself, then download it to whatever computer you want to send it from
I already have all the other charts saved there, bud. I'm not gonna stop now.
got it
A big thanks to everyone who helped, by the way.
I look forward to listening to what I can find.
