Let's begin now! Post your 10 favorite albums and your obscurity score!

Why don't you put your trip on when you make this post?

Hi, Avant-Math. Honestly, I did a few changes (mostly to do with me getting rid of Revolver and Quadrophenia because they mean too much to me in a plethora of ways, so they can't accurately judge whatever I've got in an obscurity score).

>The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute
>You Slut! - Critical Meat
>Mouse on the Keys - The Flowers of Romance
>She Her Her Hers - stereochrome
>Bill Evans Trio - The Complete Live At The Village Vanguard
>Asobi Seksu - Citrus
>Titãs - Titanomaquia
>the pillows - Runners High
>Venetian Snares - Rossz Csillag Alatt Született
>Le Orme - Felona E Sorona

Raw obscurity score of about 5. Obscurity score at about... 0.54. I'm half-tempted to call bollocks, but at the same time, yeah, that's roughly ok.

So that the thread doesn't get derailed too much.

Well, with your new changes your current changes makes sense. Keep in mind that the import thing is being honest with your taste though!
Remember what percentage you got last time?
By the way, this new formula is slightly more strict (I went from to 77% to 67%), so now it should reflect better scores (because more than half were getting around 60%)

I think it was about... 0,48? Anyway, as for Quadrophenia and Revolver, they're very much albums that mean a lot to me in an emotional sense due to a lot of stuff that happened in my life, not so much a representation of my music taste as a whole.

Makes sense then.
Even then, you should still choose your all time favorites, regardless of the reasons behind it, otherwise the score would be skewed (everybody has to play with the same rules, you know?).

It's more that I'm moving them to "zero spots" beyond the top 10, if that makes any sense.

1. The Books - The Lemon of Pink (393000)
2. Cardiacs - Sing to God (16000)
3. Captain Beefheart - Trout Mask Replica (464000)
4. Tipographica - God Says I Can't Dance (2000)
5. World's End Girlfriend - Seven Idiots (141000)
6. Koenjihyakkei - Angherr Shisspa (15000)
7. Venetian Snares - Songs About My Cats (377000)
8. Henry Cow - In Praise of Learning (54000)
9. Sajjanu - Pechiku!! (2000)
10. Sheena Ringo - Kalk Samen Kuri no Hana (120000)

Score: 67%

Pretty nice.

oh

sorry for retard posting but how do you get the x values?

Do you ACTUALLY have to make this same shitty thread everyday?

I'm pretty sure you did something wrong.

The number of listeners for each artist of your favorite albums.

I'm just trying to get more data to make it more accurate.

all things must be equal has 69 listeners on last.fm

>number of listeners of the ARTISTS of your ten favorite albums
It seems like a lot of people are making the same mistake, oh well...
Also
>no duplicate artists

Daily, Rate Your Music, Last.fm and Tripfags are all cancer

>this thread again

All tripfags fucked off.

>Deathspell Omega - Paracletus
>Dissection - Storm of the Light's Bane
>Batushka - Litourgiya
>Rotting Christ - A Dead Poem

>Funeral Mist - Salvation
>Peste Noire - L'ordure à L'état pur
>Sigh - Hangman's Hymn
>Swans - White light
>Dead can Dance - Spleen and Ideal

obscurity score: 0.61
Raw: 4.85

I guess being a metalfag means you automatically belong

no duplicate artists is a dumb fucking restriction fyi

I'm too lazy to post my top 10, but I'm sure I would get a 0.98 minimum

Liar

Why would I lie about something like that

Too lazy to do this shit myself

>Albums
1. Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven

>Results

oh boi

nevermind I did artists, not albums:
z=0.464
p=5.207
that's better i guess

You are supposed to do artists.

I see.
I should go to sleep now since I can't even read properly

Obscurity Score: 0.48863
Raw: 5.15259

2 artists are >1000000 listeners. Results are skewed.

>2 artists are >1000000 listeners.
>Results are skewed.
Not really. The formula is adjusted in a way having very popular artists doesn't restrict you from getting a high score (unlike the previous last.fm mainstream score which was absolutely retarded).

z = 0.72967619059
p = 4.45363318405
I only put my top 10 of the last 365 days.

is this a thread about music?
this seems like a violation of Rule #1.
i think you should get a ban.
perhaps you dont belong here.

You are supposed to use your all time favorite albums, not necessarily most scrobbled.

Yes, this is a thread about music, more specifically, music and musical taste popularity

yeah i dunno.... seems like a thread jockeying about some algorithm on some other webpage.
i dont see alot of music being discussed....
you probably deserve a ban

...

youre not banned yet?
wow.
i just think that any thread that so clearly violates rule #1 would get deleted.

Yeah, I do.

Post your top 10 :3

I don't really have a set top ten. It changes from day to day.

Recently it's been:
T. Rex - The Slider
Willie Nelson - Shotgun Willie
Mortiferum - Altar of Decay
Guenter Schlienz - Tape Studies
Charlie Parker - The Dial Sessions
Asva - Presences of Absences
Coil - Musick To Play In The Dark
Funkadelic - Maggot Brain
Eleh - Floating Frequencies-Intuitive Synthesis III
John Fahey - Your Past Comes Back to Haunt You

huh, we both got the same score, 67%

do you think youll get the same banz?

>put in most popular favorites last
>score plummets massively
Can't say that's unexpected, and don't know really think I'm a Sup Forumsdrone. Maybe it's because it's based on artists instead of albums? If you wanna be disgusted/curious as to what a .34 looks like, here you go:
>Black Sabbath - Master of Reality
>David Bowie - Scary Monsters
>Judas Priest - Painkiller
>Titus Andronicus - The Monitor
>The Mountain Goats - All Hail West Texas
>Vo Skorbyah - Vo Skorbyah
>Cormorant - Metazoa
>Giant Squid - The Ichthyologist
>Thundercat - Apocalypse
>Yellow Magic Orchestra - S/T

>Spirit They've Gone, Spirit They've Vanished - AnCo
>Ten Thousand Days - Tool
>The Fragile - Nine Inch Nails

>Think Tank - Blur
>Down There - Avey Tare
>The Great Annihilator - Swans
>The Age of Adz - Sufjan Stevens
>No Love Deep Web - Death Grips
>Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys

Huh

Not much of a metalfag but Paracletus is fucking awesome.

i mean if youre going to discriminate instead of following the rules, at least discriminate somewhat nonarbitrarily.

Oh shit I fucked that up, thanks God

Oh fuckin whoops disregard then

enjoy your banx!!

Is there a good reason why this is done with artist listeners rather than album listeners?

Man I sure love all this music discussion going on

no.
thats why this thread should be banned. nothing to do with music.
