I'm quite bored at the moment, so I've decided to do a league with all the artists that have been in my top 10 weekly charts to date...
Placings are calculated thusly:
1st position = 10pts
2nd position = 9pts
3rd position = 8pts
etc etc so the artist/s in 10th position will get a solitary point!
I haven't thought of anything to make it more interesting yet, so if anybody has any ideas, let me know!
