Site news and announcements
| June 2025 site update |
|---|
| From albummaster on Tuesday 17 June 2025 |
| A new site update has just been pushed live. Quite a few layout changes have been made across the site (including on the forums and data admin pages). This is the start of a project to refresh the site in time for its 20th anniversary, so quite a few further changes can be expected over the next few months to many areas of the site.
Separately, from July 1st 2025, recognised charts will be worth three points per entry (instead of five). Since introducing an extra points bounty for these charts, BEA now has ~3,000 recognised charts which help to add weight to the aggregate charts & attract visitors for people seeking these types of chart out, but it's now time to balance out the reward more evenly versus other aspects of the site. Previous recognised charts that have been added will retain their five points per entry (including those charts not yet promoted), but charts created after this date will be awarded three points per entry (equating to 300 points for a 100 entry chart). Enjoy the site & more soon. AM |
