3. Daft Punk 27
5. Vitalic 25
6. Coldplay 23

Coldplay are top of the tracks list. What the fuck happened?

Coldplay probably tops it because of the thread devoted to the song "talk." It's probably mostly people just curious to see how Coldplay used "Computer World." I bet they'll disappear from next week's charts.

This must be the worst group. Just look at the group rules!!

According to the home page(which is down now as well) AS will be offline for the weekend while they upgrade. Although recent tracks played have updated most peoples top artists etc havent updated in weeks(some have whos profile is small)
Queue submissions have been 3 days behind also.

So lets hope the downtime this weekend sorts it all out.

OK, we spent 8 hours at the datacenter today, we completely disassembled the rack and rebuilt it, which was quite fun. Lucifer is now finally back up to 8GB of RAM again (after the manufacturer managed to send us the wrong type of RAM twice), and the current profiles database now has two more disks which might speed things up a bit.
We did install another new profiles machine, however we almost immediately discovered that it had a faulty RAM stick in it (doesn't that sound familiar...). We have hopefully removed the correct pair of modules, and it's currently undergoing burn-in tests. If this is successful, we will be able to migrate some of the profiles off to it to improve speed. This will happen within a week or two.

Edit: we haven't the faintest idea what this will do to performance - it'll make it faster, but how much faster is yet to be seen. The big performance jump happens when we start using the new profiles database, but this will be in a week or two's time, when we've determined it's stable enough to put data on.

So I assume top artists still wont update but recent tracks will as normal.
Anyone know what happened to the recommendations page?

I signed up yesterday, and have left iTunes shuffling randomly for two days to populate it. It felt bloody weird tonight, being able to check - from work - what music was currently playing in my flat.

i felt this was 'cheating' so my list of tracks is quite low numbers wise as it's 100% 'honest' (not to say i don't listen to stuff via random play but then skip if it's one i don't wanna listen to of course).

http://www.audioscrobbler.com/ has an update on the new features. Inc new charts and stuff. Which NIN seem to be dominating.
So it at least explains why it's been down so often.

New stuff / Sit-rep
Nine Inch Nails storm the Audioscrobbler charts! Looks like their new album is popular :)

We've been tuning the submission system this weekend. It's alive again now, and will start catching up. New accounts will be available once it's caught up.

Slight update to artist pages; now you can see the subtle difference between songs that get played the most, and songs that get played by the most people.

Artist-relation data has been updated again, see the explore music menu point, or the big fat search box on the homepage.

Moderations - the mod system has been removed as we are replacing it with a super-duper new MusicBrainz oriented mod system that will kick some serious ass.

Also being worked on at the moment:
- "Tagging" (flickr/delicious-esque)
- Native software player for Last.fm radio
- Proper album stats for Audioscrobbler
- Musicbrainz goodness, so we can use advanced relationship data etc. (click here for an example)
- More hardware, faster everything, cure for cancer.

It's because Abby McDonald started a thread about it. She posted it as a mystery mp3 on her blog and asked everyone to guess who it was.

I was wondering if the results of the 70s tracks poll will make any difference. I know I've been downloading (and listening to) a lot of them.

I think you can manually turn the plugin on and off at will so that it only logs your music.

Isn't there some way that we can communally rig our playlists so that the main audioscrobbler page doesn't show the entire top ten as Coldplay songs? I just want to save the impressionable iTunes children of the world...

Chalk it up to the links to the entire album in downloadable format that popped up a week ago.
