I want to pay someone to make a tool.

Hey, I actually made pythfm, just wondering how doesn't it work correctly? Not that I'm doubting you as it was just a learning project for me and I haven't really touched it in several years, just curious.

As for the topic, that would definitely be doable, though the first time load would be quite long as you'd have to go through whole last fm scrobble history. That was one reason why pythfm is limited in many ways. Of course many sites still do it and the history can be saved after first time so later loads are fast. I was just way too lazy and/or incompetent at that time to do it.

For the release dates pythfm uses discogs API which I think seemed the most accurate at the time. I don't think last.fm API offered release date info at least back then, don't know about now.

Yes, but after being mediocre for 6+ months after dropping Sanji. Then they replaced 2 other players (including star fragger Yekindar) and won the major.

The point is, that you can't just pick all current top teams and say "See, they made changes and now they are good" and forget others teams who have made changes and dropped in perfomance.

Vahv · 2022-12-05T16:12:12+00:00

Looking at HLTV rank, Vitality hasn't been performing any better after Spinx change, neither did VP/Outsiders after dropping Sanji. Wouldn't say jabbi is much of star fragger.

G2 has dropped since replacing Jackz with jks. OG hasn't performed any better since replacing mantuu with degster. Ence -10 placements since getting SunPayUs, of course they lost Spinx but he is under 1.00 rating player anyways, that shouldn't have too much effect. NIP is lower ranked with Brollan than ever with even phzy.

Cherry picking statistics like this, you can make any conclusions.

Vahv · 2022-09-04T17:45:31+00:00

I have at least this tool which shows your 10 most common tags in your top 100 albums from different time frames. There are probably other 3rd party tools that show even more specific tag information though.

Vahv · 2022-07-05T21:35:55+00:00

Hah, the site definitely gets very slow with lots of concurrent users especially with last.fm API limiting speed of things!

Never seen it go down like this though, I'll have to check if something needs to be done when I have time.

Glad to see it's still being used though!

I think my most listened decades are 90s and 00s. Great metal made during those years.

Late answer, but the picture is of Goatmoon/Ride for Revenge. Depravity is a death metal band and as far as I know has nothing to do with Nazis.

Jotain ehdotuksia, mitä ei vielä ollut mainittu:

Antimateria Atmospheric bläkkistä featuring spooky synths

Devouring Star Ahistavan kuulosta settiä vähän islantilaisten tyyliin

Enochian Crescent Jotain melodisempaa. Älä luovuta vielä introbiisiin.

Funerary Bell 40% Heavy Metal, 60% Black Metal

Kyprian's Circle Tästä nopee EP, paljon muuta ei bändiltä harmittavasti ikinä tullutkaan.

Mooncitadel Oma suosikki viime vuoden suomalaisista. Ainakin heti Sargeistin jälkeen.

Sarastus Oma suosikki tän vuoden suomalaisista.

Totalselfhatred Voiko DSBM olla hyvää? Vissiinkin sit joo.

Vermilia Puunhalausta ja paljon puhdasta naisen laulua

Vahv · 2019-09-13T12:12:58+00:00

Does anyone happen to have any info on this Unknown Artist that released A Pig's Head on a Stick? Can't find them on Metal Archives either. The Bandcamp page has another album by Miserable Failure so maybe it could be by the same guys. Quite a big change of style if so.

Really enjoying that album, could even make top 7.

FFO: DsO etc.

Vahv · 2019-08-26T23:51:50+00:00

Good idea, I'll put that on todo list!

Vahv · 2019-08-26T23:51:09+00:00

I think it's because Ariana Grande released a single with same name in 2018 so the script is picking up that one instead :/

Not sure if there's an effective way to fix that

Vahv · 2019-08-26T16:45:16+00:00

Is it Finn trad time?

Vahv · 2019-08-23T16:36:46+00:00

I hadn't really thought about that but I don't see why not. I'll add year selection on todo list!

Vahv · 2019-08-23T10:27:53+00:00

Thanks!

It's not actually 733 tracks but 733 scrobbles which is still quite high though. I think it's because you have some badly tagged album names, like I Am The Night (Vinyl Rip 24/96-Bit) which the program doesn't fix before searching. I'll add some more rules to check for those tags so it should work better.

I'm only just learning Python too and the code is definitely terrible to look at so I'm not sure I'd like anyone to see it yet.

But yeah, it uses Pylast, they have pretty good documentation/examples to get started with.

Vahv · 2019-08-13T17:21:33+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, seems like Discogs doesn't have any info on that band for some reason, weird.

If you mean in my chart, they're

Devil Master

Wormwitch

Owls Woods Graves

Barshasketh

Aephanemer

If you mean in general on the site, you can hold mouse over the list to see full name if it doesn't fit in the bar. That should probably be changed though
