˚⋆｡°✩Maxon Westley Definitive Chart of the Year 2024 ✩°｡⋆˚

I feel like I have been non-stop creating charts over the past week, but here we are the final special edition of the end of year season then back to regular weekly Effervescence.

So, when it comes to deciding end of the year favorites, I have three sources, firstly on December 4th of 2024, Spotify Wrapped provided me with their Top 100 tracks I had listened to since January 1st. On December 31st, I posted my Effervescence Top 100 which is ranked by the points songs have scored here on Crown Note over the course of the year, and finally on January 1st, 2025, I pulled my stats for the entire year from Stats.FM. Technically you would think it to pretty much match my Spotify Wrapped but not only does it include the missing months not included in the Wrapped playlist, the criteria is different as I believe that they only count the tracks specifically selected, not just played from a playlist or played next from an algorithm. I think all three charts have their merit and provide value to me for what I have been enjoying the most over any given timeframe.

This final, and definitive chart of 2024 is an average of all three of the aforementioned charts of the year. So I have compiled all three charts and awarded points for each of the final positions. The points are allocated from 150 points for #1 down to 1 point for #100 with the allocation of points weighted to better reward the top 20 or so positions. The exact points are as follows:

#1 = 150 points, #2 = 140 points, #3 = 135 points, #4 = 128 points, #5 = 120 points, #6 = 116 points, #7 = 112 points, #8 = 108 points, #9 = 104 points, #10 = 100 points, #11 = 98 points, #12 = 96 points, #13 = 94 points, #14 = 92 points, #15 = 90 points, #16 = 88 points, #17 = 86 points, #18 = 84 points, #19 = 82 points, #20 = 81 points with the remaining positions being one less per position all the way down to #100 = 1 point

Here are the criteria for compiling the tracks. If the number after point 1 is the same, point 2 will be used to differentiate, and so on.

1. Number of total points
2. The track that appeared in the most charts (of the three)
3. The track with the highest average position
4. The track with the highest position in any of the charts
5. On the rare occasion we get past the above differentiators and still cannot separate, I will simply select my personal choice between the two
