Default Billboard Decade End & All Time List

So if you don't know, Billboard uses a system based on chart position for their decade end lists and the Greatest of All Time List. What this means is that a song at #1 gets the most amount of points, #2 gets less points, #3 gets less points than #2, and so on. #100 gets the least. We're nearing the end of the 2010s decade (which actually ends in November), and I'll post the list weekly, along with updates within the top 100 and any updates to the All-Time top 250.

The top 100 is as followed. New/updated songs since the 2018 update are in bold.

^ i guess it means if it was popular, it gets more points. Basically not scoring on if the song is actually good or not.

When I get back on my computer, I'll post the point system and the multipliers used. The default amount for a #1 is 65,000 (1.0 multiplier, used between 1991 and 2012) and right now a #1 gets 52,000 points.
