Play songs randomly by weighted popularity

[abyll]

With the rating system, choose songs randomly by their weighted rating.

Players will have a weight (0.0-1.0) (0.0 for example being an ignored alt) that affects their rating
Choose a song based on players currently online, randomly.

Katamari Damacy will play all the time. Great.

Why not weight according to "pretty popular" but not too popular? Try to mix it up with lesser known songs and categorize ones less rated as more important. I don't want to log onto TPP and Katamari Damacy is always playing because its rated 4.99/5.

(This was a suggestion that came from Streamer)
It would still picking songs by random, just unpopular songs are chosen less often. This still respects the cooldown time on songs, of course.
Players might vote down songs they get tired of, too.

However, there could be another weighting system based on frequency played (would need to add a way to calculate), or time last played (already there), that goes into the weighting as well, to promote more song rotation.

You're underestimating the capacity of TPP to do the same thing over and over.
