One of the things that brought me to this site, is just the sheer amount of weird and niche formats that people made stuff for, so that's why I would love to bring back the Very Rare Format series!
https://battleofthebits.com/arena/Battle/4092/InfoRules

Here are the 16 least used formats at the time of me writing this, sorted by entry count:
boom | 19
baby-k | 21
teletext | 31
smw | 33
ntrq | 35
pure data | 38
vgm | 39
klystrack | 40
lgpt | 46
ym2151 | 51
snibbe | 51
tic80 | 53
moai | 55
ted | 59
html5 | 74
ahx | 77
svg | 77

AHX and SVG are currently tied for 16th, not sure how you would go about breaking the tie...

If you think there are too many mappist/codist formats, there's also the option of swapping them with klangfreude(80) and sapx2(86)

Just so happens that AddmusicK 1.0.9 is currently on standby for moderation over at SMWCentral. Needless to say, I made plenty of repairs to that thing, as well as add a few new features here and there... so for Lunar Magic, a bit of a bugfix for the hacks themselves in the process for those that want to use custom music.

Some formats are a lot older than others and as such would have more entries even if they are hosted less often...
Would be pretty hard to find out how many entries per year of each format there are though.

Now that all the advent formats are revealed, here's a recount:

boom | 19
teletext | 31
baby-k | 32
smw | 33
pure data | 38
vgm | 39
lgpt | 46
ntrq | 47
snibbe | 51
klystrack | 52
ted | 59
tic80 | 69
ym2151 | 70
moai | 72
html5 | 74
klangfreude | 80

Only thing that changed, is that the 16th place tie between ahx and svg got replaced by klangfreude, which kinda surprised me

To me, klangfreude has that unspeakable feeling about it...

Congratulations on your major idea becoming an actual battle! Looks like the list changed again... and a new one showed up.
