|
I thought about that it could be nice if the "no repeats"-time could be put back to 10 days until after x-mas. In this way, the x-mas-tracks would be available sooner. Just an idea. |

I agree, only I really, really wish you wouldn't write "X-mas." That abbreviation has always struck me as a little tacky. _________________ My latest obsession: My new baby, Zoltan. |

I wish the No-Repeat times would go back 4/10 days generally....  _________________ "Welcome to the paranoia club; cheapest fees in the universe and membership lasts forever."

I think it would be ok until Christmas. (I'd prefer if it could be limited to Christmas music though... but I guess that would become a bit too complicated.)
I like the current 5/15 days No Repeat time. It makes the stream a lot more varied and lesser played track are also requested. |

Sure, lady, i'll do my best.
I'm fine with the no-repeats-time, but just thought that it would be sad if the christmas-tracks that for example get played today couldn't be played again before last christmas-day. So it would be a nice little gift for the christmas-music-likers  |

Nice idea, Victor!
I really would appreciate that - so I could listen to some of the christmas tune before Christmas ...  _________________ It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.

Good thinking, Victor.
As GalFin said, it would be really nice if this just applied to the Christmas tracks particularly as we have such a small selection of Christmas tracks here. Or perhaps just the admin's could start selecting these whenever they are around as I believe they can override the request wait ... at least for Christmas Eve through Boxing Day. _________________ If you can't stand the heat, don't tease a dragon |

Want to see if anyone reads this cuz I didn't want to make a new thread.
First time in the forums for a while. Usually if it's a big update, I don't get to hear everything because of early morning or late night requests. That's fine, not complaining about that. What if we split the time to request tracks again to 10 for the previous update? This month - 5 days, last month - 10 days, all others - 15 days. |

Isn't it like that already? I mean : 5 days for the new scores and 15 for all others. _________________ There is no problem that can't be solve without any solution |

The idea is to add a new (third) group of scores: scores from penultimate update with 10 days no repeat rule. _________________ "The piano keys
