tbh the system doesnt work. people just request their fav tracks over and over. so a new album may not get requested by the main crew cause their not familiar with the movie , game or anime / show.
it would be better to introduce less requests and have admin shuffle the tracks evenly to introduce least played tracks get the attention it deserves. also it be worth considering that a track can be requested and not be voted for as its possible a user may not use that feature.
it be better to get rid of non appropriate albums that not necessarily suck, but dont really belong on sst as its not really a score.
an album that gets requested should negate any voting system, as obviously someone is liking that album. |

Absolutely not. It just don't get his stars. And that's 10 votes needed, not 5. There's nothing in the site that urge the scores to be rated. We're just a bunch of people who think that it's better, or nicer, or cooler to have all scores rated.
And we're also quite a lot to put the more diversity in the queue that we can. I'm not sure that putting some admins random request from here to there will make the queue better. After all, the queue means what people want to hear. And just for the information, when the NUTs and RATs started, there were hundreds of score unrated.

If you read the first posts of this thread the whole idea of the NUT/RAT list was because there was once a lot of unplayed tracks on SST. Of course with several reasons, like track is not good or nobody knows them but eventually people find out they are good.
And to find those albums with unplayed tracks I created this page where members can add and remove those albums.
And there are main crew members who uses this list to find new unplayed tracks easily.
Later the RATs were added with the main reason that every album here on SST have at least 10 votes to shine the stars.
I think maybe what you are suggesting here is more a new idea of how to handle "unwanted" albums here and should be in the "Idea" Forum.
If you want I can split your comments into a new thread in the Ideas Forum

Sirius, I have a suggestion for your RAT/NUT page... or more specifically, pertaining to the NUT half!
After an update the list of new albums gets added to the NUT list; people start requesting from these titles and gradually whittle down the number of unplayed tracks until they're all gone... at which point the person who requested the last remaining unplayed track is asked to remove it from the list. However, more than once over the last couple of updates, somebody has removed a title from the NUT list *before* the album was actually "cleared" – and I think I know why. The albums I've seen this happen with have had extremely long track lists... long enough to trigger the "Show/Hide" bar that displays on the album's page. When titles have been erroneously removed from the NUT list, i.e. when there are still unplayed tracks remaining, it seems to be that the person only looked at the tracks ABOVE the cut, which may in fact have all played, but did not consider to also look BELOW the cut, at the remainder of the track listing, where there might yet be dozens of unplayed tracks. Maybe it's happening because they are new & don't realize about the additional tracks, or perhaps it's a regular who was just going too fast and only glanced down the list. Who knows?
When I've caught this it's usually because I was requesting from the NUT list, signing off with say maybe 20 tracks still left on a certain album, then coming back 6 hours later to find that same album marked off... and knowing that that's not reasonable to see, given the 1-hour minimum wait between same-album requests. Of course when I go to check I find, as I say, more unplayed tracks below the cut. So I add the album back to the list where it may be properly cleared, but I only do that with the ones I catch. Maybe there are more like this that nobody is catching, and so there are unplayed tracks that slip through unnoticed.
Perhaps on the RAT/NUT page, you might add a simple text reminder to people to check the complete page, not just the top default display, whenever there is a "Track list limited" notice on an album. That may not stop every instance but at least it might make people pause to double-check themselves before deleting something from the list that isn't actually finished yet. |
