Must admit I am beginning to get disheartened with their system of awarding stars. There is no clear guidance as to when each star is awarded, it seems they can award stars at will!

I agree. I'm quite tempted to send them a very polite email asking if they could clarify in their T&C's, even if that clarification is only a rough guide with a "going up a star is at STP's discretion subject to review quality" or something.

My accuracy seems to be a largely moveable feast as well. I plummeted about 7% in a day (largely because I refuse to rate anything glorifying guns, gangs and drugs higher than zero, I think), but then gained back 9% after reviewing two tracks following a break of a few days. Huh?

Oh well. It's never going to make me rich, but it's something to idly pass the time whilst doing other necessary things on t'intarwebs.

Been there, done that twice!!!Apparently I leave constructive reviews, have reviewed a large number of tracks and have a very good accuracy so it shouldn't be long before I get my fourth star!! As far as they are concerned I am doing everything right and should get there soon!!
Am now on 3700 tracks with an accuracy of 90.23% and write 5-6 lines!

I won't bother if that's the case - unless a few more emails of that ilk might get them to whirr the cogs round and realise that it's a bit demoralising and people might disappear (or perhaps that's the idea...?).

Off to build a nice brick wall to bash my head against. Want to borrow?

Lol I'll supply the cement to build it!

I joined slice the pie last month, got bored and ignored it for ages. Now I've decided to really go for it (graduate this month so am looking for a job, have lots of time and not much money). I got my second star at 52 reviews and really want the third one soon. I know the post above says you need about 250 reviews (am on 155 tracks reviewed with 90.27% accuracy), so I was wondering what is the earliest someone has got their third star?

Hi Nichelette, I'm still on 2 stars and on over 600 tracks now but my accuracy is 86.7% but even on 2 stars I think your target of £50 by 18th July is achievable, if you can cope with all the !!!!!! on STP at the moment!!

It kinda sucks about the star rating, we waited till over 200 songs till we got our 2nd star, we have 320 at the mo, and an average of 92.66%, will the 3rd be as alusive as the 2nd?

pompeypirate

ok, where is this accuracy shown on the site? im looking all over for it!!!

3 songs done, average of 4.7 rating so far....

not found anything good yet!

Thanks millie, there is a LOT of rubbish on there, but it's so much easier when you get the good ones. I started off with some good ones today but it has gone downhill quite rapidly. Will keep fingers crossed it doesn't take forever, my accuracy has increased a bit more and my reviews are a reasonable length so here's to hoping...

pompeypirate... to view your accuracy, you need to download the slicethepie application onto your facebook account and view it through there, i dont think there is any other way if you dont have facebook.
