    I wouldn't worry too much, just keep on doing what you're doing! And the accuracy thing is a bit of a misnomer. It's how accurate you are to the reviews that other scouts have given the track, so it's not exactly great for the artist, as common belief is stick to giving tracks rating between four and eight, as that's what everyone else will do. The artists of course thinks that sucks if people aren't giving them incredibly high scores that might be deserved because they want to keep their accuracy up to get stars. So I keep screwing my accuracy right up, because I can't help rewarding tracks with 9s or 10s if I really, really like them, cause that is the spirit of the site at the end of the day isn't it? I couldn't justify trying to follow the heard just to get the money, don't think it's fair on people who have slogged their guts out making top tunes!

    Ahh, I understand now, and you're right! I've scored a few songs 2 and been told others have done the same, but I'll score that I feel is right for that song, not waht's right for my stats.

    thanks again x

    • my current Scout Rating is 01AwcAX0BzsiwAAAACAAAAAAAAAAA:.gif (2)
    • my current Scout Position is 212
    • my Scouting Accuracy is 88.62 %
    • I have reviewed 31 tracks
    I've reviewed and scored honestly, not the 4-6 thing.....usually review with 3-4 lines min :) Also wonder if listening to the whole song makes a difference...?

  • Don't think so, I don't always listen to the entire thing, especially if it's some death metal track that I had to spend a minute listening to to find something nice to write about it! Never seems to make a difference either way?

    ...but how do you know? Maybe you would 'level' up quicker if you did? Seems that people just trying to make money would listen to the 60 secs then review asap to get on.......
