Hi all, just had a shock reading the forums. Do I get charged each time I transfer my hard earned cash to Paypal. I have a normal Paypal account. At the mo I am transferring after each £5 or £10 but will wait if it means less charges.

It would seem that you get charged when withdrawing money from paypal into your bank account, but not for stp transferring money into your paypal account.

Just finished 55 tracks for tonight and have had to stop before I die from tedium. Seems like I got all the good tracks on the first day. My brain has just turned to mush and I can no longer think of sufficient different ways to say the music is crap or that the guy with a guitar sounds like a busker with 5p in an otherwise empty guitar case - I mean, theres only so many ways to say something is desperately average, mediocre or plain awful. The number of scouts ahead of me on each track seems quite high so I might not have much longer to get Fridges of Uganda. Thats a shame with half term on the way, I'd hoped to break my personal record. Not thrilled at the reductions in payments though, it feels like I've been busted back down to 2 star when I have not. Unless scouts start spending their scouting money on contracts I can see this going lower still as its hard to see their business plan otherwise. I'm fairly sure they underestimated the amount of withdrawls last scout room and had a cashflow problem. If the bands were good enough it might actually be a good way to increase earnings to buy the discount contracts on a band you felt sure would do well even briefly. I might put a bit of time into considering that option over Half term, I admit I dont properly understand it just yet.

What is wrong with tonight??? I have reviewed about 15 songs (lol) I keep getting bored and getting distracted online and then it ending and me thinking 'oh i was meant to review that' and having to start over! Way too much hiphop and dance that all sounds the same, im getting bored of my own repetetiveness, have to agree with amazing duck, nova girl and the others, canne handle anymore! lol.

how many times can one girl say monotomous, uninspring, ok, lacking originality, samey, bland. My ratings have ranged from 3-5 with one 6 cuz i was getting desperate, I dont think they actually deserved it but it was a female acoustic solo and was a weird un-eventful breath of fresh air admist everything else!

I've also kind of misplaced my motivation ever since I reached 3 stars,with 4 stars seeming an impossible feat...

Completely agree, Feet! Seems like everyones having a lacklustre time on the Pie this weekend. I guess there is a very limited number of good bands and artists out there. I decided just to listen to proper bands this evening and am much happier for it

I've been doing that tonight too! I've not had one decent song tonight Before they cut the money, the money made the bad ones less painful to listen too, there seemed more reasons for making your ears bleed!

Oo Arcade Fire, nicey nice!

I'm on Death Cab for Cutie. Yum.

lol, maybe they should set it up differently...have a skip button, a 'I know I can review this if I want to find out the artist, but in all honesty I don't want to know, give me another song please!' button That way we'd sift out all the $%^&& ones real quick and it would be obvious who the good ones are.

Mind you, we'd earn even less that way....

Nope scrap that idea,it'd not work. Shame though!

*big satisfied sigh* 'neighbourhood' (tunnels) just finished. I feel like I've been sleeping with gareth gates for the past two hours, have finally seen the light and landed in bed with dave grohl.
