New shiny slice the pie thread

Courage

Hey, this is my first post, so be gentle!

I have signed up to SliceThePie, and I've just reached 2 stars after one night. I was just wondering how I can redeem the £5.00v I have earned? Any idea what the voucher is for? I couldn't find any information on their website about it. (My initial guess is that the voucher is for investing in bands, rather than a voucher from Amazon, for example?)

Any help would be great. I'm totally loving this site by the way! I'm just annoyed I didn't join MSE sooner!

Need to look a bit harder

All Users on Slicethepie have a Voucher Account. This account is used to collect money from early Scouting, for Voucher credits and for any other rewards you earn on the site. A Voucher Account can only be used to invest in Artists in a Slicethepie Showcase. Unlike cash, once you have used credit to invest in an Artist you cannot move that credit Investment to another Artist and it will only be returned to your Voucher Account if your chosen Artist fails to reach their financing target.

Ahh, right. Cheers for that. To be fair, it was 3:00am in the morning when I checked!

Oh, just one more thing, are they reliable/trustworthy? I don't want to spend hours doing this and not seeing a penny at the end of it. I mean it seems like people have been paid before, but I just want to check

That is actually probably their biggest flaw - they are too reliable and trustworthy. They always pay out, every time, without fail.

That leads a lot of people to the site who simply use it to make money and completely skip over the actual point of the site itself.

Is anyone still having problems? It was all going really well for me over the last few days and this morning, but have logged on this afternoon and it is doing exactly what the old version used to do - plays a few seconds of a track then you get about 20 seconds pause, then a few more seconds - you get the picture. It's making it impossible to give a proper opinion of a track, plus it is taking ages!

Is anyone else having this or is it just me? I've dowloaded an updated version of Java incase that had anything to do with it but it hasn't made any difference.

It's working fine for me Sweetpea32. Can't think what to suggest, sorry. Clear your cookies and start again? What browser are you using?

evening all, happy new year.

'Tipping failed' - why do I get that sometimes? I thought it was when you got an artist tht was already showcased, but it just happened to me with someone who isn't.
