Re: Song length quota?
Actually I secretly had to laugh about Vax's mathematic posts.

Re: Song length quota?
WHAT! You found my scholarly mathematical dissertation to be humorous?
I glad you understood and enjoyed the intended humor.

Please let us have our right to bullshit After all, it's in the Constitution, wrtten on the back. I've been staying out of the discussion because I would think it impossible to program and enforce song lengths. Bottom line is, the checks and balances here with regard to overrequesting is excellent. Welcome J-B...keep posting. Last edited by Rick and Roll : 10-17-2007 at 07:53 AM. |

It has been working better since I enforced placing user IDs on every request. There are those who still request the same song multiple times. In some cases it is because they missed the track when it played, so I give them the benefit of the doubt. If, however, it is a song that is rather lengthy and I know this song has been played often enough that everybody has neard it at least once in their lifetime, I may opt to dismiss the request -- especially if the queue length is not short.

Re: Song length quota?
Well, sometimes it's a waste of time if you don't do the right things with the amount you've been given. Or so I've heard.

Re: Song length quota?
First of all I would like to apologize to JB and say that I had no intention of offending a new listener. I like the request policy here at the moon and the fact that the music comes first here. So please accept my humble opinion without taking any offense.
Thank you, Spewie |

Re: Song length quota?
That's correct! 11(2) = 3
There are 10 type of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who don't.

Welcome to the moon...the only place where discussions of musical tastes and playlist protocol always, yes always, morph into the Laplace-domain, complex pole positions, and abstract algebra, or worse (okay, dammit, I'll be the first in this thread), King's X, GYBE, and Dream Theater! But seriously, welcome! And enjoy! |

Re: Song length quota?
King's X? Will be heard on my show in a few weeks.
Being new, J-B, you've not been exposed to the tiresome knocking of King's X. It's mentioned by Dinosaur because it seemed for a time that every thread went into a reference to King's X. Kind of amusing actually - most of the time there would be no mention of them, and then someone would say "let's not let this thread morph into a discussion of....... Nice Tull reference Keithie. Adding to the "Sunday lunch confusion" |

Re: Song length quota?
There are two kinds of people: those that can do math and those that can't.
Anyway, I've always thought that the delay between requests could be related to the length of the song. For example: song less than 10:00 = 1 hour delay between requests song between 10:01 and 20:00 = 2 hour delay song 20:01 and over = 3 hour delay Here, there's no "quota." No one's stopping anyone from requesting any length song. Want to request "Tubular Bells, Part One?" Go for it. Just know it'll be three hours till you can request again. NOTE: the one hour delay till it goes in the queue stays the same, just the delay until you can request again changes. If this is a good idea (I vote for it), great. I don't know how much programming that would take. I know nothing about it. Anyway, that's my two cents.
