JDWasabi	Date: July 15, 2008 @ 2:36 PM Hey I'm new too! First of all this is all a lil scary since I have no idea how the system works here, but I will get use to it eventually Had a quick browse through the forums and it seems like everyone's cool! I hope that participating here will help me feel more confident as a musician and in my songs. ^_^ I like all types of music (obviously some more than others), art/drawing, green tea and DDR! :3

JDWasabi	Date: July 16, 2008 @ 2:21 AM Lol oh dear, I see that my newbie forum is getting chaotic already! How does the top 20 listens daily work? I tried looking under the faq but I could have been blind and not see it there xD. Hey I one of my tunes is there! Is that a good thing?
Mojosnake	Date: July 16, 2008 @ 2:37 AM yes JD thats a good thing...i think...well i was dancing anyway...
Distilled1	Date: July 16, 2008 @ 4:06 AM the charts have just been re done (top 20 listens) and charts in all the genres and subs as well. (they had been broken for quite some time!) I can tell you for sure that self streaming does not count, and that its based off of stream count and I am 99% sure it is on unique streams, and possibly other meta data. I don't know if downloads count in that as well? maybe if we can get the coders to drop a quick note we will know, but I don't want them off working on fixing other borked items
JDWasabi	Date: July 17, 2008 @ 7:35 AM Aaah so when you say 'count' it refers to the point system? Is the point system something like...experience points...like in games? X)!!
evansorchid	Date: July 17, 2008 @ 12:43 PM Mmmm.....wasabi! Goes great with sushi.
Israfel	Date: July 17, 2008 @ 2:44 PM The point system has no earthly meaning. I like to believe that they mean something in the afterlife though. You know, get enough points, get out of purgatory. That sort of thing! Of course, evansorchid is going straight to hell...
TameasDust	Date: July 22, 2008 @ 1:08 PM I was new once ... about five years ago ... then I raided Moam's hen house and was dragged off to Admindom, got a gold bolt shoved up my %$$#%^ and here I sit... as usual
