WWS Track Rating Reminder

This is a reminder to those noobies who may not have heard or older members who have forgotten.

You may NOT rate a track if you have posted a track in the same ratings week. I have deleted rates multiple times for people disobeying this rule.

Yes, it's a double post, but I really want people to get this message. I have deleted multiple rates today.

Every weekly competition starts at 12:00am on Sunday and ends at 11:59 the following Saturday. If you post a track any time in that window, you may not rate a track during that week.

We have this rule so that people may not attempt to manipulate the weekly competition in their favor.

Also if your rates are terrible, don't rate!

And for the people that say, WOW great ride. It was awsome. 10,10,10. Its otherwise your rating sucks, or you need to at least tell why the ride was good. You cant just rate everything high because it looks cool, or they are your friend. It has to be good all around, techs really count.

i have a suggestion maybe. Make three input fields, one for tech, one for orig and one for adren. And an 4th box for comments. The first three make have at least 50 chars and the 4th is optional.

This isn't really a suggestion topic, more of a reminder. There were a lot of issues with invalid and poor rates today and the site was really in need of a clear explanation of what will and will not be accepted.

That really would end up haveing so many people turned away from rateing. If they werent turned away from it then we would also have 100 charecters of extra crap if they are just filling in the space.

quality goes over quantity IMO. I'd rather have one decent rate, than five who are onliners

I get many complaints in pm of why hasn't anyone rated my coaster and stuff, adding more requirements just pisses people off from rating and I get more complaints, which is annoying getting them daily. Force peolpe to rate like 10%? Piff, I can't be arsed to do so.

More rating problems today and yesterday. Please read the first post.

1,000 points to anyone who finds a way to not post a track in that time window

you have abuot one minute...

"1,000 points to anyone who finds a way to not post a track in that time window"

Ok GerstlCrazy, you're on. Next week, I won't post a track in that time window. I'd like my 1000 points in cash please.

me too, does back pay count? if he doesn't pay he has set himself for a mass robbery [:)]

Haha. I'll do it too!

Technically it's not possible. Your track has to be up sometime in the week. If that minute is defined towards eligibility in a track then not every track posted will be legal.

Jake's track may have been put up in that minute, did he wait for the precise change of week. I'm sure many of the desingers that designed very high quality coasters were concerned about putting their track's rating time to high potential and posted in that minute, and won the weekly. But so did they really win the weekly?

DCs will recieve 1,000 site points if he can give me concrete proof without staff aid that he posted a track between 11:59 PM on a Saturday and 12:00 AM the following Sunday. Don't expect me to be watching the time and exchange, so find a way to get a picture.

WWS, I will click 11 ads a day all the following week if you can do the same.

Vid...Sorry, you're too late.

Woodie Man. Sorry about the transformation of the topic

Awwwww...

I am quoting this so you don't decide to change your post later on when you figure out what you actually wrote.

I think my second post should be the used. I don't want to feel cornered.
