94 thousand albums lmao. the process of just rating all of those alone would probably take weeks. the process of listening to all of them... well, i'm not going to bother doing the math, but it's a large enough number that that guy is obviously full of shit

you can't rate 94,000 albums and then also find the time to play something to death for a couple of weeks solid every time something really tickles you you'd think? - which is the best part of music?
maybe they do - the mind boggles

I'm working for 20k and then I'll delete all my ratings and start over again

I think the majority of the users are legitimate. Most of them have very simple rating systems. The curves are more polar looking (simple like / dislike). It's also likely that some users drop albums if they dislike it.
At least for those less than 30k

Those guys on RYM that 2.0 everything without remorse really grind my beans, that's the real enemy

Positive rating systems? I think it's ok on RYM because the moderators lower their impact on album rating averages. It is probably ideal if you want to listen to a lot of stuff and aren't pissy about how you rank things. Not for me basically.

yeah, you'd have to constantly move from one album to the next and never repeat a single song. and if you did that (fuck it i did the math anyway), and assuming every album is a meager 30 minutes, that would be roundabouts 5.3 years of nonstop music. if you assumed they were an hour long each, then it's over a decade of nonstop music consumption. it's physically impossible to do. there's 24 hours in a day, and this is assuming that ever single one of those hours is spent listening to music, which can't be done. assuming you listened to 16 hours of music a day and only slept for 8 hours every single day for the duration of these 94 thousand albums, the number climbs even higher. to somewhere around 7.1 years with the assumption that each album is half an hour. in short: total bullshit. 16.5 thousand albums doesn't come close to approaching these high as fuck numbers, and i'll be honest, it's certainly do-able, but again it seems really unlikely (especially if you're under 25)

rym has been around for 19 years. You could be generous and assume their first 1000's of ratings were just their favourites from memory..

You've never had a boring desk job I'm guessing, time moves slower in the void

hah

dude, you're talking about 7.1 years of nonstop music, assuming all albums are just 30 minutes long (which obviously wouldn't be the case, i'm sure some would be a bit shorter, and many would double, triple, maybe even quadruple the length). i'm telling you, it's impossible.

7/19 almost a third of the day assuming they began day 1. Again it is possible. Most are not married (:
You can also assume a lot of the albums were dropped 20mins in

20 years of music listening, all a lie. Gotta tell past me to quit while he's ahead
|
| |
even if every single one of those albums was dropped 20 mins in, you're still looking at several years of nonstop music play. this is assuming this guy does literally nothing else but listen to music. no bathroom breaks, no showers, no social life, no job unless it permits nonstop music, no movies or games etc.

Are you talking about 94,000? He is 59 year old, one of the biggest collectors on rym, and has been a member since 2006

yes. you brought up rym, which is the source i was referring to with the 94 thousand albums. obviously i conceded already that 16.5 is attainable, but still highly suspect

"I had a conversation with SP59 once about his ratings (his answers are in my chatbox, mine, of course, he erased).
According to him he uses 'the UHS system'. When I asked him wth was that he said: 'it's very sophisticated pc soft (program) which allows you to listen multiple albums in the same time'.
Whatever he mean by that I say this is cheating RYM rating system, which I don't mind at all. But when people claim he's some kind of music king it makes me mad about it.
Just saying."
well that settles things
