Russ
Very interesting video.
Thanks for taking the time....
I can see why the guy would need to go to college to run a system like that now if they only had courses like that when I was a School. 
Ark

Golly gee thanks Lena....
It's quite early days yet and after the roller coaster ride of last month where I swung from 2nd to 69th and ended up at 26th with all the places in between phew..
Just have to see how this month plays out.
Thanks again for the encouragement

Hey Phill
Just heard your lastest nice song and recording.
Like the use of the Chorus guitar and the panning.
Well done mate..
Ark

Hi Phill
Had a dog for 15years and having to have the poor old thing put down was one of the hardest jobs that I've had to do..
I watched a program about how pedigree dogs that have been been so inbred that a good majority have major health problems mental and physical. This to satisfy the Kennel club rules of showing the different breds of dogs.
Cruffs pretty surface hides a dark underside of dog maltreatment.. All down to the loving owners mmm.....
Look forward to a recording

Hey Lena
Nice to see your back into the songwriting again..
I suppose there are women like that out there but I've led a very sheltered life 
But I have had my head bitten off a few times though verbally speaking..
Nice one
Ark

Hey Russ
That was a fun song....
The percussion was something else....
Great stuff

Ark

Roger
Nice to hear the song in it's entirety with the intended lyrics.
now I know of the songs dedication for a child so tragically lost I'm even more glad to have been part of it....

Good job with the vocals the chorus effect (for want of a better word) adds more depth nice.

Ark

Hey Kenny
That's some pretty lyrics with some nice sounding chords..
Like to hear the melody you have in mind for it.
Ark

Hey Stretch
Just listened your song.
It's quite a catchy number.
Maybe a tad over long but think you were enjoying yourself and the audience showed their appreciation at the end must have been live recording 
I've sent a friends request to your site...
Ark

Hey Marc
Glad you got your song up on Ourstage good luck....
Here's how work it suposed to work from the horse's mouth so to speak..

How does the ranking engine work?
The ranking or judging is done via two patent pending algorithms that serve up top ranking, middle ranking and relatively new uploaded material in a channel in "somewhat" random fashion for someone to judge.
When we say somewhat, we mean that we take care of serving up the material in a fair and unbiased fashion. We are watching very carefully to make sure that each item in the channel gets equal exposure--we guarantee that. Whether that happens in a particular judging session, though, is another matter.

Depending on how much our users like something (rank it favorably), and how long they want to keep on ranking, the ranking engine will try to get the user to discriminate how much more an item is liked over other ranked items, and thus, the reason why users may see what appears to them as the same item coming up during several battles.

Our site users who judge cannot request what material they will be served to judge. During judging they have to view or play the material served, and at a minimum, they have to screen an item for 15 seconds each before they can rank one item over another.

Then, all of the rankings from all of the users are taken together and the ranking engine bubbles up the best items to the top!

I'm still not sure of the "Fairness" of it all myself
