09.18.15 | i've seen people on rym with 20-30k (prob some are singles tho) |
Jots
09.18.15 | @dusty - 3 albums a day for 10 years. average album is like 30-40mins, so it's not impossible. |
Valkyrion
09.18.15 | it's really easy, you just need time and dedication |
Cygnatti
09.18.15 | One of the dudes on here got about 4.5k but he's the real deal
Been goin' to concerts and shit since the 60s and such. |

09.18.15 | Amount of ratings says nothing imo. Some people rate albums after one listen or eben just on basis of singles...I however sometimes have to relisten the whole thing several times to be sure enough about the rating. |

Cygnatti
09.18.15 | lolifant, do you feel special? |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | jasdevi I know that no one else does but I myself do...I want to be the ratings as honest and accurate as possible (representing my opinion of course). This also helps a lot sorting out which music you put on your phone when there's not enoug space for everything.
Cygnatti At least I don't feel less special than the 10k ratings dude because it's very probable he rates the stuff without taking the time to really appreciate an album or anything. |
MrSirLordGentleman
09.18.15 | 10k of ratings and so many classic albums missing, smh |
bakkermaarten007
09.18.15 | If someone has that many ratings, no special bonds with albums have been formed. I've listened to one album for 4 months in a row once. I can't see these guys do that. |
Cygnatti
09.18.15 | "no special bond"
stop |
Dunpeal
09.18.15 | life-changing résumé bullet, for sure |
TheSonomaDude
09.18.15 | Flyheadmetal has like 3700 of all metal |
Anthracks
09.18.15 | Some people can listen to an album once or twice and get all they need from it. Others need more time with it. Just depends. |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | there are dudes on rym with 50k+ ratings, but some of them are old timers. not qutie zak level ancient but still |
bloc
09.18.15 | I used to have a lot, I swear! |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | hep kat well you gotta at least have some inherently (!) reasonable scale within your ratings other than just having as many ratings as possible with more or less random scores, so don't try defending that you rate without giving an album enough time. nobody permits it you can do whatever you want but don't try to defend it by insulting us because we take the time to appreciate and take in an album dude |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | and you need to get off ur damn high horse because you put too much importance on ratings |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | when I'm on a high horse then the guy throwing words like 'retarded teenagers' around has to sit on an elephant or something I guess
btw ratings are more important than one might like to admit. but this whole site is more or less based on it and people are argueing over scores rather than lines within reviews |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | this site is based on reviews, not ratings. that would be rateyourmusic |
SmileNerd
09.18.15 | This list created a lot more interesting debate than I thought it would. |
theBoneyKing
09.18.15 | "I've listened to one album for 4 months in a row once."
the fuck |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | clearly he's better than you |
theBoneyKing
09.18.15 | clearly |
hal1ax
09.18.15 | must be due to special neural pathways |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | still people give more attention to the scores in the comment section than the actual content of the review...but whatever, my ratings are right and all of yours are wrong anyway wuhahahaha |
treeqt.
09.18.15 | if you can't form an opinion after 1 spin you probably have listened to like 30 albums in your life, 5ed brand new albums and should quit music altogether |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | so after it was trendy to like Brand New for a long time on this site, now that enough people gathered who like them it became trendy playing reverse-elitist and hating them. sputnik = best site on the web excluding porn |
treeqt.
09.18.15 | it's actually called growing up |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | or it could be that some people just don't like them idk. might seem unfathomable but consider the possibility |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | right, that's why I have their debut at a 2.5 and their 3rd album a 5 - they grew up, so did I
@ Keyblade
there's a difference between not liking a band and telling everyone who likes a band that their musical taste can't be taken serious anymore due to this fact, just because one does know they have a lot of fans on this site and striving against the ones who started striving against something in the first place makes you look like superduperspecialhipster |
theBoneyKing
09.18.15 | B u t t h u r t |
treeqt.
09.18.15 | you understand the concept now you just have to wait for your 15th birthday |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | Will this be also the day when I start to see a carly rae jepsen album as a classic? |
theBoneyKing
09.18.15 | Maybe it'll be the day you actually listen to it instead of shitting on albums you haven't heard |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | yeah, maybe, gotta wait to hit puberty and we'll see |
Cygnatti
09.18.15 | i'm pretty sure it is technologically impossible to 5 both brand new and carly
so when he does 5 carly, brand new needs to go down the gutter yea |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | yeah you can't have boy problems and no friends problems at the same time |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | just seeing the tracklist of her new album makes me want to never ever listen to this record |
Jasdevi087
09.18.15 | is there actually a person on the other side of the bakkermaarten account? |
Jots
09.18.15 | is a lolifant just the nascent form of a loli? |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | that's my secret
|
zaruyache
09.18.15 | new Carly was a 3/5 and nothing more. You're only missing out on like four notable songs and they're all at the front of the record sooooooooooo |
treeqt.
09.18.15 | >four notable songs
>3/5
I

Cygnatti
09.18.15 | good question jas man |
Cygnatti
09.18.15 | zar dude you baaaaaad |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | 1/4 of the album notable = 3/5? dude |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | well, doesn't mean the rest is bad. maybe the notable songs are awesome and the rest is generic but not totally shit |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | rekt? wrong site, call of duty stream is on twitch |

ShadowRemains
09.18.15 | bakker that was a really fucking dumb comment like come on |
Jasdevi087
09.18.15 | itt bakkermaarten admits to listening to a pop punk album for 4 months without looking for something different in between, talks shit about guy who has listened to 10,000 albums over a 4 year period because he hasn't formed an intimate sexual relationship with his 3 5's |
hal1ax
09.18.15 | haha^ |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | you're not a real music fan until you made love to an album and stayed the night |
Cygnatti
09.18.15 | some of us aren't really the committed type tho |
hal1ax
09.18.15 | ya i mean what if I'm not emotionally ready to fuck a blink 182 album for four months straight? its a lot of pressure |
TwigTW
09.18.15 | no special bonds with albums have been formed |
Jasdevi087
09.18.15 | Hep Kat how many special bonds do you have? |
DrMaximus
09.18.15 | ratings are srrious bzzzzzinusss |
evilford

09.18.15 | "i have three ionic and two covalent bonds, straight Breaking Bad in this mother"
that was actually the kind of answer I was hoping for lol |
danielcardoso
09.18.15 | Thread turned out longer than one would imagine. |
deathschool
09.18.15 | Well, the question was answered accurately in the first comment, but fuck it |
danielcardoso
09.18.15 | Ahah I was gonna point that out as well. |

09.18.15 | uhh its god guys. any of you idiots read the bible?? |

09.18.15 | from what I've read, God's probably insane and listens to exclusively harsh noise wall with a bit of John Fogarty for good measure |

hilariously cynical yet massively endearing. |
zakalwe
09.18.15 | Yeah, I'll give it a whirl dude. |
BandNewbac
09.18.15 | I have some pencils and some jars.
If I put 4 pencils into each jar, I will have one jar left over.
If I put 3 pencils into each jar, I will have one pencil left over.
How many pencils and how many jars do I have? |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | i would say 5 jars and 16 pencils but somehow i doubt that's the answer |
BandNewbac
09.18.15 | you are correct my friend |
BandNewbac
09.18.15 | how many real functions f are there from R → R satisfying the relation f(x^2 +yf(x)) = xf(x+y) |
zakalwe
09.18.15 | My god, it's the same existence dude except I live near the Thames Estuary which is full of condoms, burnt out motors and turd. It also rains constantly here and I have no secondary education to give me hope of a way out. Even so I still stay clear of EAI whatever the fuck that is (I don't want to go well and truly round the bend!) |

have to do this problem sheet almost entirely in my head lol |
CalculatingInfinity
09.18.15 | "how many real functions f are there from R → R satisfying the relation f(x^2 +yf(x)) = xf(x+y)"
Only one, f(x) = x. |
BandNewbac
09.18.15 | I got 2. |
CalculatingInfinity
09.18.15 | Stating f(a + b) = f(a) + f(b) or true or not really would have helped to find the second one, because I don't know if that's true. |
BandNewbac
09.18.15 | don't wanna make things too easy now do we. |
CalculatingInfinity
09.18.15 | That's not making things easy or not, you HAVE to state it or not or at least say it's unknown whether f(a + b) = f(a) + f(b). That's just being vague. |
BandNewbac
09.18.15 | okay try this:
For any natural number n > 1, write the infinite decimal expansion of 1/n (for example, we write 1/2 = 0.4¯9 as its infinite decimal expansion, not 0.5). Determine the length of the non-periodic part of the (infinite) decimal expansion of 1/n.(let νp(n) be the maximum power of p dividing n; ie P^Vp(n) divides n but not higher power.) |
CalculatingInfinity
09.18.15 | Well I've got another one as well now. |
BandNewbac
09.18.15 | i got max(ν2(n),ν5(n)) |

09.18.15 | wtf happened to this thread |
Jots
09.18.15 | you, for one |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | yeah but I am awesome and we were still talking about the topic |
BeyondCosby
09.18.15 | Really though... in order to get that many reviews are you just listening to an album once and reviewing it? I don't know how most of you guys feel about it but I have to listen to an album at least three or four times before I can properly rate it. and I don't even give albums a five unless I've sat with them for a year or so. |
danielcardoso
09.18.15 | It depends, some albums have so little to tell beyond the first listen that it's easy to formulate an accurate opinion on one sit, others demand more out of the listener. |
BeyondCosby
09.18.15 | True. I guess it wouldn't take much to form an opinion on some music especially if you already have one coming into the listen. I just can't fathom constantly listening to new music. I love going back and just discovering new things over and over within the songs and if the songs become stale then that helps me formulate my rating. Each to his or her own. |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | just think of ratings as placeholders. they aren't set in stone, and if new listens reveal new things about an album etc. that rating can change. when you rate it along the way, whether it's the 1st listen or 100th is ultimately irrelevant |
treeqt.
09.18.15 | this first of all and second at some point you just have enough experience within a genre to comfortably assess an albums quality after one listen |
hal1ax
09.18.15 | ew maths. burn this thread |
BeyondCosby
09.18.15 | That is a wonderful point Keyblade and I have done that with some of my ratings. I guess I'm just a slow appreciator. Props to people who can churn out ratings. |
LoLifant
09.18.15 | but there's that phenomenon of "grower albums" which will always stay underrated if rated after just one or two listens |
treeqt.
09.18.15 | or so you believe |
Ovrot
09.18.15 | who actually rates albums
it only has two choices
either jams or does not jam |
Keyblade
09.18.15 | "but there's that phenomenon of "grower albums" which will always stay underrated if rated after just one or two listens"
umm this phenomenon was clearly accounted for when i said you can...wait for it...change your rating according to how much it grows on you of vice versa! |
