August 18, 201212 yr WOT do you guys do this to boost play counts? or like to correct missing ones? D: For me it's to correct missing ones. Like if I listen to 40+ songs on my iPod and they don't scrobble haha.
August 18, 201212 yr My iPod always scrobbles, not necessarily each day but it always catches up, unless the song hadn't been scrobbled through my iPod before.
August 18, 201212 yr Author For me it's to correct missing ones. Like if I listen to 40+ songs on my iPod and they don't scrobble haha. ah yes of course! i feel like i should do that too but i'd get all anal about how many are missingggg and i'd wanna time it to the letterrrrr and UGH it would just be a haute mess ):
August 18, 201212 yr If I ever need to correct anything, I either reset my account (did that once on impulse) or I use a manual scrobbler like this one: http://universalscrobbler.invitationstation.org/ I have also been known to go through my recently played tracks and deleted anything I didn't want scrobbling. It's the closest thing to OCD I ever do, and I treasure it.
August 18, 201212 yr wow i never realised people were so into it like this! i've never really bothered with scrobbling from my ipod and i play most songs from my phone anyway. plus it would just be flooded with podcasts.
August 18, 201212 yr Mine is http://www.last.fm/user/Beastisb Although beware of the play counts of my songs.. :D

It's the closest thing to OCD I ever do, and I treasure it. My mind is blown by that website! (I can't work out how to log in though?) I'd never reset my account or delete songs I don't want to scrobble though, it wouldn't be accurate! Someone restting my account might be what I need though, it might stop my obsession.

Someone restting my account might be what I need though, it might stop my obsession. It's on the top right, to log in. I only changed things because they were wrong (i.e once it wasn't scrobbling because my password wasn't entered and when I fixed that a week's worth of songs started scrobbling 20 times each - which took an age to sort out), rather than altering it because I want to make my music tastes look better.

Yeah, I can see the boxes but I can't see a login button? Maybe it doesn't like my browser. Ahhh ok, that's fair enough. I don't understand people who'd want to make their taste look better, but maybe that's me being anal about manipulating stats. *geek*
August 18, 201212 yr I should point out I only do that thing when I'm listening to something on CD or whatever. People who artificially boost their playcounts are obv lunatics. Spill! (I might want to steal the idea!) Well basically (can't believe I'm saying this) I like the top 8 most played artists to have playcounts that are a multiple of 5, so if Madonna is on 4028 I'll make a playlist with 7 or 12 songs LOL. :(

The two of you can share your odd quirks.

I'm not quite that OCD, but I do occasionally scroll through my list and play anyone who has a playcount ending in a 4 or 9 to give them a rounder number.
August 19, 201212 yr WOT do you guys do this to boost play counts? or like to correct missing ones? D: To correct shit COURSE. Although I HAVE met people on there who CUT songs into 45-second (or 1:30-minute i don't recall) pieces and play them side by side. Several scrobbles for one song! That's quite insane tbh.

When Hold It Against Me first came out there were people who'd listened to it about 500 times more than was physically possible since its leak. :manson:
August 19, 201212 yr Oh and I have bookmarked that website from Eyes, it's amazing thank you so much! :D BTW: http://i50.tinypic.com/67tt2o.jpg http://www.moopy.org.uk/forums/images/smilies/disco.gif
August 19, 201212 yr http://www.last.fm/user/freekai Thank god there are others who are as obsessed with this site as I am. And yes, I do correct plays as well. :lol:
