I'm confused as this seems to be the opposite of your original point

"I think that knowing exactly the evolution of voting will bore you in a few weeks..."

The idea of a robot or RSS feed would be so we don't have to keep pressing update and transferring the new data to the spreadsheet, just to save some time.

The bottom line here is that some of us like to do this and see what scores we are being given, it is of course not compulsary.
We tend to discuss the various trends of voters, which again we like to do and again is not compulsary.

Whilst I accept that using this approach reveals when we have been give a 1 lets say and can trigger a bit of anger; however after a while you come
to accept the nature of the voters and simply enjoy the travking process.

It's not for everyone that is for sure but if, like me, you like to do this then this is also perfectly ok.


Maybe i didnt make myself clear (sorry, but im not a native english speaker).
I mentioned "knowing exactly the evolution"... so... i like to follow the evolution of votes... and keep wandering what happened if my average score went up or down... wandering what score someone gave to me... etc. But if a have some program doing this, i just go out to lunch and, when return, i check that i had 23 votes, being x times 3, y times 6, z times 7... so... all that "wandering" thing went out thru the sink... and now i just can be happy cause i had some 10, or furious cause i had some 1... and when the challenge finishes, i just ignore the final stats, because "i already knew it, during every minute of the challenge" (another emotion dropped out).
Well... I agree that this is a personal choice... and could be perfectly ok... but as someone said... if 100 users make this, the site could crash and nobody will know it´s own scores... and... besides... as someone also said ... this procedure seem to be forbbiden, and subject to penalties under the site rules...
If they allow this, or if they put some RSS feeds, OK... the whole thing becomes a personal choice... If not, some individual choices could be harmful to the individual (banning) and also to the community (crashing the site)...

PS.: im a registered user... and i have to wait one hour to wander what happened on the last hour... (thinking seriously on paying to get the "update button") :P

Hey Jose

Each to their own eh.

I'm certainly not advocating the use of a system that violates the rules of the site, just that it would be nice to have the information available on the fly as it were
if users wanted it, lets say a box in the preferences that one could check if you wanted that level of dymanic information.

More to the point how are you getting on in this challenge? any 1s or 10s ?.... only joking lol

Yeah pay for that button... it will take over your life lol

I need more of anything except 5's. One of my goals is a love it or hate it entry, with the score breakdown showing a valley in the 5's. I could have one here. Maybe.

That's a very high score, just in case you had not figured it out yet. If that is what your usual work will bring in, you will be a ribbon hog in short order.

Well it was at 6.4 yesterday morning, but it seems that 4 2's brought it down to earth with a bump Lol
Overall I got 10 10's which amazed me and I finished 19th.
Last minute votes got it to 6.3152

We'll see how my motivational entry goes I guess.
