I had to take a break from submissions at some point in 2016 after numerous post-review 'sorries' with mostly positive ratings and a couple of adds that haven't received a single spin... and me just being way too invested in it. I've only returned earlier this year and I've had no new adds yet but hey I'll keep trying. I can take the 'sorries' now – they're certainly preferable to the 'maybe' purgatory (where one of my submissions from 2016 is still stuck with a poor showing of 12-15 ).

Mine too (dating back to 2015/the new system), except for a couple in "maybeland" and the one that's just rubbing it in: "Already Have" WELL YOU DIDN'T AT THE TIME ;-) Oh, well.

I guess you never used the old LRC system. Because, damn, that's some funny stuff right there.

Just noticed that the 'more' button at the bottom of the page in the My Submissions view doesn't load more of my submissions, instead switching the whole page to the Newest view.

Also the new/maybe/sorry/added buttons in My Submissions have never worked for me which I didn't mind at first but with the growing number of past submissions it would be nice to be able to use them.

 
Hmmm... seem to have let this - & a couple of other thoughtful bug reports - fall through the cracks. Very sorry about that. I'll be spending some time on this in a couple of weeks.

Uploaded a new-to-RP tune and discovered, it seems, the upload song title field doesn't like the + symbol in the song name.  Weird things happened - wrong YouTube album cover link was displayed in the uploaded listing, and even the album art url to an image file was not displaying the image - instead:  "no image".

Changed the '+' to the word 'and ' then all was well - the Youtube and album art image corrected themselves. 



 
Thanks. Will fix.

I have submitted some songs using this new system and it was easy to do.
It would be nice if RP is able to make a Spotify list from the submitted songs. Then I could listen to them in one move/mouse click instead of opening/starting every song manually.
Now I notice that I only vote on the songs I already know. I believe more people do this because the more known tracks receive more and faster votes.

The second thing is that I would like to make the 'new' view the default view instead of the popular view. With the popular view the usual suspects that receive votes more easy are getting a second boost while the more rare and maybe very nice songs are ignored by most listeners.

Also the list seems to be very large. There is no 'sliding window' like in the old process. After some time (2 weeks?) Bill should make a final statement and the song should be removed from the list.

The last thing is that I think Bill has a certain personal view on the music he plays here. I don't say thats wrong, because the site/radio is a big success so obviously he is doing excelent work. But I would like to see a more democratic process. Why not remove the first filter process and let the user decide about the quality of the submission? Bill has the final decission obviously but he might be influenced when the actual listener really likes a certain submission while Bill would instinctively decide to say no on the first glance.

Edit: I think I found a bug within the edit submission process. I tried to change the thumbnail. The link changes and gets saved, but the shown thumbnail stays the same.

I was wondering if a Bandcamp link could be one of the options in the future? I know many indie artists have their music (or at least most album tracks) only there. I think they have an embed option too.

Is the new song submissions system down? I ask because I submitted two songs this past Saturday, and I don't see them under the new listings.

Not that my song suggestions are all that important... but I noticed that the newest submission since Saturday has been Toto's "Africa," and I can't hep but think that other listeners have tried to load new submissions since then as well.

 
Submissions are not immediately visible. They go through an initial review process, and are then either immediately added, declined, or added to the user-review list (status: "maybe").
