 Posted: Wed Oct 17, 2007, 09:06 (GMT) Post subject: My private stats |
 |
|
I've just found the new feature "My private stats" and had a check there - this is the result:
| Quote: | Since Sep 17, 2007 you have received 10 invitations to submit auditions and proposals through Voice123.
During this same time period, all Voice123 Premium Subscribers that also speak German and Other have received an average of 158.85 invitations to submit auditions or proposals (approx.)
As such, during this period of time, you have received 93.70% less invitations to submit auditions and proposals than other Premium Subscribers that also speak German and Other. |
Could anybody explain what this means? Are these stats based on private, smart cast or all auditions? Are these stats reliable?
Thanks for any hint
Thomas

Hi, Thomas --
Hot button issue, these stats. Hard to believe you were only invited to 10 since September. You can check on it yourself, and if it doesn't agree with your own count, write to the good people at Customer Service.
As for their general reliability, you may want to read the discussions on one of the many threads regarding this topic in CHIT CHAT section. Start with: We have STATS!

Ha!
Thomas you mean you can't understand your stats!
Well join the rest of us including the voice123 staff who don't seem to understand them either because you will get a different answer from them every time you ask.

Forget delving into the stats, Thomas, as you'll only hurt yourself. 
Meanwhile, where's your English-language demo on your page....?
Even if you're accented... it will be an authentic accent and could tweak any number of Seekers as to the possibilities.

I agree with Ron. Don’t concentrate too much on the stats. I don't even look at them.
My plan is to do the best job I can until someone taps me on the shoulder and says; “Dude, it’s over. Go home.”
Ron also makes a good point about getting an English demo on your page. I’ve heard tons of crappy German accents (Including mine)
I think a seeker would love to hear something authentic.

Hey, thanks for all your replies!
Diane: | Quote: | | Hard to believe you were only invited to 10 since September |
Yes it's true, that's all I got - I was just wondering about the 158.58% more invitation that went to the other German VOs here...???
George: | Quote: | | Well join the rest of us including the voice123 staff |
That's a good one LOL! Well, I didn't check this site frequently during the last couple of weeks and missed all the stats discussions, since I was occupied organizing my marriage... Yeah, that's right: 10 invitations for an audition since september, but only 1 girl willing to marry me in 47 years 
Ronald and Steve: | Quote: | | Even if you're accented... it will be an authentic accent and could tweak any number of Seekers as to the possibilities. |
That's a very good point: I never thought of that before - well, stay tuned, I'll add a demo as soon as possible!
Cheers from (not yet but soon) very cold Switzerland,
Thomas

Thomas-
You have been automatically invited to audition for this marriage. Please don't audition if you believe the spouse may not exactly fit your living style and budget.
You have been invited to audition for 27.23% more weddings than the other paying members of this website. Therefore you are paying 31.80% less per potential marriage.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember, the more often you propose, the less dates you will get from other potential marriage partners. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact a divorce attorney. They are the only people who truly understand Smartmatchmaker.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Congratulations!

Hi folks,
I really love your humour!
| Quote: | | You have been automatically invited to audition for this marriage. |
Oh no, it wasn't that easy, I must say, I had to fight for it (especially 'cause my wife (!) is a pro for tango, flamenco, salsa and oriental dance - so I had to take many many lessons in order to not look like an idiot beside her on the dance floor....) So, the auditioning time might have been fun (although very exhausting), but when it comes to making contracts, jee, you have to be a professional (like me...) 
Crystina: | Quote: | | Here's to many, many Blessed years!!! |
Thank you so much! It's so great to read you again here! Still no plans for visiting Switzerland? (at least your name should make you curious about seeing the country of your ancestors)
Well, the wedding took place two weeks ago, and you know what: it was a real great feeling to be once picked up the way Don LaFontaine usually goes to his next vo gig: [/list]
Cheerio
Thomas

Your bride, Thomas, is such a glorious beauty! And you're such a mutt! But then, I, as well, know what it is to have to make it only on "personality" and "talent"!
Best wishes to you both.

Congratulations - did you get married in Europe!
My brother (who lives in Munich) just married a Swiss actress - they eloped to Las Vegas a few months ago - because they thought the inter-European paperwork was going to be too much.
Long story - the paperwork is still a mess...
But it also means that now I have Swiss family and we'll be planning a trip there sometime!
