Missing your requests

Post by Mr.ToadWildRider » Mar Fri 09, 2007 4:29 pm

Don't you hate it when you think "I have some time to listen to Sub" and make your requests and then can't even listen to them? Today marks my second consecutive attempt at hearing WOL full loop and MISSED THE ENTIRE THING. I just requested the loop and the Cronkite SSE....and had to turn of Sub to run another program just in time to catch half the Cronkite....Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Yeah. I remember when I used to request often. For some reason I would listen for a few minutes before my request would come up, get distracted and leave the room only to come back after my request had passed. I'd be all, "Dang it!"

Funny you should mention it... the same thing happened to me today. I requested several tracks while at work, and no sooner had I hit the request button than someone needed me and I was called away from my desk. Missed a big chunk of my requested music. As you said... GRRRR!

Requested some awesome Flame Tree BBQ music today, but then ran outside to grab a quick sub at Subway....darn my hunger.

Wow, never had that happen thankfully. I don't think I've ever experienced the server dying period. When I miss my songs it's strictly my fault.

That's happened to me a few times.

Another thing that used to happen was, I would request a song then check to see when it would approximately play, only to be dismayed when there's a long loop ahead of my request.

I think that happened to me once, now I always check "Now playing" before I request. The one thing that I still experience is I'll be in the middle of making my requests and someone will request a really long track or something in the middle of my requests and while i'm listening my first reaction is "What the heck? Did the rest of my tracks not register?" then I load up the page and go to now playing and realize what the cause is :shock:

A lot like the problem stated above, how about when your picking your songs you want to play. You pick 2 out, then someone else sneaks in an hour long song in the middle of your play list, lol

That only bothers me when I'm trying to build my requests around a theme, like Tomorrowland, evening shows, or extinct attraction of Epcot or something and someone inevitabley throws POTC or HM in the middle. :lol:

Guilty to messing with someone's request pattern. Not on purpose though!
