I'm finally here today, and I just saw this. Do we still need to email members? I think that's a great idea. I'll help if there are any letters left but I'd have to do it tomorrow.

I was so bad today, I only got in a few requests with a couple of addys, and a few calls; I just didn't have a lot of time. I haven't gotten any emails so far, and I've only gotten a few since friday. I still think they must track requests through the computer somehow, even though the replies seem personalized, because how else would they know that it's lots of requests from the same small group of us? I will definately get on it tomorrow.

I've wondered if they are logging IP addresses. Whenever I am near a computer with internet access, I try to request on it (using a different email than my primary) so that I get a different IP address. Unfortunately, I am not around that many computers with internet access. Although I did go through some training at work a couple weeks ago and was able to request from like 25 different computers in the training room!

that's awesome you managed to do that at your training Becky! Michele has done the same thing at her computer lab. I'm dying to know if they do use IP addresses. That is, if I'm reading wikipedia :ha: correctly. I know, I know. :ha: Wikipedia, it's awful, but I lurve me some Wikipedia. :wub:

Early specifications intended IP addresses to each be uniquely assigned to a particular computer or device. However, it was found that this was not always necessary as private networks developed and address space needed to be conserved (IPv4 address exhaustion). RFC 1918 specifies private address spaces (also known as non-routable addresses) that may be reused by anyone; today, such private networks typically connect to the Internet through Network Address Translation (NAT). In addition, technologies such as anycast addressing have been developed to allow multiple hosts at the same IP address but in different portions of the Internet to service requests by network clients.


Isn't that saying that IP codes aren't unique to just one computer anymore?

All I know is, Sirius needs to be way more lax :lol: and I have googled more shit over this matter in the last month or two than I care to admit. :blush2: I've combined all possible words in Google searches to figure out how to make this happen, from all different angles, short of "how the f do you get your favorite band to number one on Sirius altnation" :lmao: but I still have no clue. Maybe that's the problem, maybe I need to google "how the f do you get your favorite band to number one on Sirius altnation".

Michele I'm glad Sarah had a good time partying it up! Ben's party with friends was yesterday and he had a blast, until the last five minutes :doh: but that's another subject for another thread.

And nope Michele you don't suck and Mary I hear you, I couldn't do many requests yesterday either, plan to do a bunch tonight. Off to do a few now here at work at :q: this IP adddress :q:

:frantic: Been requesting tons, using alllll kinds of email addys and names :frantic: :lol: !


I wonder if the IP address makes a difference? Very interesting, indeed :frantic: . I wish I had the time during the day, every day to log onto every computer in the lab, but I just can't. May take my lunch break tomorrow to do it, though, if no classes are in there :frantic: !


Great news about more airplay :yahoo: ! YAY!

Woo Hoo! They also have more plays so far this week than they got last week.

It's funny, the number of times I requested this week was less than last but I used 9 different emails instead of 10 and I made sure to make a lot of calls from 3 different phones.

I'm going to get more emails to use this week and different phones. :lol:

It feels weird to be requesting LESS, but yeah Kerri I'm doing the same thing, guess it's all had some kind of dent! :yahoo:

Since they seem to be going through it all with a fine tooth comb, I'm trying to make sure I'm not doing all the different identities and emails at the same time. You know, not hitting them with a barrage of ten different IMH requests from :q: ten people :q: within seconds of each other. :giggle: It's harder to do though 'cause you feel less focused when you do them so randomly.

Great news!!! :bouncing: I've been doing less requests, partly because I've been so busy, but with different emails, and spacing them out like Julie said. It makes it feel more disorganized, but it seems to be working better; go figure.

I lost my cheat sheet of which names and locations I was using with which email addys. So I know I've mixed up a couple names since I lost it. :doh:

Well ya know... if someone has the time to figure out that :q: Victoria :q: , who used to email from Des Moines......is now emailing from Baltimore.....well then someone has a lotta time on their hands. :lol:

Victoria moved, ok Sirius??? Get over it. :ha: She's unpacking boxes but she STILL has time to request Your Vegas!!!

:blush2:

Really seems like they process a lot of requests on Sundays, I know we said that before and the same seems to be the case again. I've been getting them back all throughout the day as I've been making them, from 7 am til now at 3. Keep requesting! :dance2:
