There has always been talk, even by support, of a rating in the background that impacts your account, or implication there was one, but with no transparency people dismissed it or called it conspiracy.
For some reason they are bringing it to the public.
If you test the gauge and read what it's for it matches exactly what many people have said, it's pretty much nearly the same real-time ranking system.
The issue is now that it's public, will support now lack the ability to fix it? Declines are already too loose and each one counts, it's not just if a provider reports you, so this can be a problem down the line, unless they change what "counts".
Don't forget in many cases currently "too many responses" counts as a decline, that's the first thing they should fix.
With this indicator they can blame shift now too, and complaints about lack of surveys many have here, or poor rotation can easily be dismissed by telling you it's your score, whether that's the case or not.
For direct reports by requestors, unless there's an Mturk system where both users and requestors are rated to call out unfair reports, even that part is begging for catastrophe. Qmee has requestors anonymous right now which complicates things. It's completely one sided.
My 9/10 could unfairly be 4/10 quickly.
Is it just me or is the background score extremely jarring? The music and lyrics just seem extremely irrelevant and irritating, and I always find myself waiting for the damn song to end.
Stumbled upon a really nice Youtube video that was simply mesmerizing in terms of storytelling, shots, and the background score.
However, I'm curious about the background music that starts playing from 1:15 mark till 1:30. It picks up again around 07:24 lasting until 08:00. My Shazam-fu didn't help.

Any leads?
Hello everyone,
I was hoping to ID just a couple of tracks from the series, but they’re not the ones people usually ask about. If anyone could help, I’d be very grateful. I was desperately looking for:
- S03E02 — The score playing during Nora’s hotel chat with Mark Linn Baker at (21:13).
- S02E04 — the electronic score playing in the background while Kevin looks over at the car and notices his palm print on the window, before the cop asks him to show his wrist band (09:27).
- S02E07 — The score that plays when Patti messes with Kevin in the car, telling him about the Scholar’s Cup (09:40).
Thanks to anyone who can help
Does Sterling background checks red flag your credit?
What I mean is, my credit score is around 667 because I have 2 out of a few other credit cards that have literally 95% used. But the limit on both equals only $1,500. I’m a student so the balances aren’t high. If I paid at least half of those my credit score would go up, but I don’t have time to pay that much this week or next. A job I just got an offer for requested a background check and I’m worried that credit card thing would give me an issue. Otherwise, everything else on my credit is immaculate. Never missed a payment in my 3 years of history, no derogatory marks, no criminal history, nothing. I was at 740 a few months ago but that was when my 2 main credit cards were less than 50%. Also, is Experian more reliable than CreditKarma?
The job is a biglaw firm, but i’m only going to be the front desk clerk LOL. So I dont think it would be an issue?
Just worried that this small inconvenience would compromise my check. Thank you!
I really wanted to hear this background score from Lazy in space that often plays when cardamom is around. It also plays when Bee plays in a puddle of cake in the series. Anyone knows the name of the song. I NEED IT. I watch that scene when I'm anxious and wish it was longer.
Like Unfinished hope from Premam https://youtu.be/5bJWUC2uCF4
I just love what it adds to a scene in the show when an older song is brought back as a faint instrumental theme in the background. I just rewatched the series end-to-end for the first time since I watched the series finale live, and I never realized until now that when >!Valencia proposes to Beth, we hear "Women Gotta Stick Together" lightly on piano.!<
What are some other examples you like of musical numbers being reprised to score a scene in the show? I did notice the first time I watched the finale that >!"Maybe This Dream" plays during Paula's negotiation scene which made me tear up again on my rewatch.!<
I’ve been rewatching Micronesia on Netflix and I had forgotten about the theme music behind the black widow brigade every time they were scheming. I’ve been wondering if anyone else has picked up on very clever music cues used throughout the seasons? (Also rewatched Pearl Islands recently which had the pirate scores woven throughout)
Like, I just don't get it.
Danny Lux has compiled such beautiful background scores which the later seasons just refuse to use. Instead we get some lame ass clunky dialoges paired with absolutely silent background noise. Feels like I'm watching a documentary.
Using songs and scores gives a vibe to the scene, seasons 1 to 8 had them almost during the entire time, and these songs and scores carried us from one scene to another.
The background instrumental scores like that Mer Der theme and stuff. Where can I listen to those?
I'll go first.
I took my test on 9/27. It was my second attempt. My first test I ran out of time and missed 40 questions so I just bubbled in A for each of those questions last minute. Scored a 123. This time I was able to finish right on time with 20 seconds to spare. I came out of the exam feeling fairly confident, more so happy that I was just able to get through all the questions (as I'm typically a very slow test-taker) but am hoping I answered enough right. It's been about 8 days now. I feel like the more days that go by the more I think and self doubt myself. I wish there was a more efficient way for them to get results to you, especially because those that have taken the exam multiple times have more anxiety. I could have pushed the test 3 days before the score release but I was just ready to get it over with. I think everyone that's studying gets there at some point. At least this time I feel a glimmer of hope. Let's see what Thursday brings.
I have spent about the last decade in school between undergrad and grad school and know there is more to life than school, studying and tests! I am so over it and ready to move on.
I also want to know what got you into OT?!
I went to OT school to become peds OT and work in either early intervention or a pediatric developmental hospital unit. I worked with kids with developmental delays/autism as a teacher's aide in the past and really enjoyed it and wanted to further my career.
Good luck everyone. You all studied hard and did the best you could, even if it doesn't turn out the way you want it to. After all, it is just a test, and you can take it again (as I know). Also, there is no way a test can measure how good of an OT you will be in the real world.
Now your turn!
So the thing is, my math background is very weak. I'm pretty convinced it's not because I'm weak at grasping concepts. I just didn't try hard enough back in school
I am convinced it was my lack of dedication because the quants in CFA don't seem to hard to grasp now that I've grown older and actually seem to give a damn
So considering that and also that I'm gonna attempt GMAT after clearing level 1 and level 2 CFA, but still have a shitty base in math, what are the chances of me scoring well in the quant section?
Hey guys, I really like movies with a great score and an exciting plot. The ones which I like include Gladiator, Inception, Hacksaw Ridge, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmaron, The Dark Knight, Rush, Life of Pi. Can you guys suggest any movies on the similar lines?

24 year old white male, Texas born and raised
- Why I want an MBA:
I'm just stuck; I'm a bit bored in life and want to expand my horizons, and I've always wanted an MBA just to say I had one. I have a kid on the way and I believe I'd have a better work life balance attending school and not working than continuing to work as I am.
- Why I want one now:
I'm sick of my company culture and would like to take some time away from it. I would like to expand my horizons into something that I am more passionate about and care more about. I have a child on the way in a few months which I would like to be around the house for.
Target schools:
Rice Jones, primarily, as well as UT Austin McCombs; I live in and plan on remaining in Texas.

Stats
- Undergrad GPA: 2.86 / 4.0 Bachelor's in Finance (Worked full time throughout college while taking 18 credit hours a semester and 12 hours of summer courses. A lot of it was burnout but a lot of it was simply just laziness. I finished my degree in a year and a half though.)
- GMAT: 720, expiring soon as I received it fresh out of my Bachelor's degree (I was planning on attending Vanderbilt for a MSF to follow the IB route, but the job I ended up taking was more than good enough.)
Final Thoughts:
- What are some jobs that might interest me? Money is no concern, my job has paid me much more than well enough and I am well-communicated and liked within my organization. I am more than sure I can return after taking a few years off, and if I find
I've got a project or three that will eventually require me to use the musical score from a certain scene in a movie as the background music for a 2D or 3D scene I want to animate. Ideally, I would just find the original standalone recording of the score somewhere, but unfortunately this specific score was apparently lost in a basement flood in the 90s (the movie in question is from the 70s).
What I would like to be able to do is try to listen to the score in the background of this scene and very carefully try to replicate each instrument in some kind of composition software to re-create the score from scratch. Is it possible to learn just enough about music and composition to do this very specific thing? Is there a sort of bare minimum I would need to dive into to pull this off? I've never really been interested in music beyond listening to playlists on shuffle and I have no interest in or passion for learning theory/composition beyond what is required for this/these project(s). If I was rich I'd probably try to commission someone to do it for me (is that a thing?), but alas I'm a broke dude working on his own in his spare time.
Thanks for the help!
EDIT: As others have stated, I'm asking the impossible here. I'm just going to wait a bit longer and try to hire somebody. Thanks for all the replies!
