Comment on SoundPrint: Telling those of us with auditory sensitivities where not to go

Comments

What prevents a bad actor from wailing into their phone for 15 seconds and making a submission?

It should become statistically insignificant / an outlier / literal noise with enough submissions.

My understanding is they simply average the SoundChecks to give the oveall score and haven't looked at outliers yet...so I guess if you're very against a particular venue you can simply scream into your phone for 15 seconds repeatedly and give them a very bad average score XD

I suppose you'd be better off staying away from them anyway.
