"Total Remixes"

Has anyone noticed that "remixes" has been replaced with "total remixes" under a project. I think this is Scratch's way of stopping people remix their projects to get on the front page.

Nice job  smile

Re: "Total Remixes"

I'm not getting this. Does this mean from now on you will not be able to remix anyones project? Because or else the "total remixes" would always be changing. Can someone explain the point of this better to me please?


Dear Scratch Users,
I'm done with scratch, or at least making projects. I have made one last big game, thats both fun and teaches a lesson about water. It'd mean a lot if you gave me feedback.                              http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/bosox397/569201

Re: "Total Remixes"

They changed the wording to "Total Remixes."

The change, suggested by andresmh, was to change the value for top remixed from remixes to most remixers. That means that one person can't repeatedly remix his/her own project to get top remixed.

The intent is to show Self Remixes and Total Remixes as separate values on the screen.  Only the Self Remix values were not working properly so they were removed, temporarily.  As I said, it is not finished yet.

Re: "Total Remixes"

One thing I have seen happen... Someone made a project, and another person made like 12 remixes of that same project, and they all still show up as "total remixes". For something to be a "total remix", of another project, it shouldn't be a self remix of a self remix of a self remix of a self remix of a total remix of the project.

Re: "Total Remixes"

Also, I accidentally remixed my own project, and it still listed it in the 'total remixes' section.

Self remixes are supposed to show up in Total Remixes...what is missing is that there is supposed to be another count showing remixes by others.  I'm not sure why that count is not showing up.  I will look into it.
