Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q. How does the locking algorithm work?

In general, requesting a tune causes it to be locked for 14 days, no matter who queues it (including djrandom). There are two exceptions:

The random-favourite request button ignores lock times. When it queues a tune, that tune is locked for a short time, about two hours, just so we don't hear the same thing too many times in a row. Additionally, the button tries not to queue any tune that was played in the last 12 hours.

There is some sort of race condition bug in the random-favourite-request code, apparently, as once in awhile a tune will get queued twice in succession. The bug is difficult to reproduce, but we're aware of it and will try to fix it.
