All reviews contained this feature as of 2004, maintaining cumulative totals that are checked automatically and manually once per month to ensure that voting fraud is eliminated. When you rate a score at Filmtracks, a copy of your IP address and vote is stored in the system. If you attempt to blatantly vote too often for a soundtrack (generally more than once per month per review), that system will immediately block you. A more comprehensive program to sniff out fraud is run once per month and, through the process of examining voting trends, detects longer term fraud. The goal of these procedures is to present the most accurate tally possible, whether a soundtrack has received 50 votes or 50,000.<br> <br> These indeces are divided into several sections to allow soundtracks and albums of similar types to compete fairly against each other. For the purposes of these rating indeces, the "Modern" section contains only Digital Age soundtracks (as opposed to the main review indeces at the site, which define the Bronze and Digital Ages as "Modern"). This is to allow Digital Age soundtracks to compete without the extremely popular scores from the Bronze Age (1976-1987) perpetually dominating the ranks. As of 2009, however, the master rank of "All Listings" is provided as well.<br> <br> Each of the indeces pages is updated once per day by the system, so while your votes on the review pages will be accounted for immediately in the totals and average displayed there, there will be a delay of up to 24 hours before those updated results appear in these indeces. This is to improve performance of the indeces to meet the heavy demands of the feature.<br> <br> As a general rule, when using these vote tallies to influence your purchasing decisions, remember to put most of your faith in the 2-star, 3-star, and 4-star rating sums. By comparing these three totals, you can bypass the usual concentration of fringe votes and recognize what is always the most telling and accurate consensus opinion about the soundtrack. To help ease unbalanced voting, each score begins with 20 votes set evenly by the system (4 votes for each star rating) to deter early skewing of averages; once an album receives 100 user votes, the original 20 are automatically subtracted by the system. Thus, you will never see any tally per star on a rating at a value less than four.<br> </div> </td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" style="width: 1034px;"> <div style="margin: 0px 34px 10px 34px;">  </div> </td></tr></table>  </td><td style="width: 123px; text-align: right;">  </td></tr></table>  </td></tr></table>  </div>  </td></tr> <tr><td style="text-align: center; background: url(/images/2015/common/footer_back.jpg) no-repeat 50% bottom; vertical-align: bottom;">  <div style="background: url(/images/2015/common/footer_swoosh.png) no-repeat top; margin-left: 50px; min-height: 75px;"> <div style="margin: 0 auto; width: 960px; padding: 38px 54px 15px 0px; font-size: 0.7em; color: #3e4fa6;"> Copyright © 1999-2025, Filmtracks Publications.
