Default How to speak DJ

a quick translation for those of you who need help understanding what DJs
mean when they speak to the press.

FROM DJ MAG
In an unprecedented move, who’s been booted out of our Top 100 DJs poll?
The biggest DJs at the centre of our investigation were US stars Christopher Lawrence and DJ Dan. Both shared the same marketing manager.“In both their cases, a script was used to bypass our security system,” said Roberston. “

Both Lawrence and Dan vehemently denied any involvement in vote rigging. “I take this matter very seriously,” said DJ Dan.

means : oh shit, we better find a fall guy

“My assistant and I confronted my former marketing manager via telephone. ...When I discovered the common link was our marketing person, I immediately terminated him.”

means : I'm in this up to my neck, but I'm f*cked if I'm taking the blame

Lawrence’s lawyer Kent Liu said: “My clients are willing to declare under oath that they themselves did not purchase or use a script, nor did they instruct any person in their employ to do so.”

means : we found an IT geek who would work for free and told them to fix the poll , but we said nothing about them using a script to do it.

More voting irregularities surround the Flash Brothers from Israel — we detected over 1300 votes from the same IP address. They blamed “friends and family”.
It appears that some of our friends and family simply wanted to surprise us at all costs and help our cause.

means : its just a coincidence that my grandma is a hacker



coming soon...

What's a marketing manager then Does he do the shopping for you

It does show how important getting onto this list is for the DJ's which has been exactly my point over the last couple of years with regards to the VJ list. It increases business Are the guys in the top 20 really that affraid of the extra competition

This is freaking hilarious. I always wondered how all those half ass clowns manage to stay in the top 100 so long. Some of them can't even watch their levels so they don't clip their signal.

it just shows how having an internet voting scheme can be so compromised and open to abuse..
