Rewiew to visit relationship and scoring methodologies?
Dolfan
What did 50 Cent do when he got hungry? 58.
I'm not compelled to review a club every visit, but some places I visit regularly with varied results for a variety of reasons and the results could be useful to potential clubbers. For example Dreamgirls in WPB seems to constantly be changing its prices, policies, and even the layout is in flux.
While we're on the subject - what's the general feeling for scoring the girls? I tend to grade on a curve, a stripper I'd rate as an 8 might be a 6 or 7 if were chatting her up at a bar without titties out and about. Am I being too generous? I also tend to rate based on an overall average - which may not really be fair. As long as there are ample 8-9's around does the fact that there is a surplus of 2-3's really matter that much?

QUESTION: What is the general feeling on multiple visits and reviews?
ANSWER: I generally do a "composite" rating, if having visited a club several times over a recent period. I find there's enough consistency to make this accurate. I seldom have a fantastic time one visit, and then a totally shitty time the next.
QUESTION: what's the general feeling for scoring the girls?
ANSWER: I tend to rate on an absolute scale, or at least think I do. An 8 is an 8, regardless of whether or not she's naked, fun, flirty, etc. In my mind, the rating is meant to convey a general impression of the girl's hotness when first seeing them.
QUESTION: Does the fact that there is a surplus of 2-3's really matter that much?
ANSWER: Generally, yes. What makes Mon Venus so special is that most the girls are 8 - 10s. It makes the whole place jump when all the girls on stage and wandering around look like models. By contrast, a wide range dampens my overall impression of a place, although I can still enjoy the occasional 8 or 9 when she comes walking by...
I score the dancers the same whether the club is topless, nude or bikini only. I base it off her looks and her dance.
A surplus of 2-3's does matter a lot, since this often points to a badly or indifferently managed club.
As far as rating girls, my rating is based on a combination of beauty and mileage. An 8 is certainly an 8 in terms of beauty, but if she allows low mileage then her rating ("value") goes down because she makes the experience less enjoyable.
$ value- how much of a deal i can get
dancer quality- how hot the dancers are
overal club- how the club looks
i do not base the dancer quality on number of dancers. its quality not quantity. I do however factor in how many hot girls vs how many dogs.
the $ value is usually the lowest because i try to get there during happy hour when drinks are half off. usually i get there slightly before and i miss out. also i base this on how many 2 for 1s i can get. if i just take single dances then the $value goes down.
As for reviews - I appreciate the nuts and bolts of the club to be listed (layout, prices, hours, etc.). I like the reviewer to describe his club experience (explicitly or in code words). Humour, wry cynicism, irony all make the review better. There are a few very talented writers submitting reviews here on tuscl. I also appreciate a recommendation from the reviewer. A short time on tuscl and it is soon evident who the credible reviewers are.
As for me, I do not do multiple reviews for the same club. If things change at the club or if it has been many months since my review I will submit another review for the same club.
Try to explain your scoring where apropriate but we all have different tastes.
And you always have to take all reviews with a grain of salt. Our mileage might and will vary.
As for the ratings, I think if you spend enough time here you start to get a sixth sense as to who/what to trust and when to throw the BS flag. What it comes down to for me is did the reviewer have a good time, can I believe the review, and do I think I can havea good time as well.
On dancer grades, I give range, and general prominence of dancers. (Eg, dancer attractivess 5-9, mostly 7ish).
It's up to you as to how many times that you review a particular club. The way that the overall TUSCL club rating system works...it will automatically average all of your ratings for a particular club over a period of time (the last 2-3 years?) to come up with one numerical rating to be folded into all the other reviewer's numerical ratings.
You will get VIP credit for a review of a club if you haven't reviewed that same club within the last 30 days or so. The site will prompt you on this when you are about to submit a review.
"Am I being too generous?"
Rating dancer looks is highly subjective by definition. It all comes out in the wash IMO. If I see dancers that are a 4-8 on my scale, then that club usually gets a 6 from me on that factor. To each his own though.
