I've started to pay attention to the # of different clubs reviewed by a given tuscl member. I think those of us with larger numbers are most likely the business road warriors (or pilots). I also think we have a broader experience and thus the reviews are slightly more meaningful.
Special props to clubber, samsung1, qwerty...these guys rock with there numbers.
Also no love for the up and cumming future legion killer juicebox.....35 reviews with 18 dif in like 6months and I'm showing no signs of slowing down.......
" I think those of us with larger numbers are most likely the business road warriors (or pilots). I also think we have a broader experience and thus the reviews are slightly more meaningful"
I will disagree slightly with that statement. A low review count doesn't mean that the said individual is NOT experienced in Clubbing. A may just mean that the said individual doesn't care or wish to write a review.
when its 1 and 1 and the review is great, you defo gotta ignore. hey they are all great the first time or we wouldnt go back !
think where you are from counts too. depends what you are used to on your own home patch. i would hate to think what most of you would think of my local clubs thats for sure. you would just give this whole thing up, or like me, travel. but when i review any club i try to be fair and judge it compared to what is expected in that town/area.
I enjoy reading all types of reviews. The superficial reviews are good because they give you an out of town perspective on things and first impressions mean a lot. Also I like the in-depth reviews from the regulars because they will often reveal things that I would otherwise not know.
For example, here in Columbus there is Club X. They have $10 table dances but the club does not advertise these anymore. If it was not for the TUSCL reviews I would have never found out about them. The reason why the club does not advertise them is because the club does not make any money from them compared to the $25 dances where they take a $5 cut from each or the $35 dances where they take a $10 cut.
Juice, oh yeah, you sent me one of your pseudo-homeboy missives where, if I deciphered it correctly, asked me to explain how I get so much OTC.
The answer is that I have a huge cock. When the strippers see it running down my pant leg, they get all moist at the thought of what I could do to them. Shit, sometimes they want to pay me after it is all over. ;)
Or...
I give them lots of cash.
I'll let you figure out which is the right answer here. :)
Rick godamn right ! Lol well I'm screwed on the dick thang but I can do the cas thang I just need to stop being cheap lol.....thanks rick its all I ever wanted fromyou......your goodfriend in the hobby juice
The number of SC's I've been to is a lot higher than I have listed here (member since may). I did a fair amount of traveling in a couple of my previous jobs which allowed for me to partake in different clubs across the country. I agree with samsung - I try to take every type of review into consideration and weight it accordingly.
I am a Road Warrior and am sometimes in a different club every night of the week. I only review the clubs that are worth reviewing though. Most times if I dont have something good to say I dont say anything. There were 2 clubs that I was in last week that I didnt even bother reviewing. Many times I'm too busy to write the review at the time but if it was a good experience I'll be sure to review it within a week or so.
I'll disagree that the total number of reviews or clubs reviewed is reflective of the poster. It's more reflective of how willing they are to share information and stick with one username. I'm a bit paranoid myself and would like to have a clean slate about every two years and wipe out discussion comments after a few months. All discussion comments used to get erased after 2 weeks at one time.
Jes your stats r fuckin sick homboy!.....I club the same way week after week.......a man after my own hart ! Jes is a future hall of famer up and cummmming
It is true shadowcat's friend, I forget his name reviewed a lot of clubs. I think he was number one on the list of most reviews ever when we used to have those lists.
As I recall, I got up to #4 or #5, not that it matters. I was traveling more and when I did, I hit most every club where I was. Last two trips, only five different clubs in GA and one in SC.
I've lived in 4 states but only started visiting strip clubs one state ago and I've been to 49 states. However the total number of different strip clubs I've been to is definitely less than 50, it might be somewhere around 25 or 30. I prefer quality over quantity. Finding this site really helped as far as that goes. I was going places and didn't even know if it was a strip club at one time. As far as strip club discussions go, I would prefer the picture take up most of the discussion profile rather than information we already know for routine posters.
I am not a big fan of a return to lists of top review counts and clubs reviewed, even though I think that I will someday rank fairly well on those lists (and might do ok even now). In my humble opinion, it creates a competitive atmosphere where folks are more likely to post junk reviews just to get their numbers up.
To me, it is all about the quality of the reviews. In the last two years that I have contributed intel to this site, I have reviewed a number of clubs, but have also excluded at least 15 unique clubs simply because my information wasn't good enough to post a proper review (I was too drunk, not there long enough, etc.). As I have said elsewhere, as a general rule of thumb, I will not post a first time review for a club unless I spend a minimum of two hours there, nor will I review the club if I do not have enough information to do a proper job of it.
Nothing pisses me off as much as spending time reading a generic review that gives me no information about the types of girls and the overall atmosphere of the club, especially when that review comes from a user with with a high review count. I don't know about anyone else, but I spend so many nights in clubs each year that I feel zero pressure to pad the stats and my VIP membership already extends out into 2016. I want each one of my reviews to matter. If I cannot provide useful information relating to a particular club that I visited, then I do not post a review.
^And just to be clear, I'm not saying that each of my reviews is a masterpiece or is packed full of insights, but I do make sure that each one, at the very least, contains information about the quality of the girls and the overall atmosphere of the club.
#jestrite50- It would be helpful if you posted those less than stellar reviews as well, not just the ones where you have something good to say. We all learn from the bad experiences too.
The number of reviews a poster has does not matter at all to us. A poster who has 100 reviews of two or three line that don't tell us anything means nothing to us. We want details that would help someone who has not been to that club before, has been a long time ago and wants to know if something has changed or who goes regularly and wants to know if their experience there is the "norm" or an anomoly - good or bad. In other words, if we choose to go and spend our money there what are we most likely to be buying? We put thought into our reviews (as well as all our posts) and wish others would do the same. The point of a review is to be informative. Not everyone who writes a review will be looking for the same things but certain things are consistently important. For insance, how private are the private dance areas?
Reviews that are all run-on sentences, use improper English or tons of degrading language reflect poorly on the reviewer not necessarily the club. We don't believe a misspelled word here or there but at least make the post readable!
As far as info in the basic club listing, does anyone know how frequently that is changed? I ask because a couple of the clubs we have been to recently had very different pricing for both dances and drinks than what was posted on here. We were not the only poster who mentioned the drink prices in our review but the pricing still seemed to reflect the old one.
Borrowing from rickdugan. " I'm not saying that each of my reviews is a masterpiece or is packed full of insights, but I do make sure that each one, at the very least, contains information about the quality of the girls and the overall atmosphere of the club " I may not hit on everything in every review, but I'll post reviews of clubs I've been to before after a period of time. Everything changes, it does all of us here good to know how a club is currently. I don't hit the clubs much these days, but I do stop in from time to time and I value the information everyone here gives.
mOOtpoint - The editors are not scanning the reviews for club details. There used to be a link at the top of the page to update club info like hours of operation, dance prices, etc. Looks like it got dropped in the last revision. Unless the oversight gets fixed, the only way to get details changed is to send Founder a PM.
I think a competition on here to be the top reviewer by club numbers would devolve into what Dugan said, a bunch of crap reviews. Also m00ts make a great point.
If I do a review twice in a month, do I get two months worth of VIP credit? I've always been just doing one when my membership expired.
sanurai - You can only review the same club once every 4 weeks for VIP credit but if you vist 10 clubs in a month, you can do 10 reviews and get 10 weeks of credit.
As far as I can tell the update club info is stll there, just in a different location (below the rating 'bars' and just above where the review list starts)
I think the number of review does have some amount of importance. If a user is only reviewing 1 or 2 clubs then I feel the reviews don't carry as much weight becasue that user simply hasn't experienced enogh places to make an informed comparison.
I think it is not necessary to go to the trouble of seeing how many reviews someone has posted. As many have indicated, it is not always indicative of how much club experience they have. We find that usually comes through loud and clear in the writing of the review itself. All in all, we use TUSCL to find out if a particular club is likely to give US the kind of experience we seek which is not usually what most posters on here are seeking. (IE, couples' experience) So, a poster who says he visited with his wife or SO gets far more weight in our book than someone who visits solo regardless of how many posts because we are looking for a more similar experience.

Wallanon deserves a mention: he compiles an exhaustive list rating best to worst every year.
I look forward to more Toronto exploration. Art's got some new places I need to 'experience'.
I would love a number system again
