Hey everyone,

This is just a small announcement thread regarding the new "smart" rating system that has been introduced on Twilight.ws since this Saturday. (Yes I coded on new years eve but not the whole evening ;))

Since our latest recode which you all have heard about (if not click here) the database structure has completely changed allowing us to "do more" with the information we receive when a website submits downloads.
We are promising a lot of new features in the future, this is one of them ;)

We can now officially calculate (based on the file host requirements) what the score of a certain website is. This score is determined by the quality of your submission.
This means a website that submits all downloads hosted on several golden file hosts has more points/a higher score than a website that submits only 1 bronze file host.

Based on the requirements listed in the webmasters area you also know what score your website must have before it is eligible for a certain rating.

You can check the score of your website any time by filling in your domain name under the "My website information" part in the webmasters area. (If someone would be kind enough to PM me his/her TWCP account information I will be able to add it too in the TWCP).

Thanks for your attention, I wish you all a Happy Newyear!

PS: I cannot stress enough that the webmasters area is a page full of information that will help you 90% of the time without needing to contact us. You cannot imagine how many email we receive with questions that are answered on the link I gave above. It would save both our team and yourself time if you would read it ;)

UPDATE Jan 31 2012:
- New filehosts were added, old ones were removed
- the user friendliness has been improved
- new smart way to detect websites that are dead
- ability to search on these new filehosts
- url structure is better now ;)

UPDATE 29th March 2012:
We have updated our linking code, please update it to avoid being blacklisted automatically in the near future, thanks!

Get the code here


Peace,
Whoo

PSS: Everyone that needs to contact the Twilight.ws team should do this via the contact form on the website. This way we can handle every request in an organised and effective way.

I will not be replying to any Twilight.ws related PM's as we do not provide our support here on WJ.

No it isn't, over the last few days we are testing a small change in the approval of submissions.

Yes, we did a major update yesterday:

- New filehosts were added, old ones were removed
- the user friendliness has been improved
- new smart way to detect websites that are dead
- ability to search on these new filehosts
- url structure is better now ;)
 
Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Since the closure of many file hosts we are giving it some time before we will adjust the rating requirements.

We still have a lot of new features written down which can be added in the future depending on the demand of our visitors.

Twilight.ws is and always has been a DDL site that want to evolve overtime so keep your eyes open for the things that are coming up.

yesterday 170 points today 50 ...??

b.n.m.

Yesterday we have removed some file hosts, we currently aren't demoting any websites when they do not have enough points.

Its possible that there will be a slight modification in the point system that will inly take the aubmissions from the last x months into consideration. This hasn't been implemenred yet but we are looking into it since it will surely allow webmasters to increase their points more easily.

Eg if you made 1000 submissions with only 1 bronze host it would be harder to gain points to reach a certain required minimum for a new rating while with the new system this would be easier.

Points dropped because they removed fileserve & filesonic from rating criteria but that doesn't mean we have so less point .. i hope twilight will make some adjustments regarding that also .... as we were above on points & thats why we achieved Like 5* rating !
 
As of now some /all big hosts are down please add small hosts in yur lists.

Please add 10upload.com in your list . Waiting for your reply.

Sorry i didn't able to find any official thread of twilight so i am posting it here .

If it's not allowed notify me

Thanks
 
We are currently in a period of evaluating which filehosts are the most popular ones for the downloaders. Once we gain enough information we will update the rules.
