Feel free to ask me anything!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.comBlogger17125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-87203083261381798992011-04-02T17:29:00.000-07:002011-04-02T17:29:02.876-07:00Ask to be Guru, Without asking to be guru!Now you're probably confused by the title but I'll make it as simple as possible, If you have already Asked to be guru by clicking the tip, then you come across something else you want to be guru of, you won't be able to click the tip again but you can still ask! just go to the search bar and search "guru" there will be multiple results, but the one you want is the picture of a monk with a laptop (quite amusing actually) and ask! remember to include a link to help them access it easier, you can access the guru topic page here: <a href="http://getglue.com/topics/p/guru?source=http%3A%2F%2Fgetglue.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dguru">http://getglue.com/topics/p/guru?source=http%3A%2F%2Fgetglue.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dguru</a>, good luck! make sure you write a good review, or else you won't get the much needed votes!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-6607528692407954662011-03-26T13:00:00.000-07:002011-03-26T13:00:01.382-07:00Search Item Only!So you're gliding along liking alot of items, building up you counter, and you want some more, make sure to get into all the nuts and crannies of GetGlue by looking everywhere there really is alot of stuff on this website, you could be the first to discover them!<br />
<br />
So you search an item, for example "Avatar", you will get ALOT of results, but you only want to search for films by the name Avatar, so look through the films and at the bottom on the Movies Category you will see 'Search Movies Only' when you click on that you will see the same results as before you may also discover some MORE Movies that weren't originally on the other search page, this may give you the opportunity to become guru (unless someone else has Searched Movies Only)... But make sure you know about that film, do some research, find and watch it online if you really want!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-66979520307372532852011-03-24T09:42:00.000-07:002011-03-24T09:42:20.230-07:00Hidden Help!This was suggested by eduble! So your cruising along, liking a few of your friends topics, movies, books etc. and you come across a movie that looks interesting, and you want to be guru of it! well if you hover over the top right hand corner of the image of the film then you will notice a cog sign, seconds later and a pop-up will appear, this is a very informative pop-up and will give you the following: Links to sites such as Images, related videos and you can even share the information with other social-networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter... The pop-up will even give you the amount of users that have visited the site, if its alot, then your gonna want to write a decent review, but if its around 10-20 you can easily become guru! but still write a decent review, maybe make use of those links and find out a little more about the particular topic, film or book etc that you can later add to the review!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-13979290822807982192011-03-23T10:02:00.000-07:002011-03-23T10:02:46.648-07:00Follow Worthy!Sometimes you will come across people who you will follow but not get followed back, a good way to get noticed and hopefully get them to follow you is to vote for them on such things like reviews and vote on their check-ins and comments often, sometimes they will need only one vote to become the guru of that particular item and you can be there to give them that precious vote!<br />
<br />
But be warned some people will be arrogant enough to never follow you back, if so, give up, vote for other users reviews, maybe THEY will follow you for voting them to be guru, this can also link to your friends also voting for that review, something i like to call payback!<br />
<br />
WARNING: There are some sneaky annoying people that will follow you, wait for you to follow them and then un-follow you! "WHAT?!" I hear you say? yes people are actually desperate enough to do it, and if you are reading this and do this, please stop, its pointless. There is really no way of detecting this because GetGlue hasn't yet thought of adding it to the site, so for now I would just look through your following and followers and look to see if you are missing some followers that you follow, this does not apply to people who dont follow people who follow them?<br />
<br />
I am aware that some of this is hard to understand so just message me if you want me to re-word it!Scotty

Once you have around 30-50 guru's (including some popular topics, films, books etc) then then you will most likely have a few friends, Guru Trading is an excellent way of getting guru's off your friends while giving them a guru in return! Say your friend was the guru of Avatar (the most popular film on GG) and you want it, all you do is negotiate your way to the current guru accepting your offer (sometimes it may take 2 or 3 guru's for them to want to part with the item!) and when you have reviewed it simply Ask to become guru (if you dont know how just go <a href="http://getgluehowto.blogspot.com/2011/03/want-to-be-guru-ask-friends-to-vote.html" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">here</a>) but notify your other friends before hand, if you cant get enough votes, spark up a conversation and check-in to allow your friends to vote!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-70296356860158136902011-03-14T11:04:00.000-07:002011-03-22T11:20:27.148-07:00Want To Be Guru? Ask Friends to Vote!Here is a little guide for all the users that are currently stuck on asking friends to vote for them so that they can be guru!<br />
<br />
1. Write a great review, maybe a paragraph or two (remember that the max. words allowed is 1000)<br />
2. Remember to like the item you are reviewing, you will never be guru unless you like it!<br />
3 Go to the 'Top Rated' tab next to the 'Following' tab, a little thing i am used to doing is counting how many votes the current guru has, if its 100 votes and you only have 40 followers, I would wait a while before you can ask!<br />
4. Click on the following: <b><i><u>Tip: Want to be the Guru? Ask Friends To Vote</u></i></b> -- this is located underneath the current guru's review.<br />
5. Finally, add a comment if you wish and ask people from Facebook and Twitter by ticking the boxes underneath your message and then Submit!<br />
<br />
WARNING: The <u style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Tip: Want to be the Guru? Ask Friends To Vote </u>message will only pop up every 24 hours so use it wisely, if the current guru has 100 votes, use it, if it has a measly 10 votes just send your friends a quick message on one of their check-ins!<br />
<br />
Also, a good tip is too read the guru's review, this is essential, firstly you may learn something and want to put it in your own review (make sure its in your own words though), Also if you dont think you can match a review like theirs then wait while, take some time to practice reviewing and learn to use some sophisticated words (long cool sounding words that are relevant to the topic, song, movie etc.)Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-2575219720584245242011-03-14T10:33:00.000-07:002011-03-14T10:33:37.366-07:00To Be Private Or Not To Be Private!Privacy is everything nowadays , but sometimes it can affect your follower count, you see nowadays people may be too lazy to request a friendship on GetGlue and normally don't bother. But requesting IS a good thing because you get a follower! simple, but if you wont to keep your following count down you will not want to request! and hope that they notice and follow you without wanting a follow back! But there can be bad things about Private Profiles, for instance, you may find a review by them and it may be a plagiarist review and it may be a one off but you will never be too sure, which means you cannot report because frankly, you have no evidence, unless the GG team can bypass Private Profiles, there is not much you can do!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-48164938435295983802011-03-12T04:49:00.000-08:002011-03-12T09:36:14.259-08:00Pointers & Tips!Quick Check!<br />
Quick Check is a really easy way too bump up that Check-in counter, firstly go to a popular item ie Twilight (book), check-in to it, then under the description there will be links to other things that are similar to Twilight, click on the first one and check-in to that, then a few more links will appear, click on one and keep doing that until, well when you get bored or there aren't any links, in that case go back to the start and do it again and click different links!<br />
<br />
Liking It!<br />
At times you might have nothing left to do because you have been liking stuff 24/7! but you can go even further! just go to the Public Stream and like stuff that other people have liked! if your REALLY new you will most definitely get the Fist Bump sticker, other than that you will get a higher Like count!<br />
<br />
Comment That Check!<br />
So you've mastered the check-ins? or have you? did you ever notice that when you check-in with a comment you not only bump up that check-in count but you also bump up the Review count! yes, when you check-in with a comment like 'check' or 'c' you bump up the review count, i noticed this after around 700 check-ins! so if you do it from you first check-in you may have around 6000 check-ins and 6,000 reviews, cool, huh?<br />
<br />
Favorite your Guru's!<br />
Favoriting your guru's can be a big help, if you have 34 guru's and 36 favorites it means someone out there in the community has stole your guru's! People stealing your guru's will become more frequent when you have more guru's, but it will get harder finding which one you have lost once your past 70-100 as you will need to go through each list which may take a long time!<br />
<br />
Start your Guru'ing engines!<br />
Guru's give both respect and notices, so if your new, start with unpopular items, if you visit an item and it has 1 Visit, 1 Like, 0 Check-in that gives you a chance to become guru without needing votes! just write the review and you have it! this is a common choice amongst users so go out there and claim yours!<br />

USE IT! get the app, go to 'Upcoming' and look at the films that are set to be big! go to the bottom and look at the name of the film, THEN go to GetGlue and search the name, there is a high chance that this has not been discovered by other users! write your review and get some votes, THEN when its released and there is a sticker for it, you will be noticed, but only if your guru of most upcoming films as people will remember you and to make sure you are remembered, WRITE A GOOD REVIEW! and even secure it by checking in with a comment so people can either find it funny, agree with it or find it useful!<br />
<br />
GetGlue Add-on!<br />
I urge you to get this add-on with Mozilla Firefox, purely because most of the time it doesn't show up on Google Chrome. If you are visiting some of GG supported websites this may show up, if you go to a particular topic it may show up and have no visits, likes, check-ins giving you a shiny opportunity to review and Guru!<br />
<br />
So there you go, some lessons i learned while venturing into GG and its wonderful world of Entertainment!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-54349023824775397372011-03-11T15:23:00.000-08:002011-03-11T15:23:26.181-08:00Leading the Boards!Do you dream of hitting the high notes of a particular thing, ie Topics, Movies, Video Games? Well its really easy! At first it may seem it but you could be first in seconds!<br />
<br />
Remember that little link shouting out to you: Quick Rate.<br />
Quick Rate will purely elevate your score but not to the top 50 - liking a particular item will only get you +2 points, where as checking-in WITH A COMMENT will get you +7 points!<br />
here is the points score to help you out:<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #373737; font-family: arial; font-size: 16px;"><span class="refreshMessage center" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #464646; display: block; font-family: inherit; font-size: 10px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 15px; margin-right: 15px; margin-top: 15px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">Points System: Like/Check-in: +2, Save/Dislike: +2, Reply = +3, Review/Comment = +5</span></span><br />
<div>If you are going for the guru title for that thing then it would be wise to reply to posts more often because while you get +3 points for the leaderboards, it also vgives your friends the opportunity to vote for your replies!</div>Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-28166959764809842982011-03-10T23:52:00.000-08:002011-03-10T23:52:44.170-08:00Your Check-ins are on Fire!By now your getting a few stickers and maybe a few followers, but check-ins are important aswell, people can see that you are Quick Fire Checking, this can get you hidden stickers like Cylon, Drama Queen, Hopeless Romantic and others (just go to Check-in Stickers under the All Stickers Tab).The more check-ins you have the more you will be noticed by others, and it will most definitely get you climbing those leaderboards, if you check-ins to a particular item, ie Movies, you will climb the leaderboard for both Movie Buff and Top User! But remember that your total count of check-ins FOR THAT DAY will reset for the next day so check-in constantly because i dont know about you but - ******** checked in to 400 things - looks good!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-37559862341343222162011-03-10T14:44:00.000-08:002011-03-10T15:24:51.302-08:00More Following? Less Following?Are you going to take the gamble and follow LOTS of users and hope you get lots in return? or will you let fate decide and wait till people notice you and follow you?<br />
This may help you decide (number taken 10/03/2011):<br />
Dexter99 - Following: 28445 users - Followers: 3033 - now that amount of followers means a WHOLE LOT OF VOTES if you ever want to be guru but your stream may get very busy and you will have alot of messages of people wanting to be guru all the time!<br />
<br />
Sabrina (brinavee) - Following: 66 - Followers: 1107 - a little less than Dexter but all the same alot of followers! your messages are less clogged up and the stream is clean! BUT these people with lots of followers but little following have a very high respect on GetGlue and it takes a longer period of time to get those wanted followers.<br />
<br />
so whats your choice, let the followers build up over time or follow everything with a pulse?Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-17413448351019592212011-03-10T09:27:00.000-08:002011-03-10T09:27:42.089-08:00Follow That Crowd!Some users will know alot about stickers and will know when to get them and where to get them, it is healthy to follow the crowd on GetGlue, whether its checking-into an X amount of items or liking a few pages do what they are doing! here are a few people who know what they are doing when it come to stickers!!<br />
1. Fidel Jiron (Dragyn76)<br />
2. Matt Nelson (nellymatt66)<br />
3. moviechick23<br />
it is essential you follow these people for the best sticker start possible!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-58058496385072559912011-03-09T23:54:00.000-08:002011-03-09T23:54:27.391-08:00Glued To The Stickers!Stickers are a great way too get noticed by other users - i suggest going to here: Sticker Tab > All Stickers > Check-in Stickers. here you can find some really easy stickers to acquire (although some may take longer to get, i would still go for them!) - READ THE DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY. Sometimes you may miss out words while reading the description, check-in to the item and not get the sticker! Search it in the search box, find it, like it, check-into it! Sometimes it may require a word or a phrase, scroll down to see other users posts if the words are repeating in the posts - copy and paste it! or if you know the phrase already then check-in with that phrase! But remember they have to be word for word! If you see the word 'Fan' in a particular sticker it requires you to check-in to that item 5 times, if it says superfan - check-in 15 times!!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-17133811539498104822011-03-09T14:52:00.000-08:002011-03-10T13:59:37.946-08:00A few Recommendations!Here are a few people i definitely recommend to you so you can get the best start possible!<br />

1. Dont be a plagiarist, not a popular path and doesn't mix well with good reviewers!! FYI a plagiarist is a user who writes a crummy review maybe a word or a line, or they even copy the description, AGAIN NOT POPULAR.<br />
2. To review, go to the page you want, like it, click on the 'Review This' tab next to the 'Check-in' tab... review it and then submit!<br />
<u>Not Getting the Votes You Need? </u><br />
1. Before reviewing, i would follow a few people, take a look at how much people they are following, if they are following more people than are following them, they are the people who will follow you back! this is essential to getting the votes you need!<br />
2. Tip: Want to be guru: Ask friends to vote! - this will appear when you have written your fantabulous review, if it hasn't, refresh the page! - But it will only appear every 24 hours upon using it, so pick what you need to be guru of wisely!Scotty Greenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01219258670380747697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7468362843602852143.post-73367285392846515012011-03-09T12:45:00.000-08:002011-03-09T12:45:59.623-08:00Look At You Go!<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Now I have a few tips for you:</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">1.
