Sometimes while focusing on a movie, the "next movie" bar do not start at all, and when it became the current movie, continue to not start, even after many refresh. The only clean way to skip to evaluate this "empty" movie is a logoff/logon.
If you hit the 'back' button to reload the last movie you evaluated (useful to re-examine a missed CM) you will get a different 'next movie', which should let you skip the one that didn't load.
I'm having problems with the CMs like everyone else, tho. My problem (an example is 7458240V1) is with CM tracks that start well below the surface. Sometimes these are obvious CMs (like the 'classic' Phase I tracks that we've learned to recognize) and sometimes they look, to me at least, like inclusions.
For instance, in the CM gave the number to the 'track' doesn't show any in-focus features until about 5 frames below the surface, and is only in-focus for a couple of frames before blurring back out. All that I see between this 'track' and the surface is what looks to me like faint diffraction features, and no entry path. I actually looked at this feature very carefully before clicking on No Track, and was /very/ surprised that this was a CM.
Honestly, this is exactly the kind of feature that I was clicking on when I started in Phase I, seeing almost /no/ agreements, and then seeing described as an inclusion.
I'm also seeing CMs with the surface near the top, and then a huge 'classic' CM track buried what seems almost ridiculously far into the gel with nothing between it and the surface.
I guess my question is, are we now supposed to click on /any/ apparent void-like structure beneath the surface of the gel, whether we think it looks like a track or not, or what? It is /very/ frustrating to evaluate a movie, decide that a feature is /not/ a track, and then be counted incorrect on a CM. OTOH, the only time I have been counted wrong for clicking on a track so far was on a movie that I actually thought was a CM before clicking, and didn't think the object was a track, but thought it looked like what I had been counted wrong for NOT clicking on.
It's not that I'm only of those people obsessed with my score. I've had enough scientific training to understand the point of what the Stardust team is trying to accomplish, and think I understand what the problem with the Phase I CMs was (not a wide enough Bell curve, basically). My problem is that some of the new CMs look to me like features that were described in Phase I as inclusions that we were /not/ to click on.
