The email scrape routine, will only find emails IF the user has added their email to their PROFILE BIO. Not many do this (as it can attract spam ;-)

So you will not expect to get the full emails from all users. If users are not displaying their email, you cannot access it.

As you are scraping the same 12 emails every time, that would sugget only 12 users of your list are publicly displaying the email

Sorry I do not understand your question.

The SCM routine pulls the profile (eg URL http://soundcloud.com/ninja-warrior). It then tries to find an email ANYWHERE on the page. If found it is noted, if not, ignored.

Oh yes, my mistake I use similar words interchangeably with the hope that some of the time I use the right one.

Bio / description / user info
Likes / favs / favourites

etc etc
