There are many quality vids that had to be begged for or promoted numerous times before they sifted. I think it would be better if the PQ couldn't have more videos than 15-20 at a time.

2 examples of great vids that took a long time to sift:
http://www.videosift.com/video/Adriana-Calcanhoto-Fico-Assim-Sem-Voc - had to be begged for 4 times
http://www.videosift.com/video/Joe-Strummer-Redemption-Song - had to be begged for 3 times

There are many more examples out there.
