Congrats on undermining both of these people with one efficient title. The woman is reduced to a "cute girl" and the man is ignored.


The world is ending. Find cover.

Tell me, is it possible to be any more oversensitive?

>> ^Seric:
Really nice voice, pity it seems they didn't change the audio track to mono/turn that stereo mic 90 degrees.


Come on, don't you like left channel only music?

Well, to be honest, the guy looks like he's texting on the biggest Blackberry I've ever seen.

I swear this is the last time I upvote a ukelele. Not that any cares of course.

Your video, Cute girl does a wonderful cover of 'Take on Me' on Ukelele, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

And it's s still #1: http://www.videosift.com/video/The-most-amazing-ukelele-playing-you-will-ever-see-Jake-Shimabukuro

Let's amass a campaign to overtake it!

It happened as part of the 4.0 upgrade. The URL you posted now redirects to lemonparty, but that site is experiencing exceptionally high traffic due to an unexpected surge in people googling 'lemon ukelele assplay'.

Try again later if you still need that scratch itched.

yeah. go to front/top sifts...

then, on the right side of the screen, you can select date range and change it to all time.

heh... ukeleles.

I've stayed quiet on this subject, waiting for this poll to come up. My observations about the 15-vote experiment:

- One good thing about it: Users are more likely to scan the field of Unsifted videos.

- With 4.0, star levels have been raised. If the 15-vote rule were to stay, it would make it even more difficult to achieve higher star levels, needing to get 25 videos sifted with 15+ votes.

- Not only that, but if the 15-vote rule were to stay, there would be many more videos sticking around in the Unsifted section. The further your video gets buried over time, the less likely you are to get additional votes. Casual users do not explore that far...

- In which case, if we are going to keep the 15-vote rule, you might as well do away with the "Hotness" factor (which I would banish anyway, but that's another story), considering any videos that get 15 votes within 24 hours would be on that list to begin with.

- Quality is subjective. We all know that. Considering that, if the 15-vote rule were kept in place, members will be more likely to use their Power Points for selfish begs, self-promotes, general brown-nosing, etc. Or misanthropists like me will have to pretend to be friendlier and likable in order to get more votes from people we don't really care about.

- People like me will stop wasting their time posting videos. I know you probably couldn't care less, but there are others out there like me (Mr. Fisk, mintbbb, Farhad) and I know you don't want to give QM more material to work with, you elitist scum.

I could easily use my time browsing for the latest TDS/Colbert/Bill Maher/News/Zero Punctuation/Break/The Hot New Thing On Any Stupid Site/Whatever, or spend my time looking up "cat" or "ukelele" or "baby" or "fat Christian redneck" or "funny animal unexpectedly interacting with another cute species" on YouTube... but that's not my thing. Everyone has their niche, and I'd rather leave those things to other people.

About one-third of the videos I've sifted are between 10-14 votes. While a 15-vote rule wouldn't stop me from submitting my random music (if only to annoy those quality-hawks), it would take the fun out of it.

It's pretty obvious at this point where the vote is going to go, but I wanted to say my peace.

This video has been declared a duplicate; transferring votes to the original video and killing this dupe - dupeof declared by kronosposeidon.

^Why don't you make an *easyvotes channel, where people could put videos of pets, babies , Ron Paul, Keith Olbermann, Richard Dawkins and ukelele videos?
