thanks for the vote and promote =D

thank you, I just want to be clear on how certain things go around here, I try to avoid submitting dupes as much as I can, and I don't want to call out other dupes if they are in fact not dupes. Like I said, I've been trying to get that video sifted for a couple weeks and then you promoted that one and I saw the submit date on it as being only a day or two old, and got pretty confused, hehe. All is good though, happy sifting, and thanks for the replies!

That's exactly right, videos that didn't get enough votes would roll to 'discard', and could only be resurrected with the 'save' invocation. I'm gonna let this whole thing drop, since you're only one point from being bronzed, and you are cool.

yeah I know what you mean, there seems to be a redundancy between PQ and discarded videos. From my understanding of how it goes now, discard is meant to remove the video from submission and any possibility of it being resurected by another member, kind of like a private PQ, (which is why I would suspect they don't show up in searches or the dupe checks) and the PQ is like the holding area for videos that couldn't get votes fast enough, but still are attempting to be sifted. I'm wondering if there should be a siftbot command that a submitter can use to transfer their discarded videos to their PQ (is there one?).

I have no doubt that you are, for submitting Fintroll in the first place. I'm pretty confused about the whole business, because the "discard" pile used to be what the "pq" is now, so some people have some really cool stuff in there that I like to promote. Gets me in trouble more often than not.

Discards don't show up in the search or the dupe check from what I have seen, so what is there to prevent those videos from being submitted over and over? I try to thoroughly search before I submit and nothing Finntroll related came up. I don't care which post is discarded I just wanted that video sifted because it deserves it and I've been putting it through beggar's canyon a few times.

(P.S. i'm pretty cool, too)

This one was submitted first, and is sifted. Protocol would be that yours is to be discarded.
