Congrats on the Bronze; well done!

what kymbos said - hiphop can be a tough sell around here.
I've got a playlist you're welcome to contribute to - just let me know & I'll send you an invite.

I keep bugging you about the * quality thing, but...

One acknowledged, and another attempted, * quality invocation, both made in the last 12 hours. I checked; the vid's not on any of the 3 'hotness' pages at the moment and really deserves some prominence & additional votes.

hey lucky - a colour bug?

That's good info. Thanks for letting me know. With the last change I made it will last a bit longer.

Recommendations are completely a separate thing, which is good. Videos that just get popular shouldn't have any bearing on what you might like to watch, so recommendations are solely based on what people with the most similar interests have been voting on.

Thanks a lot!

Lucky,
I did the invocation around 4pm local yesterday; I checked VS at maybe 9pm or so & didn't see that vid on the front page. I didn't dig deeper looking for it; I simply wanted to see if it was still super-prominently placed.



Do vids that get *quality have a higher chance of ending up on a Recommended page, or are they entirely separate things?

Again - great job on all this. Keep it up - we rabble truly appreciate it.

Hi SP-

Just wondering if you happened to notice how long the video stayed high up in the hotness listing.

I made another adjustment to make sure they'll stay even longer.

Yup - seems to have made a significant change to this one about doing stuff; top of the Hotness listing.

Will be interested to see how long it floats for....

Nice job with the upgrade. My recommended list just got populated - FYI, there's a couple of killed vids in there.

Thanks for the *Q!!

Con! Nice work. When I see your three letter nick of pleasingly curved letters in front of sifts or comments, I always feel reassured that *quality is coming my way. Looking forward to your channel.

hey - just noticed the diamond! big congrats - what's your channel going to be?

dead indeed...but I can't retrieve the hulu code as a Canuck.
feel free to wait the two days if you want the power point
