Hey Lucky,

Just noticed that this user (http://www.videosift.com/member/8496) is listed as a probie, but does have one sifted video with 38 votes.

Hey Lucky, there appears to be a problem merging the vote counts with the new siftbot xWhatever votes because of the siftpocalypse.

I just dupeof'ed this: http://www.videosift.com/video/Don-t-take-Wii-remote-to-the-bathroom?noredirect

And as you can see it has 30 siftbot votes and the new video that trumps it only transferred the one vote count of siftbot rather than the 30.

Guess you may want to fit in some kind of filtering for dupeof to check for a siftbot vote and to count each multiple to add that amount.

Fixed. Thanks!

Hey Lucky, I just wanted to report back on the fixing a dead link and the power point thing...

I tried an experiment. I had one power point, and I used it to beg one of my videos. So now with zero power points, I immediately fixed a dead video, and sifty gave me two power points.

It seems as though if I have zero, it will always give me two... but if I have more than one power point in my cache, it just gives me one.

Hey, it finally sifted! Thanks for your multiple promotes! I owe you.

Thanks for the promote! Unfortunately, no one else is biting on it.

Hulu and NBC are officially supported by the sift now as of 3.3, so you should be able to sift them.

In reply to this comment by Baera:
Yea, Hulu has it as well, but being a non-star member, I cannot use many embeds.. Oh well.

So just a quick addendum... I just spent my two power points on some *.begs, and now my power point recharge time reset itself back to 48 hours (before this it was counting down to an hour and change left). Anyway... I'll keep an eye on it.

In reply to this comment by lucky760:
That's what I was guessing (and hoping) but when you got the 2 points your countdown timer still showed 18 hours until your normal 1 point recharge.



Go figure.

No problem.

I'm wondering if it has something to do with my normal power point recharge. Reason why I mention that is I noticed that this happened before with me, but I just chalked it up to me not paying attention, but when it came around for my regular power point to be recharged, I did not receive that power point.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is, is it giving me the power point for fixing the video and my regular power point earlier than it should?

Hi stingray-

Thanks a lot for reporting this. No one else has. I failed to locate the source of the problem after extensive digging, so if it ever happens again, please inform me.

For helping out you can keep your ill-gotten Power Point.

Thanks.

Hey lucky, just thought I'd mention this...

I fixed a dead video (http://www.videosift.com/video/Lazy-Sunday-Saturday-Night-Live), and it says awarding one point, but I had 0 power points before I fixed it, and now I have two. Not that I'm complaining mind you...
