It would be really nice to eliminate so many mediocre sifts clogging up the front page all the time.

Let's raise the queue limit to 20, shorten the queue time to 2 days, and set a maximum of one requeue allowed per week. That oughtta do it.

Oh, and the queue needs to go back to being sorted by submission date by default.

[EDIT] Seems I jumped the gun here by just a few hours!
