dystopianfuturetodaysays...^Not today.
dystopianfuturetodaysays...I agree, this is a flawed but fun (and funny) game.
dannym3141says...Worth public downvoting to make the statement!
dystopianfuturetodaysays...^I was just kidding.
dannym3141says...Curses!
Farhad2000says...Zero Punctuation needs a better video embed because it sometimes fail to work totally on 2 separate machines (at least for me).

gwiz665says..... you're not zifnab... this skews my whole perception of the sift.

Dignant_Pinksays...upvote for the dragonball z reference.
bamdrewsays...Earthbound, wooo!
jwraysays...is there a Wii emulator for PC?
mauz15says...If I wanted to watch all the Daily Show videos, I simply go to their website. Same train of thought here; if I wanted to watch every single video of Zero punctuation I go to their site.
37 videosift posts of Zero punctuation is a bore.

So we should stop sifting videos that are part of an ongoing series, regardless of quality? The point of VS is to collect all the best videos the net has to offer into one place. If Yahtzee's reviews become LESS THAN quality, I'll stop voting for them, but in the mean time they should be in video hall of fame called VideoSift, IMO.

Thing is, there comes a point where it becomes not posting for quality but posting because of the ongoing wave of posts, regardless of the quality of them. And then it's not only the good Zero punctuation videos being posted but every single one of them. Or are you seriously telling me all 37 videos are of quality? this one was average in my opinion.
I've seen this too many times already with the daily show videos, the TED talks, the Scientology videos, I could go on.
10371says...Upvote for the demon kitten.
Majortomyorkesays...Upvote for the Muse song at the end.

Are you then saying that people are posting just for the sake of posting something they know will do well?
Check the amount of probationary members with non-promoted posts vs. the amount of probationary members with promoted videos.. (ie. someone without any stars by their name)
A lot of the videos that get on to the sift, imo, get there because of who posted them, not what they contain.
Prime example is of the "improv everywhere" videos which, when i was probationary, i couldn't get sifted. I gave up, 3 weeks later there were 3 on and one was in the "most popular" list.
