Upcoming Videos - Default order

OK, I know I've brought this up before and nothing came of it but hear me out.

The default, when looking at Upcoming videos, (aka unsifted video), is set so they come up in the order of "Best votes-to-views ratio" every time I enter back to the Sift. We can select how these videos are listed, using tho drop down tool at the top right.

I think they should come up by default as "Newest Que Date." upon entering for my visit.

And here is why:
So, I Open the page and begin to watch and vote on the first page, I open two or three in new windows, watch them, vote, close them and then go back to the list for more. In the time I've voted on the past three, the page has reloaded and the videos are now in a different order. All of a sudden, I'm seeing videos at the bottom of the page that were previously at the top of the page.

To ad to this, every time I turn to the next page of videos, the order changes. Not only am I seeing the same video 4-5 times on different pages, but I'm also missing videos that are jumping around. This has got to be the most annoying thing I've experienced repeatedly on the Sift.

Now I know the obvious choice and solution is to just change my preference before viewing but I don't think I should have to reset this every time I'm here. I come back here several times per day to check the new postings and surprise-surprise, I forget to do it every time. Sometimes, yes, but not every time. I don't even realize it until I see the same video twice and go back searching for the "original" so I can dupe it, only to find out it was the same one that jumped around and has been on pages 1, 3 & 4. Bloody frustrating.

So is there a benefit to having "Best votes-to-views ratio" as the default setting?
I nominate ""Newest Que Date" as the new default.
