Not really much of an accomplishment, but I feel special anyway: I made it into the top 100 users (by votes). Sitting pretty right now at 99. And well on my way to 50 videos and a gold star so that I can get my own collective started. It's the small things in life.

I count 219 stars at this point.
So, the top 100 is a rather active group.
There are some folks who've participated longer but maybe don't have as many videos published. Then of course dead videos have eaten away at sifters' totals.
So, you've got 19 to go before you're a goldie. 'Glad you're enthusiastic.

ehem...and I broke into the elite 15 this weekend.
And as long as we're patting ourselves on the back here, I would have almost 36 votes per vid, not including queued and Sift Talk posts.

We'll probably see this in VS3.
Moreover, there would be the very WRONG situation where a discarded video is better than a video who gets only 10 votes.
The votes/video value is nice, but definitly not as a primary ranking system.
It would also be very nice to have a (published videos/all videos posted) value (i.e. "Published ratio"). But this would bring a little problem: it would be bad to count videos discarded because they are dupes, in this value.
