A way to honour Younger Sifters (Blog Entry by Fedquip)

randomize, there have been plenty of weeks that I have not had a top 15 video.

Fedquip, perhaps there could be a list of most active users - I'm thinking along the lines of what the financial pages lists as the most actively traded stocks for that week. This would hopefully recognize the sifters that are rising fast among the ranks because of a high quantity of vote-getting-sifts.

The top 15 sifters will change. Some videos are not replaceable when they die. Some sifters will have other activities that will take a higher priority.

Also, the top 15 sifter ranking is by votes. When I joined VS in 2006 it only took 4 votes for a video to graduate from the queue. There are lot more sifters voting now. If a sifter sifts a lot videos that earn 100 votes each, that sifter will rise fast.

Perhaps too much emphasis is being placed on rank.

Human Crane Game

In looking a the comments on the YouTube page for this video, I see a comment by a DanielAdoff that is thanking a commentor for a complement. I would assume that DanielAdoff (YouTube screen name) = Dadoff (VideoSift screen name)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwE2TXkGuIU

DanielAdoff has no videos on his YouTube page:

http://www.youtube.com/user/DanielAdoff

The channel this video comes from has the following description of its ensemble comic group:

"Set in San Luis Obispo, California, a group of friends met in high school and instantly hit their comedic puberty with their satiric, yet profound movies dealing with such teenage problems as betrayal, murder, justice, time machines, the women who boldly love them, and the demons that dwell within their very own souls. Get ready to laugh...maybe."

http://www.youtube.com/Improvtopia

I'll let the rest of you continue the sleuthing. It's late . . . %)

Channel Roll Call (Sift Talk Post)

I looked at the FAQ and didn't see much about duties of a channel manager. Here are some possible suggested duties of a channel manager:

• Make sure videos belong on that channel
• Keep an eye on threads pertaining to that channel and make sure they are topic related
• Try to be supportive of videos assigned to that channel
• Encourage interaction among those sifters who frequent that channel
