Same here. If it weren't for this thread, I'd have never found out about it.

Could we have it on the memberpage too, perhaps? I'm always logged in so I kinda miss out on this :P

it's kinda intended for visitors who don't yet have an account, to attract them to the website.
if you already have an account, you can just go to the top star scale and click on whatever videos you want.

I keep seeing the same 4 or 5 videos come by every time I visit the page. Wouldn't it be neat if we can also add recently uploaded videos into the play list? That way along side the "awesome" video's we'll also have some fresh stuff. Basically saying "your video could be here ;D" etc.

If the purpose of this is to put the site's best foot forward, it'd be kinda hard efficiently sift through recent videos and make sure they're good. They won't have been around long enough for the star ratings to be in any way meaningful, only a couple recent vids would have OPs of any kind, and IMO hit number don't have enough of a correlation with quality to work.

The current method doesn't ensure that either. Get a dozen people to give a 5 to an unannounced video from someone nobody knows and it'll be on that list the next week.

Hrm, I guess for some reason I assumed it would be weighted in favor of videos with a high number of ratings. Never mind then.
