Way to go, Alex! This plan is a win-win and sure to alleviate the surge while also allowing user submitted content to find a niche here. Now, where's my YouTube bookmark? I've got some submitting to do! (i keed, i keed.) :P
Again, I must agree and say, "What happened to the magic number?" It seems that anything that gets over 1 vote gets through. Now, if I'm not mistaken, one vote compared to 15 is a huge difference, statistically speaking. And Alex said the voting would determine what goes to the front page starting in February.
It should be a magic number, and it should probably be less than 15 to make it reasonable. Maybe 9...number 9...number 9...number 9...
Yeah. Whatever it takes to thin out the herd, I guess. The guys charging the 2 bucks will eventually get fired, but the people that pay are way too stupid to be allowed to survive and procreate.

And here's one that started off as "Prying Open An Old Cookie Jar" that I found as "Two Boy Clams Meet A Girl Clam" and ended up in Pac Man glory.

Also, didn't Winston Churchill make up the word "Queuetopia" to describe communist countries that had to line up to buy things? Just a thought.

I'd love to see the insides of some of these.
