So I saw that I had my brand new shiny bronze star and I decided to take a plunge into the dead pool to see if I could resurrect a sift. I saw this one:
http://www.videosift.com/video/Al-Gore-and-Ross-Perot-debate-NAFTA-in-1993
and thought it looked interesting.
I found the video on youtube here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhwhMXOxHTg
but embedding was disabled. I thought I would be clever and make a publicly available playlist of all the parts and then embed that. Turns out, I'm not that bright. SiftBot accepted it and gave me a star point but the embed doesn't work.
Now I'm looking for someone to take my point away and let me leave quietly in shame.
edit: hmm it looks like MycroftHomlz posted an embed code in that thread also. Maybe that one works.

lol - thanks!
People get star points for submitting dupes that make it out of the queue, which upsets me a lot more than your honesty.
Isn't the starpoint taken back when a post is discarded?
At least I was able to be Bronze then Silver then Bronze only to become silver again when I got another star point.
Yes, and all the votes that contribute to your rank, if you care about such things as rank. I slipped something like eight slots when I discarded a video for aesthetic reasons.
