I will see how this works for you. i do not have videos up, but I always seem to do well when I view other people's videos.

I have 16 pages of videos, just let me know. I have 313 points now.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 2:03pm UTC

All done!

Nana to Seven Cutiepies Jan 7, 2012, 2:48pm UTC

324 points

Nana to Seven Cutiepies Jan 7, 2012, 2:54pm UTC

you viewed 18 videos,

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 3:15pm UTC

I viewed a couple more but it seemed I had already viewed the previously so I couldn't recommend them again lol.

Nana to Seven Cutiepies Jan 7, 2012, 3:59pm UTC

Thanks so much. I just counted to see how the point ratio came out.

Sounds like a good idea to try, I have a few if you want to look at them.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 2:06pm UTC

Done!

Ann L. Jan 7, 2012, 3:06pm UTC

I gained 9 points.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 3:15pm UTC

Not bad!

Ann L. Jan 7, 2012, 3:20pm UTC

It is for me, I've had days when I didn't get that many no matter what I do.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 3:26pm UTC

Haha well glad I could help!

Interesting experiment - there are quite a few video clips on The Surreal Circus group - good luck with the project :-))

trying to crack the gather system, hopeless!

although i do believe that views on your own videos seem to be the best way to earn points. but i have no facts to back that up...just what i have observed.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 1:53pm UTC

Yeah, I know, but a lot of people claim more points with videos. Both viewing them and posting them so I am just curious if I can notice the difference.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 2:14pm UTC

P.S. I went though a page of yours. And holy crap 38 pages worth!

That's 760 videos...

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 1:53pm UTC

DO IT!!!

Well I just got my first points update since I started viewing. 66 to 78 so 12 points so far. but I am going to allow one more update before I conclude since I was still viewing when it updated.

Also, since this has to be in a limited amount of time for the experiment to be as close to accurate as possible, I will not be guaranteeing views for anyone else who comments. However, if it proves to do me well there is a great chance I will view them after the experiment is done.

I have tons of videos, if you care to see them I currently have 455 points.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 2:23pm UTC

Aw man you just missed the cut off for the experiment! But I will definitely view a bunch once my next points update goes through. You have always viewed pretty much everything I posted so I owe ya!

Diane Huizenga Jan 7, 2012, 2:34pm UTC

Thanks Justin

i have 17 pages of videos. whenever someone views them, my points go sky high.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 2:47pm UTC

I will get to them soon!

Kim B. Jan 7, 2012, 2:51pm UTC

you don't have to do that, really. i was just saying... btw! keep an eye on your points this hour and next,lol. this hour is almost up, usually takes two when you start viewing at this point in the hour. :)

Kim B. Jan 7, 2012, 4:19pm UTC

viewed all your videos around 3 this evening. hope it helped you.

Justin Reid Jan 7, 2012, 4:24pm UTC

Thank you!!!!

Newest update... 132... So starting at 66 that means I got 66 points. Now this may be skewed a bit because I did get return views. But if you think about it that is how it would go normally. You view someones videos so they return the favor. So obviously this method definitely works!

I don't have videos but I rarely videos either. Maybe I should start watching more if it does help the points. Thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for posting to Point Taken. Have a great night!

I have a bunch of videos. I tried to do an experiment like this several times, but with the amount of posts that I have here it's impossible for me to tell. I just view and comment like mad and hope it works! :)

No videos, just lots of pics. Did you by any chance determine if photos are worth more points then posts?
I bet they change points formula every so often anyway.
