I've posted Episode 11 "Static Charge Match" to Videosift
http://www.videosift.com/video/Scam-School-Static-Charge-Match
I chose it because it's not only the episode that convinced me to audit Brian Brushwood's class (I can't really consider myself a student since I don't go to bars) but it's also got a fantastic opening, and hilarious outtakes.

For those who aren't familiar with VideoSift, it's a little like Digg (I think) but just for videos. It takes 10 votes to get a video onto the front page of Videosift. Hopefully at least 9 other people will agree with me that Scam School deserves more attention.

Hey figmentPez - thanks for posting us on this Video site. While I want to encourage voting for us, Just wanted to let you and everyone else know what I ran into while registering and voting.

You are a "probationary member" and once I signed up, I am became one too. According to Videosift, I cannot vote for probationary members while on probation. I'm guessing when you sign up, everyone is on "probation". I foresee a little bit of frustration amongst the SS crowd.

Hopefully, I can vote sooner than later.

Doh! I fogot about that little caveat. I'm pretty sure probation isn't a time limit either, and you have to get a video published to get off of probation.

Well, hopefully one of my other videos (http://www.videosift.com/video/Bobby-McFerrin-does-a-one-man-Wizard-of-Oz) will get the two more votes needed to get me off of probation, so that I can be freely voted for.

Well, hopefully I didn't shoot myself in the foot by putting the cart before the horse. So now I'll risk putting my foot in my mouth again in hopes of turning this sow's ear into a silk purse...

Okay, enough mixing metaphors. I got a different video through the sift and now Scam School fans can freely voice any approval they have for my submission. Have at it folks!
