Shameless request for assistance
« on: October 09, 2011, 10:18:05 pm »
So I'm up for the Gameday Rivals "Bud Light Ultimate Tailgater" contest, which is judged by the number of views of each tailgater's video. If you have two minutes to kill, or just want to see me say stupid shit on camera, I would appreciate the views!

There is some sort of prize, which I can't remember, but I really just don't want to finish last.

Okay, so I'm on my 4th time as well (not watching per se, but am navigating back and forth to the page and playing it on a minimized window).  Don't mind continuing to do so... but... it still shows the same page views as the first 3 times I watched it.  If it is counting each of my successive views I'll keep doing this same ole' song and dance as I think about it through the day, but if not I'm gonna call it quits.  Anyone know how 'views' are tabulated, or what I need to do to make sure that each subsequent view is tabulated?

I have no idea... and I was wondering the same thing.

If it doesn't allow for a browser/system/etc to record more than one view then I have no idea how the leader is at 25K views.

Youtube has software attempting to detect such users and preventing the counter from increasing for them.  It's probably based off of your IP and/or cookies.  You won't be able to inflate the number yourself.

I just received a note from the organizers that Youtube doesn't update views in real time, so some of these may actually be counting. Doing some research on my own, it appears that they are very tight lipped about how the process works. Anyway, again I appreciate the assistance!
