As a stats geek, I have an obsessive need to rank anything and everything possible, and Weird Al stuff is no exception. I toyed with the idea of doing a personal ranking of every Al video, but I figured, "Sigh, fine, other peoples' opinions have value too" and decided to set up a survey where everybody could rate each video on a scale of 1-10. This includes the 24 videos from The Ultimate Video Collection, the six animated videos from the Straight Outta Lynwood DualDisc, the 15 videos from Alpocalypse HD, and the eight Mandatory Fun videos.

The survey will be open for one week. You don't have to do it all at once; if you have cookies enabled, you can come back to it and/or change your answers. (At least, that's how I have it set--let me know if you run into any issues.) Then I'll do some ultra-dramatic reveal of the results.

Re: Ultimate Video Ranking Survey
It also tells me that i liked the 9os videos the most, even if my favorite songs are mostly the last 3 or 4 albums
