What's happening here? And even the comment is odd, just a link to my own image.

That happens when you inadvertently drag the vote number to the comment field. Happened to me too, not noticing it, and then voting.

I wouldn't have guessed, but I submitted a bottom feeder:

A drastic drop
04/01/2013 10:22:51 PM · #13
is this thread talking about the FS challenge? If so may I join Neil in the bottom feeder group.

I will admit I thought of my image on a much higher level then the general mass. It does make me ponder why the votes are so low. I know it is far from perfect as it was my first time creating such an image, but I felt proud of what I accomplished. I did not expect to win, but I really did expect a bit higher score (silly me for thinking such a thing.) This is a tough crowd. I do hope a few brave souls will stop by after the challenge and share some thoughts because I will be attempting this type of image again and I would like to see some improvement.

My preliminary research on DPC voters says is typically low in the first quarter of each year (with a high spike in December). This perceived pattern does not qualify for more research/confirmation due to the nature of myproject. However I suggest it could be related to sunlight hours

Was at 6.6 at 30 votes.

Nevertheless, still very decent for me.

Finally hit 5.0 (since the initial few votes where I was over 6, then under 5 the next morning).

5.0 is the new 7.

Dropping constantly.

Low number of votes considering the amount of entries.

But. I havent been on for awhile. Maybe its just the same old DPC.

Down .3 !!! Today

Not a big deal but when you have 8s & 9s mixed in its a big drop.

When you are sitting on a 7 or 8+ score, any vote below a 7 hits your score hard. So to get a three vote is REALLY noticeable!

Down .4 from an earlier high, but currently my best showing since my return to DPC.

Too bad it doesn't count towards my team...

Yes, I think when I get an 8 or a 9 vote it will be very noticeable also ;)

Can't believe this is scoring soooo bad.
I know it's not an above six image but I figured mid 5's.
At this stage I'd be happy to get over 5.

It wasnt just one vote..several votes of a really low score made this happen...with 8s&9s mixed into the span of 10 votes. This means I would need 6 straight votes of 10 just to get back to where I was!!
Gotta luv math ;)
