This is a scoring thread, not a DPL attack/defense thread.

if we only vote with crooked letters, that means only 7 and 4 count (and 4 is only 1/3 as crooked as 7 is, overall)

Voters have a very skewed view of my entry - it is quite unjustly sitting a smidgeon below 6. Tbh, a final 5.2 would be overly generous!

mines at 4.6!!

Apparently the thread title offended someone... :(

Yeah, your title seems to be a "not funny" insinuation that impugns the integrity of DPC. The challenge has nothing to do with rigged voting, DPL or otherwise. Am I the only one who finds the title out-of-line? Furthermore, if you have evidence of rigged voting, then I hope you will back your title words with your proof.

I just thought it was a tongue in cheek nod towards some of the discussions. It didn't bother me.

However, back to the scores -- mine is fluctuating rapidly.

Scoring threads are often constructed to be funny. Kevin has a long and distinguished history of creating such threads for us.

As the thread stands now, it is well within my threshold for humour. I'm sorry it isn't within yours but given you don't have the power to change it, I guess you'll have to live with it. However, if a multitude of people share your concerns I'll reconsider.

Wow Richard... still no sense of humor, eh?

And the title was already changed to remove the "DPL" joke, so just relax and snap on.

Well, guess I missed the humor in your joke title. It must be a cultural, regional and/or generational difference in word interpretation. If a group is characterterized as "cheaters" in my area, it is taken as an offense. But, evidently you can say anything you want at DPC, under the guise of "meant to be humorous".

Richard, I've called you many things over the years, but never a cheater. :) <--- smiley face, denotes humor.

Ok, joke's over, keep moving, back to scores....
07/20/2015 04:34:15 PM · #18
Did not vote yet, just glanced at a few pics and I find very refreshing the minimal editing; no more haloes, no saturated colors, no over sharpening, no cropping…they look like real photographs!
Must say that i like post processing but we all tend to abuse it sometimes.

Started voting.
Got dizzy.
Had a few drinks.
Now I'm more dizzy.
Time to finish voting!

I looks like many did. There are a lot of shots of something crooked...instead of crooked shots.

Challenge description - Skewed horizons, twisted perspectives, use your imagination and go out-of-the-box and out-of-whack. How is something crooked seen as DNMC?

True。

I don't think people understand that it's MINIMAL editing... Not much you can do there... HOWEVER it will be the last damn time I ever enter a minimal challenge again. I'm sitting at a 3.9

Not saying I'm a 7 but at least a mid 5
