This image had 294 votes right before the voting ended.
It now has 256 and the score jumped .35
That means the lost 38 votes were at an average of about 2.88
did something happen?

Automatically voters that did not put in at least 20% get eliminated right off the top ... that may have something to do with it ...

same thing happened to me. glad it was the low votes that were lost. I jumped about .3 as well.

I was just wondering the same thing. My bored photo went from 4.9 to a 5.2 in a second.

In addition to taking away votes from people that did not vote on more than 20%, SC has the secret formula for calculating troll votes and take those away, too. I'm not sure how the formula works, but I must imagine that if you vote 250 images with 1 or 2, and then you vote on a few of them with a 9 or 10, you're a troll and your votes don't count.

I also gained a few tenths of a point. I guess it must have been the trolls that got cleaned up.

ps. read about how I took my not-so-successful bored photo. I had fun doing it, even though it did not fare well.
