Hey hubby likes mine and wants to frame it lol. So there!

I just keep telling myself that lol. And he's honest, he wouldn't just tell me that to make me feel better.

Or would he?

I have just spent the last hour commenting on some of the entries here. Some beautiful shots it has really been a pleasure viewing. I am new here and am very impressed. I am glad I didn't enter this one I couldn't even begin to compete.

Goin downhill fast! LOL. Oh well, it is fun. I am not a full member so I have to wait for a full hour before I see an update. I also cannot see the scores yet. (almost enough to make me pay some $ and join so I do not have to go through this agony!!)

Actually I am planning on joining next week anyways. That way I can enter more challenges and have more reason to keep shooting. Hopefully it will pay off.

Good luck everyone.

So if you're a member, you get to see instant updates on your score???

Hmmm?

Hey, basssman7, you have 13 votes more than I do! Not fair. :)

Apparently. I see posts from others that are commenting on scoring as the voting is still taking place. Can a member please clarify?

Hi everyone,

Excuse my ignorance (I've been away for a while) but has anything changed in the way open challenges are handled? The reason I ask is, I see they are now called "Exclusive Open Challenge".

I did a quick search of the site but couldn't find anything on the "Exclusive" Open Challenge.

The site is running simultaneous open challenges now; the "exclusive" part is that you can only enter one of them at a time. If you've posted an entry to "exclusive challenge A", you won't be able to post to "exclusive challenge B" unless you first delete your submission to challenge A. It's a way of reducing the size of the field in the open challenges; we were regularly seeing 550+ entries in these challenges and it was wearisome to vote on them.

Thanks for the explanation Bear, and I couldn't agree more. It was getting next to impossible to view/vote on all the entries.

well I was holding out hope for a great first challenge score but its dropped below 5.5 now. I was hoping to stay above that! There is still hope, and for a first challenge I am still happy with it.

I have to say that I really, really enjoyed voting on this challenge. There were some truly beautiful pictures to look at, some technically perfect and mostly they were just good. So you can all thank me for increasing your average scores :D

I agree Roger. I thought there were some beautiful photos out there...I have my top favs, of course, none of which were mine, but I had a great time looking through the pics. I think my average vote on the challenge is about 6.9 to 7.0! Best of luck to everyone and hey, only a couple of hours left and yippee, the pain'll be over.
