Ok, you look in your profile and you see the challenge entry, the challenge, the date, the score, then percentage. I have yet to figure out what that means? Percentage of what??? Am I dumb?

if there were 100 entries and you finish 1st, you beat 100% of the competition. If you finished 10th you beat 90%.

It's not percent, it's percentile. It shows where you placed in the challenge with respect to the percent of entries you scored higher than. E.g., if you were 75th %ile, your pic scored higher than 75% of the entrants.
