Sorry for the vague title, but what I think would be cool is some type of graph that would record the score totals for a challenge submission over the course of the voting period.
In other words, I enter a photo and over the week of voting I keep track of it maybe once or twice a day and I see it drop from a 6 to a 4.5, then back to a 5, then down to a 4. I think it would be cool to have like a line graph or something that would record the results of the voting every few hours and I could watch the voting trend of the photo in stead of writting down the changing scores and doing it myself (i'm basically lazy).
Certanly not a necessary addition, and I think it would really only be for fun, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see this.
Thanks for listening! |

Many users here have an Excel spreadsheet which records how scores vyry during voting. The automation process would require RSS, a feature which has been asked for more than once, but has not yet been set up.
Do you want me to mail you a spreadsheet? PM me.

Don't suppose it is set-up to automatically pull the scores from the website is it? :) I'm just not able to check it often enough to show a good history.
But, I'll PM you and get the spreadsheet - thanks! |

| Maybe an alternative would be to have an option on the photo's page to view the raw vote data. Date/Time, vote, .... I can't think of anything else. Then you could download the data and slice it and dice it however you want. |

It's not that hard to set up a spreadsheet.
Enter your current score the same number of times as your number of votes into the excel sheet into column A (say 5.517 in 25 cells.)
in the next column B you'll put your guessed scores, when you get them.
in a cell right of that, say D2 enter =counta(A:B)
in the D3 enter =sum(A:B)
in the D4 enter =D3/D2
Enter your guesses for the next scores and make D4 approximate your DPC score. Lower the number of decimal places to 4 and you'll get the exact equivalent.

Well, it's 2006 and I was just thinking this same thing ...
For DPC addicts like myself, this would be interesting ... sorta like the stock market.
I like the raw vote data idea also.
The spreadsheet thing is not practical ... Especially since people on this site (I assume) more "visual".

| I solved this problem by turning off my score results until the challenge is over. Keeps me a bit more calm! |

The one I got from here does! It simply updates from the web page! Too easy.
