You know, throughout my 80 challenge entries, over the course of my time here at DPC.. I've noticed a trend.

On Thursdays, my score inevitably starts dropping. Sometimes it's a small drop, sometimes a large one.. but I can almost guarantee that on Thursday, I can expect to see some kind of drop in score.

Of course, *generally* it recovers over the weekend.. so maybe people are finally happy to be off work, or whatever.

Are Thursdays really that bad people? Is there a grump factor going there I don't know about? Is there a law that says you must use numbers under 4 or 5 on Thursdays? Superstition?

OH thursdays.. give me back my score.

Thursday is the day of Thor,
when hammered is the Artyste's score...

"This must be Thursday," said Arthur to himself, sinking low over his beer, "I never could get the hang of Thursdays."

I was just thinking that myself. Glad you got around to griping about it. It sounds better the way you put it.

It's all because of Global Warming. That, or after Wednesday night's episode of LOST, nothing seems to measure up.

Monday for health,
Tuesday for wealth,
Wednesday the best day of all;
Thursday for losses,
Friday for crosses,
Saturday for no luck at all.

'cause when it's thursday , people are tired of the week , they are more negative and if they vote the notes are not high.
I never vote if I feel too bad , the others are not responsible of what happens in my life. ;-)

my score has also dropped. I think of this type of stuff too. It's scary how people (we) can obsess about statistics. This statistic is capable of changing my mood. Perhaps Friday people will be drunk and give me higher scores :)

I don't have Mondays, I have Thursdays and they are the WORST!! My boss and I are fighting, his wife hates me and I DO NOT feel like working today. Things always goes wrong on Thursdays. I can't keep my customers happy, my orders get screwed up and I just want to go back to bed and put my head under the covers!!! Sometimes I have to ask...why me???

Have a nice day.

As a group, we should all go and-rescore our current votes 3 points lower than current scores .. then change them back tomorrow.
OK ... forget it --- I should be working.
This sinus problem is getting to me.
bye.

Maybe they are pissed because thier whole paycheck went to fill thier cars back up with fuel?

BTW, mine also has been dropping since Thursday morning. Here's to hoping voters get laid this weekend.

Being retired with infinite amounts of time on my hands, I have noticed that my scores consistantly go down during the daylight hours and then back up at night. This ratcheting effect generally has a downward trend!

Perhaps we need a HHGTTG challenge?
