Yes, T8, we were really close on that one. It's a good thing Long Exposure came through, because Reflections isn't going to break five.
I'm having a pretty good time with B+W though...

PS: I'm a little confused about the WPL scoring ... it says that Imagenation is 1-0 !!! --meaning we won. Anyone else check this out? WPL scores

I'm guessing it's some automated thing he has going that will correct itself?

Pretty cool that our info is up there already though !

EDIT: OK -- it's dividing scores by 4 ... since our competition has 3 scores there for some reason - dividing them by four gave them a lower score -- it looks like we could be 0-1 after tuesday :(

if i may butt in to your thread for a second...

you are correct. scott puts up the mid-week scores to show us how we're doing before the tuesday rollover... i'm afraid you will be 0-1 going into round 2, but you did draw the best team ever(TM) for your first round, so that's not so bad...

seriously... having looked through your team profiles, i'm sure you'll turn it around and do well in the rest of the season... chalk it up to the rush of coming in late to the game.

good luck, and maybe we'll see you again in the playoffs...

Ah, but Kudzo we're leading now and remember, it's not over until it's over!
Heh, heh.

I guess I can improve it a little - I have 5.2207 in Neon. But I'm sure some of you guys do better than that in either Neon or in Reflections...

6.2 in black and white. Ohhhh yeah.

Better than the first weeks challenges. I'll see if I can get a good shot for tomorrows challenges too.....

yeah... so no... not really trash talk. i just know that our final team average will be about 6.2ish...

but if you really want trash talk? how about: "you best better pray for some dq's on our side before we crack the whip on your backside..." and my favorite line : "prepare to have your histogram shifted left..."

again... good luck and maybe we'll have a rematch in the playoffs...

but I'm pretty pleased!

GREAT! ... Looks like we'll have at least 4 scores over 6.X if we keep this up!!!

EDIT: Hey ... IS THIS HEADWEAR??!! ... I took this yesterday and thought it might fit.
Then again, if I post-it here I kinda can't submit it.

Oh, that pumpkin pic was ever so cute. Too bad you posted it.

I didn't see anything. :)) Then again I guess it's way "out of the box" for the average DPCer to vote high on it.

HEY -- I'm considering using that image ... I have removed it from my portfolio. If you want to delete the thumbnail I'd appreciate it. (only 4 views)

Hey all,

Question: Why, on some comments given, is the person's name "Hiddin Until Voting is Over" and has a paper bag on top of it? I've had a few comments like that in the past. Just curious as to who it is.

And hey, how's every one's BW entries?

Okay, it's gone. And I won't vote on that entry, should it come up.

In your preferences ... "Hide my name (unti voting is over)".
They check that - instant bag head.

My B+W is running a 6.57 !

Hey thanks for the explanation!

My B&W image is at about 6.36. !!! I'm pretty excited to be getting in the 6's.

Also metatate, your photo inspired me for a new idea for my headwear photo. My other ones really didn't turn out. So hopefully my new idea will work. I think it will either turn out awesome or just not turn out at all.
