Has anyone noticed that those with a 7+ average on their challenge photos never post their scores?

It's considered bad luck...like a jinx to post such a high score.

I didn't even breathe for the week I was at 8+

Certainly wouldn't have posted about it :)

bad luck & good manners.., it takes away a lot of hope for the 6+ people :)

At 7+, posting is boasting.

Unless you entered neon, then 6+ is boasting :)

Maybe the 7+ people are out improving their skills or working on their next 7+ entry instead of continuously updating people on what they've already done. ;)

oh, I am guilty of this then. But I had thought of it as not jinxing myself since I always post my score anyways that not doing so would upset the voting gods. I'll take this into consideration next time and maybe do the ole 7.xxxx or some sort of dancing fruit. This is making a very big assumption that I haven't already peaked and will have a score like that again. All apologies, I wasn't trying to boast.

So a 6.1 is good in Neon? Woohoo!

Neon...Avg Vote:6.0444

I'm en route to the lowest Yellow in DPC history.

I don't ever think they're boasting when I see folks post higher scores. :) I like seeing them, cuz it gives a better idea if we're getting our hopes up too much for our 6+ scores to break the top 20 or so. (Ribbon? Ferrrrgetttt it!!)
