How are you supposed to teach them anything if you can't beat them?

Exactly - I beat the hell out of them and they just get smarter.

Okay, I'm a little unsure I should mention this here, but I seem to have stumbled into some decent to good scores. :)

As of the last hourly update, I have two 5.47's and one 5.74. Ain't that kinda nifty?

I'm cruising along with a 4.7 on a picture I took at the last minute.

But not on this next challenge though. I have the entire weekend off and can concentrate.

Although, it's going to be hard coming up with an architectural pic involving life or death...

I'll get it though and slam one more home for Entropy.

Welcome to the Team!

Although I have to warn you...

I only joined about three challenges ago and i find myself sucking less and less.

This team is an oximoron. None of the work I've seen here actually seems to suck and, in many cases, it's actually incrdible.

I look forward to seeing your work.

Once again, welcome.

Suck is a state of mind, it's not about the score.

My understanding of Team Suck is that our work doesn't suck, it's just our scores that suck. You know, "We're okay, it's just everyone else that doesn't get it."

(My work may be an exception to this rule, but Team Suck is so nice they took me in anyway. It's probably my stray mongrel appeal.)

lesgainous Welcome to team suck! I notice that your photos really don't suck at all, but sucking is truly just a state of mind, as my fellow trusty teammates would say.

Don't worry, though, fellow Suckees, my scores ARE sucking quite nicely.

silverfoxx I've a question for you: a friend of mine once told me that the name Svetlana means "little flower" in Russian. True?

Stray mongrels do not (necessarily) suck.
Especially not novice stray mongrels.

hi Catherine!

not exactly true:) Svetlana means "light" literally, svet=light in russian. while "svet" is a masculine word, the word "svetlana" becomes a kind of feminine light.

you do? thank you!

showing off? :) I think she was a bit too modest. at least I prefer that "light" meaning (it's light as from the sun, not the opposite to heavy)
