jumped about 1.5 at rollover. Still wonder what wierd computation they were using pre-rollover...
I believe my picture is too kitsch. And underappreciated. ;) |

I really think this may of happened. If so I hope we see scores go up as they change the votes

I liked my pre-rollover score better. I had three good possibilities in mind :-)
Post rollover - ouch
Still, I didnt mind the april fools joke. Saying that this incident caused you to lose faith in the voting system is just overboard.

If you voted mad yesterday, I suggest you go look things over again. :) |

That's probably true which would be very unfortunate because I doubt everyone would go back and change it. People don't vote on 100% in the challenges so voting twice on the same images is probably too much to expect.

Well, it gives all of us a good excuse for our lower than deserved scores in the end. It's not my picture, no, no, it's the angry voters. :)

Neener! Of course my streak is only at 2 right now so maybe I should just keep my mouth shut. |

I think that was a member who did that as their own joke and has nothing to do with the admins or so I've heard. |
It was a member, but they have promised to go back to every shot and revote/comment |
I caught the culprit before he changed his vote to be annonymous. I had sent him a PM as soon as I saw his comment. If my memory serves me correctly, it was raish

Okay, I've read through most of this, and am about to go on a mini-rant so if you want to skip this post please do.
Guess what?? !
A lot of people think this is funny. I am not bothered by it personally. But I can understand why other people would be! God didn't make us all with our senses of humor the same. And you can say, "hey, I think you should lighten up, it's just a joke" but I'm getting the sense that some people feel that anyone who doesn't appreciate the joke is just horrible, which isn't true. (And yes, I do acknowledge that some people are probably overreacting negatively to the joke as well.)

Thanks. Because creationism was such a central point of my argument. |
