Well it has been one year since my first entry in DPC.

Here are the facts:
Challenges entered ΓΆ€“ 115 (Do the math!)
Average score ΓΆ€“ 5.97
Ribbons ΓΆ€“ 1 - Red in Neon Signs



Top 5 finishes ΓΆ€“ 6
Top 10 finishes ΓΆ€“ 9
Top 20 Finishes ΓΆ€“ 22
Top 30 finishes ΓΆ€“ 42

High score ΓΆ€“ 7.22 Environmental Portrait (5th place)



Low score ΓΆ€“ 4.57 Magic and Mystery



Interesting notes:

3 entries score over 7 yet none of them ribbon
My only ribbon is barely in my top 10 scores
I am no closer to understanding what kind of image scores well than I was a year ago.

Check out my profile, you made the list of people I'd like to meet in the coming year, you know, to collect on that kiss you owe me. ;-)

He's tough, I'm on David's "DPCers I've met but never want to see again" list. I think it had something to do with "The Incident".

Very interesting - we started at about the same time. Most of my statistics are unimpressive until you compare my first ten with my last ten. My average score for the first ten is 5.1952. My average score for the last ten is 6.1352. Almost a full point of improvement :-)

I like what you do, so keep on doin' it. Your environmental challenge shot is still one of the best even if it didn't ribbon!

Maybe you have had too much wine. ...or not enough. ;-)

Dude, that's actually quite an outstanding year in my book! Congrats and keep it going!

I mark my annual achievements on DPC by this simple statement: "I am still here" (or sometimes "WHY am I still here?") ;-)

I mark my achievements by the number of my threads that get locked or hidden, and the number of people who lobby to have me banned from the site.
:-D

scarbrd has one rocking-high avg and it's some wierd luck he doesn't have more ribbons. But they'll come!
