Well.....Just finished up my voting.

Stats: You have rated 85 of 86 images (99%) in this challenge.
You have commented on 48 images (56%) in this challenge.

I rated 15 images higher than mine without *any* question at all.

The ones that I'm not sure about that I rated the same are all too many.

Damn!

I was sooooo sure I was gonna be a Top 20 candidate, now I'm just figuring on Top 50! LOL!!!

At least I know it'll be a Top 86!

I do know in my own mind and heart which one is the hands down winner, though!

I'll be curious to know how that shakes down, 'cause as *I* see it, there isn't another even close.

I have 650 too. It's not normal. The low number of entries let's people go back and review.

Or some is trying to figure out who owns an entry by refreshing a bunch of times and looking at the image views is people's profiles.

Or it's just a really good shot and people enjoy looking at it. ;-)

Makes sense now.
Good Luck to you in this Challenge

Hi Everyone, its Mark the DNMC Nazi here..

Next time you enter a group portrait challenge, make sure you enter group portraits, not group candids - theres a big difference.. and yes, I am marking those down who do not meet my strict critera.. will be commenting on all shots though!! almost halfway through..
 10/08/2007 05:47:03 PM · #60
hahah, saying that I just got another shot here that could be a portrait OR a candid, and its a great image..

I am so indecisive.

fair points contained therein?

Finished.. 100% voted on, 100% commented on.. and that was a small one, couldnt imagine commenting 100% on a freestudy..

Probably upset a few people along the way.. nevermind.
 10/08/2007 07:32:09 PM · #69
You didn't upset me in the least! ;)

Yay!! A new personal worst!! Oh well, given the condescending comments I've been getting, I'm sure that most would have self DQ'ed at this point. I'm taking my beating though. Most comments give the impression that I've completely ruined their day by posting an image that no one likes. Thank God I don't take the whiners seriously.

Every once in a while, someone gives me a comment that I can actually use. Those are ones I'm actually looking for.
 10/08/2007 09:23:32 PM · #74
I think Missykim said it well. I'll add that you turdling condescending commenters can bite me :D Consider learning how to interact with human beings.
 10/08/2007 11:14:42 PM · #75
Tee hee! AMEN!!! And I have to say, it always irks me when people leave dogmatic comments about things you did wrong -- things that are so subjective and a matter of one person's personal tastes over another. Why I wonder do some people thing their opinion about what looks good is right and the photographer's personal choice is wrong.

Oooooops. . . sorry to rant. Back to the topic. . . Sorry Missykim :hug:
