It looks like all my votes got scrubbed.

I gave out a lot of 1's, 2's and 3's because I thought the entries were seriously bad...including my own, I should add.

I know it doesn't matter all that much but I kind of wish they were reinstated.

I could be wrong...
It looks like they do appear on the Challenge Thumbnail page but not on the individual images.

Out of curiosity, how do you know they were scrubbed?

My guess is he's seeing photos with no 1's.

I was looking at indiviual images and the usual red highlighting my score doesn't appear as it does on other Challenge entries I've voted on.

I does appear on the Challenge thumbnail page, however.

O'll be Bock!!!

I just noticed that three of my 10's got the Brown/Blue, the Brown/Red and the Brown/Yellow.

Wooo Hoooo!

a ticket is probably the best way to get an answer/action in a timely manner

Still don't get this. Think I got the Brown Yellow, but no 10, and from you a "?," which if it was sincere prompts me to ask you to revisit and read my blurb. Your entry was sweet, by the way.

I gave you a 10 but it doesn't say so on the image. On the Challenge page it say's 10 just above my lovely "?" for a comment.

Ooh, thank you. (I'll tell Buster, maybe even sic him onto the powers that be).

I've noticed similar but I usually write it off as not completing the 20% requirement, which unfortunately happens a lot when I start to get bored with the entries. Is there a way to check if you did vote on 20% without having to view each photo page?

Once you have voted on one image, just click on the challenge topic where all the thumbnails are. It shows the thumbs of what you have not voted on below and above says something like this.
Stats: You have rated 1 of 172 images (1%) in this challenge.

Don't forget! You must vote on at least 20% of the photographs for your votes to be counted. This part is in red

I meant after the challenge is over.

Note that you can also drop below the 20% mark if images are DQ'd during voting.

For example, if I voted on 12 out of 60 entries, that's 20% and I can stop. But if one of the images I voted on gets DQ'd, then I've only voted on 11 out of 59, and that's only 18.6%. Thus, if you're into doing the bare minimum, do a little above 20% for safety sake.

Of course, given that your votes show up on the index and not on the image, this probably wasn't the case for you.

My question is why did you give a photo you didn't understand a 10?

I don't believe that is true. Unless things have changed votes made on DQed entries still count in the average vote received stat so one would assume that it also counts in average vote cast stat as well.

I believe you are correct. In the distant past, I believe that a DQ could drop someone below 20%, but I don't believe that can happen anymore.

I was spreading the love.

It's all part of my new "Up With People" campaign.

I figure, why condemn something just because you don't understand it?

Odd - I believe this (or something similar) has happened to me, and I haven't been here that long. Not that I skimp by with 20%... really... Oh well. =)

Yep, this is good philosophy, specially with so many women around us, whom we would never understand.
