A toast! A toast! (Nobody has made any references to Rocky Horror yet, so I may as well do that evil deed.)

I absolutely second that.
I finished voting.
Gave out seven 10s and ten 9s.
Very impressive the quality and creativity in this challenge.

There are shot's that make you hungry, shot's that make you laugh, shot's that could be used as adverts as well as one or two bordering on surreal.
All of this from 'Bread'.
One of the things that has repeatedly impressed me at DPC is the imagination people have in taking something very ordinary, and making it appear extraordinary - the only challenge is getting the voters to agree : )
lot's of good work though.

I'm not doing particularly well, but pretty good for my own standards (but maybe not for my ego) considering I put together the shot in about five minutes on the last day of the competition with the only bread I had laying around and a two-month old bagel that seems to never get moldy (or thrown out).
There were some great photos in the challenge, really excellent.

I'm guessing (hoping? ;>P) there will be a lot of votes scrubbed in this challenge. Scores seem unusually low across the board in this one. I'm sitting at a 4.9 right now with a picture that I expected would pull a 5.5 or better and had some possibility of sneaking over 6. That said, a 5.2 would not have surprised me all that much. The current score is a surprise, however, as are a number of the other scores being reported here (including the high ones which, imho, should be even higher).
Not complaining, just observing. It is what it is, and the voters are always right (after they've been scrubbed, that is!)

It would be nice if you were right . . but I don't think it will be the case.
I say this because there are only a handful of people posting on this thread, which means the vast majority of the scores are hidden. |

I was really looking at mid to upper 5 for my entry. I am rather disappointed in the results to this point. |

Looks like signal and I are neck to neck...same votes, comments and score (virtually).
Was expecting a bit higher too, but too much of newbie to it all to predict...
Have gotten positive and constructive comments as to how it could have been better...

Wow, our stats/scores are eerily similar. I hope we both climb a few points before the challenge ends.

I did have hopes that this would get on my top line . . but those hopes have long gone : (
This will be the best revival since Lazarus if it makes it now : ) |

I thought putting extra time into the setup would have yielded something a bit higher...

Where are all the other people on this challenge ?
There's 165 entries, and only a handful of commentators.
Come on boys and girls, stop being shy - come in and say hello :- ) |
