Looks like I will be moving on to week two. I will not be using my "Fallen" submission. Instead I will use my morning or evening shot depending on which one I enter.

I had gone with the default starting challenge of Cardboard Box. I think I may just scrape in and meet my average score (5.9882) to go into Round 2....cross your fingers everyone...please!

It's a tough choice for the second round, but I think I will go with Evening instead of Fallen. (Current score in FS is 5.9+, so no worries about going through to the next round.)

I am out! FS IS 6.2 but my lawn is 5.4 lol. I KNEW i should have gone with the FS. oh well. good luck all!

My score had started to climb a bit, and I got hopeful, but then dropped again. Oh well...

And back up again. Hmm. Starting to feel like a yo yo.

Well, that was disappointing. Back down it has gone, so I guess I am going to be out this week too.

Phew. The last vote received put my FS over my average. Just, by a whisker. SO, here's hoping it continues. It's gone from 4.00 this morning to 5.558 this evening. It's been a long day.

I just want to say I don't want to use Fallen for the 2nd week (just in case I do enter). I'll be using one of the two open's for this weeks entry.

Same here - no Fallen entry from me unless something miraculous happens between now and midnight lol.

My FS is teasing me. Up to 5.3474 now with 95 votes. Quite a jump from yesterday so I guess there's still some chance it will break 5.5. I am not going to have any nails left by the time voting ends!

Good luck Mary - that will be crazy to watch. Hopefully the vote scrubber will work in your favor!

Dennis, Apologies scratch my earlier decision, I will go with Fallen for wk2. Damn I will probably regret this LOL

I am not going to use Fallen & will instead use either Morning or Evening. Hopefully I made the right choice. Man this is tougher than it seems. Thanks

Robert, I hope you mean either Morning or Evening and not the challenges to be announced on Tuesday?

My Free Study may beat my average if it holds where it is. I have entered "Fallen" and have predicted it won't beat my average, but I'm going with it anyway since I don't think my "Morning" will beat my average either. Nothing like a positive attitude! :-)

Same here -- I *know* the one I'm considering entering for morning will be hammered (repeat after me: resist the urge to enter, resist the urge to enter ...). My fallen entry will either score way above or way below my average, so I'm crossin my fingers and going with that one (which no doubt means it will be nail biter that hangs right around my average all week!)

Good luck everyone! Got my fingers crossed for you Judi -- from the prior posts, looks like we're gonna lose a fair number of the heavy hitters, including DrAchoo, Bear_Music and jdannels this week.

I need to submit to Morning/Evening cos of the Olympics. I have a 'fallen' image but worried it will feel the wrath of the DNMC police. Hey Ho
 08/03/2008 02:12:05 PM · #417
I`m going out :(
But will be back for season 2 :)
 08/03/2008 02:34:42 PM · #418
I do believe I will be here for week 2. As such, for Week 2 I am going with Fallen. Finally got it to where I think it is a go - still not absolutely thrilled with it as that I STILL think it could be better but at this point I am NOT going to do a Third photo shoot.

Again best wishes and Good Luck to everyone!

Can we have clarification of where the WK2 average to beat comes from? I'm asleep at rollover so never know what the end of challenge does to my overall average.


Dennis, do you have a cunning plan to work out where next weeks average is taken from?

scrap that, I've just learnt how to read the rules lol

Note: I will pull your averages as soon as I can after Sunday rollover, and then post them here same as we did for week 1.

I'm afraid I'll be out of this contest, my current score in cardboard is 0.05 below my average. Hoping for rollover!

I'll be sailing on into the second week, but I don't have an entry for fallen, so I'll go with one of the Tuesday challenges.
