I've not had any new votes but my score has dropped a bit. People are going back and dropping their scores on my photo, aww nuts.

One more day to go! Won't be a personal best, but an easy second. :-)

I just had the ultimate compliment for an abstract challenge. Requested validation! Score is low, but I expected it. This is another case of my genius being ahead of the times and my technical abilities being way behind the times.

I'm happy my average has climbed up a bit today, even happier that since I've hardly had any new votes for 2 days, it means some people have gone back and decided my photo is worth more than what they gave originally :)

I wasn't hugely pleased with my entry, I'd never tried abstract before and had a major lack of ideas but my score is better than I anticipated. Thank God it'll be over soon though, this contest has dragged on long enough!

As for my entry, I would be happy if I could keep it above 4.3 in my first ever challenge. From some criticism, I have a lotttt to improve!!

I'm still within scrubbing distance of beating my average, which would be great because my free study's doing very well. So if this climbs just a bit I can stay in the side tourney for another week.

If I may speak. No you don't have to have a minimum average to normally participate in a side challenge unless the rules state so. Anyone can setup a side challenge. The one I think Jeff was probably referring to was //www.dpchallenge.com/forum.php?action=read&FORUM_THREAD_ID=800573 . Where each a challenge entry has beat your personal avg. The link there should offer all the info you're curious about.

Come on, come on... Any chance of 5+ before rollover?

I think my shot is definitely 5+ worthy, but the old 'abstract' definition is catching me I think.

WOW. I lost 10% of my votes at rollover, and since they averaged 4.5, my score jumped 0.13. The largest jump I'd ever seen before was 0.05!

And Lonni, I see you got your 5 and then some. :)

Mine jumped by more than 0.2 after the scrubber. I was kind of surprised about that.

My score jumped by 0.12 as well at rollover. Not sure how many votes I lost, but it went up to 5.5. Quite surprised really.

Almost the same here. I lost 12 votes at rollover that averaged 4.4 so it up my score from 5.89+ to over 6. A jump of 0.1147 I'll take it!
