128 roughly, and I had the same thought, surely people would not let that influence their scores and they would be mature enough not to vote low just for an edge in a competition that is ultimately a bit of fun? Good God I do hope they are not how sad would that be...
ETA: That a little while ago I looked through the users online and there was a fairly high percentage of new users (registered in the last 5 - 7 days) with low vote count and VERY low avg scores... not sure what it means but I don't like it much.

He-he. I haven't done that in a long time (look at the newest registered list)...at least that one has commented on 23 of the 74 votes cast. Did you notice the one registered today with 1 vote cast, 1 comment made, and avg vote cast of 1.0? There must be a good story behind that one! :-D |

I was wondering the same thing... sad really sad if that is why all scores are so low.
:(

| It does my head in really, photography is an art and art is subjective I understand that, I also understand that whatever community you go to there will be troll type people that try to get under the skin of others, but for some unknown reason I really thought this place would be different, I guess you expect people that can afford to be apart of the Digital age would have some sense of morals and well just sense in general I guess, this is most definitely not intended for the majority on the site just the minority that think it funny / clever to try and ruin an otherwise awesome community. |

ditto ... my score is absolutely terrible (4.8xx) ... I can't figure it out either ... obviously I'm not connecting with the voters, but I have NO clue why |

Of my three scores on my homepage right now one is a 4.6 and another a 5.0. Which do I get rid of? lol! I guess I can hope the ribbon inbetween them will soften the blows. ;) |

So are the ones that aren't totally BW just DNMC or are they a rules violation? Is the "MUST" part of the description an extra rule? Or does it just make it DNMC?

What's up with this challenge???! I am at an all-time low. I've never scored in the 4's before ... and I would be tempted to self-DQ but I actually like the shot a lot. I know ... we all fall in love with our own work, right? :)
Anyway, here are the pathetic stats:

I'm in the Olympics, and for the record I do not vote in any Challenge where I am entered.
Not that hammering my neighbors would do much good...
