That's it I have done it! I have turned the Simms fans over to my side. I was at 6.8ish and now over 7 and climbing.
My master plan is working!!

Very curious to learn what your experiment is. It's fun to sometimes throw something odd in and see what happens.

Oh, man! Don't say that out loud!!!

I'll end up with one of these! LOL!!!

Not that it would be a bad thing, though......it's still a PB in a big way and would hit a few of my 2008 personal goals in one fell swoop.

It seems to be wavering back and forth between high 7.2 and low 7.3...

yeah well, this challenge seems to be quite a high scoring one, already 2 people were outing themselves with 7+ scores and a few high 6's.
so i guess my score won't be good enough for the top 10...
still really happy, especially with these 2 fav's!

I guess I'm still not seeing things like the majority. I finished voting this morning, and what struck me...don't anybody throw things or cuss...was the amount of straight on pictures of abandoned houses and vehicles, nearly "snapshot"-ish. And a surprizing number of pics with no "abandoned" represented other than in the title. I didn't have one in this challenge, so I'm a bit more objective than usual. Highest I voted was 7, and only 3 of those. Maybe I'm part of the recent low-scoring malaise...dunno..but gotta call 'em as I see 'em.
