Check this out. I've placed exactly 21st in my last three entered challenges. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining in the least. I just thought it was strange. :)

Ummm, last time I looked, you had a yellow ribbon for Goggles, and an average quite a bit above mine. Are you saying you have no other top 20 entries?

Nevermind, I think I misunderstood your post.

I had a streak where I kept getting 4ths and 11ths, back when I actually was submitting images people *liked*; I have vague memories of those days :-) It *does* feel weird to keep finishing right at the edge of a threshold, doesn't it?

Maybe you need to be better!

Only joking, just remember scores aren't a definitive indication of quality. You get a lot of faves and comments.

Don't you see it? It is a sign to go to Vegas and play Blackjack.

Huh? 7 of your 10 top scoring images are top 20. So your latest images have only got to 21. I wouldn't be saying you can't crack the top twenty.

Yes, you are right. I should have rephrased the subject. I just thought it was weird to get 21st place three challenges in a row.

I once had 20 ribbons in a row with no yellows, then the next 5 (and 7/8) were ALL yellow. Scoring is funny that way.

And still no Free Study ribbons. :P

Speaking of which, I wonder who has the most Free Study ribbons. I looked at Brin and DrAchoo, two guys I thought would have many but they only have 2 a piece, the same as me. Larus only has 3 and IreneM only 1. Is there such a thing as a Free Study Ribbon Hog?

I've had a streak where I got all avg's below 5 and above 4. How lucky is that! ;-)
