Which one doesn't belong in the last 5: 9,8,9,8,1? |
probably the 9,8,9,8 that your family members gave you :) |
Very true. I need to stop talking about scores. It brings bad voo-doo! |

You know what you like for yourself, and that's more than many people can say. 5.9 is a kick ass score in a challenge like this. You don't have some meaningless eye candy, and you don't have something truly unforgettable to the masses, so take some comfort!
This challenge, for me, was never about the score (although I am happy with my own 5.8) but about really trying to connect to some people and offer something I truly think exemplifies my own love of photography. Something that I would be happy to capture every single day.
That is what I've put forth, and score be damned, because I know what I want from myself. |
true enough... thats the better perspective :) |

I hope so! But oh well, "it's not about the scores," so they say...
Yeah, right, lol! |

;D There's always a small part that is about the scores, of course. It's fun to see good scores. It's not my primary worry though.
I've received one comment in the last 7 hours. That's a worry. People are flagging! |

You know, when below 6 I don't mind anymore either. But I started with a 6.8 this morning (about 2 hours after rollover with ± 40 votes.) Then I do care :P
Hm, that's not a lot of comments.. probably will rise somewhere in the challenge, right? I hope so for you! |

I suspect I got a 3 with one of my recent "glowing" comments |

I blame it all on Dr.Confuser, who started that thread telling people to praise stuff! ;)
I'm kidding, of course. |

Yeah, woke to a rise of .5 and have watched it steadily drop .3 so far. It can quit now! :( |

I'm giving all 3s with my glowing comments.
And my score doesn't rock last I checked (somewhere in the 5.0 range when I checked this morning) but I have a bunch of great comments. I connected with a few here and there, accomplished what I set out to accomplish, so it's all good. Unless you don't like my 3s with your glowing comment..... |

Never mind the votes, but 145 vote and 15 comments so far, that may be a personal best! |

Not good. I was aiming for a <4.999 score with >10 x 10s, so now I suspect I've chosen the wrong shot. I'd take a few 1s if there's any spare. Perhaps the Doc's aberrant 1 was intended for me? |

Well if you're not happy I'll swap you mine. Don't let the score fool you. It's only that high because the first 40 voters, whom I'm guessing are all related to Paula Abdul, gave me a 7.5 to start out with.

I have 16 great comments but score is only 5.73, almost sounds like April fools day is a bit early this year. |
