Are you SERIOUS!?!?
If that holds, you'll destroy the lowest rated score on DPC. That'd be an honor in and of itself.

I smell ribbons at both ends of the spectrum going to Team Suckers. :-)
And Matt definitely has a new PB going!
I have a mid-5 (yay!!) score in trains, and nothing else in at the moment. I do have a FS entered, and will probably submit for candid.

I am truly delighted that you are getting such great use and results from it. It seems to suit you well! |

____________________________
OK I'm busted, I was in a playful mood last night and my wife was asleep when I got home so I had to find something to do with myself :)
I hope you guys won't hurt me too bad for having you on for a bit. I was going to keep updating it until the voting was almost over but my conscience got the better of me during my sleep
and I had my own nightmare over it (everyone was really angry with me, starting a lynch mob, a smear campaign, and finally uncerimoniously tossing me out of team suck on my tired lonely ass)
I woke up screaming and dripping with sweat. The dogs took off from our room so fast there was smoke trailing behind them and my wife, who wears ear plugs, was straight arming me saying I
was snoring really loud. So I needed to set the record straight.
One thing I hope we can all agree on though, is, a score like that would be a nightmare for anyone, even people here at team suck :)
A very sheepish.
MAX! |

| LOL! You don't have to hide, Matt. We will occasionally tolerate a good score. Even a ribbon. In fact, we'll celebrate with you! Hang in there and be proud of your new PB very non-suck score. It's all a balance thing - yin/yang. Or something like that. :-) |

Haha, I know, I've gotten so much better since I have joined TS.
All I can say is that it is going to be a very VERY long week. ;-)

| TS has that effect on a few. Not many, just a few. We've even had a few rather sudden defections when some discovered they were a lot less sucky than they originally thought. But it all boils down to an attitude or an outlook, not a "score" when it comes to Team Suck. |

Probably what helped me most was just not worrying about the score and just putting something in for fun.

Yeah....it really isn't about sucking, it's a state of mind.
Deb and Robert most assuredly do NOT suck, yet their attitude and demeanor, not to mention their styles personify "The Way" of Team Suck.
Of course, the REAL way to get here is to finally have that strange little corner of your mind find that elusive slice of imagery that'll garner you a  posthumous ribbon.
Okay, I just threw that in there 'cause I'm STILL chuffed about it! LOL!!!

| Yes, my own personal attempts to get a Posthumous took two years... Now I strive for another one. Or a Thumb. In the mean time, though, I just enter stuff I like. :-) |

I'm still working on a regular ribbon and a Posthumous ribbon but I haven't had very good luck. They need to design a ribbon titled "You really suck bad".
I darn near had a "No comments during challenge" ribbon, but my sister had to go and comment on my entry and screw it up for me!! |

Maybe we should make a "No comments during challenge beyond immediate family members" ribbon. And never give up on the elusive Posthumous! The first key is to prevent pointandshoot from entering.... :-) |

Didn't we have one week where there were four Team Suck ribbon winners on the front page? |

I just got a third place in my local camera club competitionb with my Trains & Railroads image.
It was just barely over six for about three days, but it dipped on Monday morning, and it looks like I'm gonna finish with a 5.9.
But I like it!.....8>)
