Same here. Someone is giving 5's to images. Will be interesting to see how my different take on this goes

Add one more 5 as the first vote.

And I got another 5 as my second vote - maybe we will all get the blue with all having a score of 5!

Nope, you all have me beat now. My second vote was a 4 so I am now down to 4.5. Should have been happy with my 5. At least I was in good company!!!

I am sure you will recover just fine. You have about 200 more votes to come to balance out the 4!

Oh - and don't feel left out, I just got a 4 too!

Big THANKEE to the person who just gave me a 10! When you only have a few votes it can really bump the score.
In my heavily biased opinion it is one of the better shots I have had in a while so I really want it to do well. Started with a five but I have learned not to read too much into the early voting.

After 10 votes, i am at 4.5000

My fault really for entering a photo that requires thought, discovery, and a little extra attention to understand it.

Hopefully the voters later, who arn't speed voters, might take the time and see what I was getting at...........

OK - I confess to being a little vexxed; I'm normally rather sanguine about such things but my entry is currently sitting at 5.16 after 12 votes. I would have predicted a 6 - 6.1 for this image. I don't often see scores increase more than about 0.5 from this stage forward. That means, at best I could look forward to a heady 5.6 - 5.7.

Do others agree or have some of you had bigger recoveries than 0.5?

05/06/2009 02:38:51 AM · #19

My free study picked up significantly from there. Recent trends on my photos have been a crap start, and a significant pick up. hopeing that continued for this image as its getting killed......

Free study was at 4.8 after 8 votes, and now is puching 6............

I think there are a number of low speed voters running around, which doesn't help if you image required thought

Gah, didn't really think it was a 4.x image, but what do I know...

Join the club. I am down there with you as well. Went for something different for me to challenge myself, was happy with the result, and are also int he 4s. Seems the voters are a bit harsh today. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day for them, and our scores might then rise.......

And Jelena, studying in Cambridge. I am relocating over there in a couple of months..............
