Yes, you nailed it. Had nothing to do with the actual image.

Thanks for the 1. Well deserved I'm sure...

I gave out no 1s for once, so it wasn't me.

Heh, I didn't mean you. I just meant whoever it was. You just happened to post before me. ;D

I thought each vote was supposed to come with a guess.

So far I have 17 votes and a long critique. I guess I took the word mystery too far.

I'm seeing that some are voting low if they are not :) Actually that's just a guess - but we'd have both ends of the spectrum covered that way.

I always vote first and then comment later.

I have 5 guesses and 1 correct. But what's cool is that the comments are from people I rarely if ever have seen from here. Shocked to not see any of the usual suspects taking part. But happy to meet some new people.
 07/20/2012 11:14:51 AM · #34
8 correct guesses out of 9!
 07/20/2012 04:04:30 PM · #35
I have just voted on 7 so far, gave all my guess and my opinion on each image. I cannot understand people who do not vote on the over-all quality of the image. Great images so far, good luck to everyone.

28 votes -- 15 comments. I love challenges with comments -- huge thanks to everyone who has commented so far. The fun thing is that people aren't just guessing a word, but saying a little about the photo, too -- which is ever more fun. :)

I'll be voting and commenting later on this week -- though I'm a terrible word guesser, I'll do it anyway. Then you'll see just how bad I am at this game. :)

Btw, the early voters were better at guessing mine than the late voters. :)

+1 (but I'm at 4 out of 6)

i made my word too easy... 14 guesses, all correct (or within the parameters i set for the "right" answer). good job on seeing the obvious! jk! i really enjoy getting comments... and a high 6 to boot!

Can we hint? Is that allowed?
I want to private message people who are trying really hard to guess.

Man, voting is way harder than entering in this challenge!!!

Oh... And one more thing: This is why I joined this site. What an amazing group of talented artists. "I'm not worthy!"
Such great photos and compositions. Really great stuff all around!
I will be proud just to be near the top of the bottom third.

The score and the easy nature of your word are probably related.

Haven't voted yet, but there are some folks here who mistakenly thought I wanted to spend an hour trying to figure out their photo.. They were wrong.

But the toughness of the riddle should not affect the score in any way except positive. If they took 3 good shots and combined them and stumped you then they succeed IMO.

I don't honestly think I'll vote this one, for a variety of reasons... I did comment 100% though, which was fun.
