		| My entry was totally last minute so I'm not expecting much. I actually went out with an idea, captured that idea, re-read the description of the challenge and saw the word "building"...... Off to plan B I went. |

		| I'm always coming in near last place, however, I had the highest score ever in all of my photos but I'm about to be disqualified.  Oh well, I didn't know.  I had a 5.9 and now have a 5.7, but it will be disqualified.  I'll have to keep my chin up and try harder next time.  I didn't know.  Sorry everyone. |

 Most of us have an oops or two like that in our past.
 
 Even though it is taken as "just ok" on DPC, I consider anything in the high 5's to be the kind of shot that will have your (non-photographer) friends and family wowing about what a great photographer you are.

		| On the topic of DQ's, do entries DQ'd during voting get removed from the pool, or do people still vote on them,  only seeing the DQ once voting ends? |

 The latter, I believe. I've noticed some images disappearing during voting now and then.

		Steady falling! It's probably about where it should be though, to be honest.

 Holding somewhat steady, and I'm pleased. Will be happy to end up with a 5. That's an accomplishment for me. |

		Yes! It's broken 5!
 ...and continuing down
 4's or less. Really?
 One comment. At least that's more than I usually get. ~:p |

		Started with a 4.0 :) went up to 5.8! and now down to 5.6 with 49 votes...
 
 This is disappointing really. Normally i don't take the challenges too seriously - i don't even shoot for a challenge but if i had taken a photograph that meets a challenge description, i might enter it. I know there are many, many better photGs here. But i was quite hopeful for this challenge and the way its going is... not good.
 
 But 6 very nice comments - they are totally worth it!

 So looks like they get removed. When I asked there was 88 entries, and one that I was pretty sure would get DQ'd. Now there are 87, and that one I was watching is gone. |

 You're comment to vote ratio is very good. I'm always happy when I receive one comment for every ten votes. If they say more than "good one" and are from photographers you respect that's an added bonus.
