To follow the observation offered by Yo_Spiff: "...people are giving me the vote they think I am "asking for"."

Is anyone else feeling influenced to rate an image according to the score offered by the photographer?

For example if the submission has the title score of 6 - are you moved to select that rating or is your final rating above or below what the photograph's title suggests?

Just curious.


I thought this would be the case. Self-fulfilling prophecy, and all that...

.17 higher than my estimate

Well below what I thought I'd get and a true contender for the brown which is even more embarrassing considering my guess.

A good number of positive comments for something pulling such an unpopular average. This has been an interesting one so far. I'll do some voting of my own over the weekend.

just finished voting. Some folks are either being very modest, or really under-estimating themselves.

The comments are making this one a total success for me. The average vote sure isn't doing it.

My current score is EXACTLY what I thought it would be :)

Score is currently 0.0238 over my guess, but that'll never hold. I now predict that, when the dust settles, my guess will have turned out to be a bit optimistic.

The gap is widening. It's at 0.15 and growing in the wrong direction (i.e., actual score < guess)
