Basically, the awarder needs to add the award as a comment for me to pick it up. I don't scrape the posthumous thread. So some examples where the MUAIMHO are given here, but not in comments are not captured by me. Same with jury'd ones. a specific user needs to leave a comment on an image with a specific image. It won't get it all, but it gets 90% there I reckon.

Ok. Sounds like you're doing web scraping (Python probably) and looking for specific (your own library based numeric image ref to 'bling' images) items, and only walking the scraper thru challenge entries - not forum threads. Sound about right?

Yep - more or less.

I used to give asigmatic out in comments, see for example

I was thinking about the asigmatic award the other day -- I was wondering if I would have received it for Feast challenge

It's actually the standard deviation of the votes that is used.

It's not a perfect metric for the purpose, but it is reasonably reasonable for the purpose.

Yup -- I know. I just figured with that wide of a spread the standard deviation would be rather wide. And it was. :)

(I just didn't have the patience to do the StDev myself.
