Lock Your Door Knob Scores In If You Can Handle It

05/19/2010 09:12:08 PM · #51

Sub-5 now.

I have no compulsion to check scores at all. Have a couple of months worth of disappointing scores in a row, some moreso than others, and you'll be cured of any possible addiction to score-checking (and/or entering challenges) that you may have. At some point, you may even give up shooting altogether! Just a warning...

I'm now at 5.43, so gone down again.
I didn't check it this morning.

I have to say as it is just my first I am not entering for high points, I'm entering for the fun of it!
I really hope I don't give up.

Sitting on the happy side of 6, but barely. Hopefully it'll start the slow climb.

what's the point of posting in a scores thread if you are going to mask the score?

I don't know... I've seen other people do it, and it looked like fun. :)

Then there are times like this, when I haven't posted, and the score is still going down. So then you hope for the reverse-post-curse. Every time you post, the score goes up!!

Now I'll sit back and watch it go up, up, up! :)

Really? Let me post mine to see if you are right.

It's a tie -- obviously -- it's rare, but it happens :D

hmmmm.... nope... that didn't work either. Must just be the posting curse. Time to erase everything!

I'll be asking for "what the hell did I do wrong THIS time?" after the challenge if anyone is interested. I simply ask that no one say "underrated" or "underappreciated" in their analysis. Appropriate comments might be "sucks", "what were you thinking", "can I have your camera equipment as you're obviously not doing anything useful with it" or "no, really, what were you thinking??"

Ok, since I've dropped more than .14 since last night, I'm flaunting the posting curse!

I'm so very curious as to which one's yours. I don't think anyone should be doing poorly -- I thought this was a well done challenge, considering the fact that there's only so much you can do.
