| Before the big guns who came out to play for DPL drift away, how about we tempt them with a Masters Free Study? |

I love how you have to scroll to the 7th and final page before you find a sub-6 score. Ah well, one of these days I'll end up with a 2nd ribbon! >:-}

| Yes lets do this. I only got to participate in the last one and I'd love to see if I could improve on my 33rd placing. |

| I've never had anything good enough to submit when a masters challenge occurred. It is very intimidating. |

All things being equal - you'd qualify Janine.

I'm all for it, but I'd say change the criteria to at least 8 ribbons and 9 honorable mentions; that'd keep the riff-raff out :-)

Well said Wendy, 9 sounds just right! Oh, and a special rule (just in case) - no Topaz allowed! :P |

That could be interesting, but if it were me I would confuse people and make the qualifications more complex and difficult. :P Basically something like this:
The Ribbon Hog Qualifer
10 or more ribbons that scored over 7+ in a challenge.
The Brown Ribbon Qualifer
3 or more "Brown Ribbons" that scored 3.7 or lower.
The No Ribbon/Gold Star Qualifer
10 or more entries that finished outside of the top ten with 10+ favorites each, or 5 entries finishing outside of the top ten or bottom five with at least twenty 10 votes or ten 1 votes.

Actually, it's not a bad idea that as the site gets older, and more challenges are in the books, the criteria for a "Masters" study should increase. Of course, having said that, I don't even qualify as riff-raff, so please carry on. :-D |

I think I sprained my reading bone on that sentence. |
