On DPC, "HIGH SCORE" is an OXYMORON

I think almost everyone came up with it, but no one could figure out what to do with it. I know I couldn't...

And it's only accurate if you're anti-military.

Naw...

It's kind of like blond jokes. I'm blond and I enjoy a good blond joke. There are military people that enjoy that oxymoron, as well. It just depends on the person and what they find funny.

its "expectedly surprising" that im only getting an average of 4.7 after few days of voting??...

Nearing the 100-vote mark it's about where I thought it'd be, so that ain't so bad.
Onto my profile page anyhow.

Ok, well, maybe it's because I keep saying, "it happens, we can deal with it".

Maybe I should switch tactics:

DPC Low Voters Suck!!

Do you think that will work? :D

Actually it worked nicely for a short time -- climbed quickly up to 6.46 after my outburst. But dropped as quickly after that. Still a happy score, though.

Unfortunately I can't yell at low voters, because there was only one 3, the rest were mediocre voters.

On the bright side, I can get back up to 6.7 by simply getting twelve 9s and six 8s (and no more low votes.) No problem, hmmm? :D

Just got another 1.

oops, even more low votes.

Oh well, going from 6.7 at 67 votes to maybe losing the 6 in a bit.

Such are the vicissitudes of DPC.

Another 3.

Okay, scores are going off now.

happy! It's always nice when your score goes over the bottom limit of where you think it will go. still though, the voting on this competition has been very sinusoidal. it seems every second day it goes up and on the others it goes down.

Sunday down
Monday up
Tuesday down
Wednesday up! wohoo!

Wow, yesterday, my score sank like a torpedoed U-boat.

I'm not sure which depresses me more, the score or the 0 comments.

It has been going up and up and up from 4.9 earlier on in the week! I wonder if it'll knock my free study entry from its position. Mixed comments. But I'm really happy with this score. I think I was thinking around 5.5 to 5.high.

Anyone else feeling the love?

You guys must be careful....you may not identify each others images, whether you are voting or not, have already voted and therefore "wont change your vote" etc. It's tantamount to collusion and you're asking for trouble. Not least of which many members will take offense and will report you, if they haven't already (silently) done so.

If they report us, and we are found to have changed our votes after finding out somebody's entry, then good.
Otherwise, what's the problem? We are offering nothing more than encouragement/critique to someone who hasn't yet had any directed at her entry. We all like comments. Anyone who can't see that is clearly too bigoted and narrow mind to warrant my worrying about it.

Thanks for the warning though.
