I can't help wondering... if up to 10-12 ones have been stripped from a number of entries in this massive re-calculation, there must be more that three disqualified people implicated in improper voting, right? or there were some fake accounts that were simply closed?

It looks like fake accounts that were closed.

I don't know where I placed before, but I do know that I lost 14 votes that averages 2.85xx -- so my score jumped by .27 or so... 99th place now.

Well, with the recalc, I my entry has been "promoted" from second-last to last place. I was pretty disappointed with how well I did originally. After all of the excitement though, I have to admit that I would have scored my photo right around what my average score was. So I think my score and therefore placement are totally fair. I'm just disappointed that I didn't get more comments -- especially with my awesome title and supporting description. I figured at least one person would have at least been confused as to what I was talking about.

Anyhow, I heard there's some kind of medal for last place? How does that work? Is that good :)?

The coveted brown log of honour.

Don't let fotomann_forever pull your leg too much. It is more commonly known as a "brown ribbon".

Originally posted by danonkeys:

Ummm. Lowest score of non-DQ'd entry. No official designation. There's also next to last, and 3rd from last (in progressively lighter shades of brown). Actually 4.1 is a fairly high score for a brown.

That depends on your perspective. For some, a little bit of ribbon is better than no ribbon at all...

Well I will cherish my brown. Thank you for the unwarranted attention to my entry -- I have left myself plenty of room for improvement!

there actually is an unofficial Brown ribbon floating around. Whiterook has one or two. He may let you have one of his. It looks like this:


In something over 400 entries, I have yet to earn one of these (sob) but have come close.

Me, pull someone's leg about the brown? It took me YEARS to earn mine. I wear it like a badge of honor.
