If DP asks early for validation do you find out if it's DQ'd before the results so it can be deleted or once the contest is over?

I'm not clear on your question. DQ'd photos are not "deleted" except for those for which a "self-DQ" is requested, and that cannot be for a rules violation.

DQ`d photos go to the sinbin at the bottom of the pile.. Its the page most people check after checking out the top ten - we all go there to see who got DQ`d and see who came last..

You all know its true!

My photo might be in violation of basic editing rules. DPC asked me for the original to be reviewed. So if it is in violation do they let you know prior to the results or do you find out if it was in violation after the challenge.

It's like looking at a list of John's who were caught with hookers.

As I remember, you get an email notifying you of a DQ, and it is removed from the voting pool immediately.

I just took a look -- your photo is still in the evaluation/discussion/voting stage by the SC. Sometimes it can take a while, especially if the rule in question is one requiring a subjective judgement.

Oh I see. Damn I really wanted to stay away from DQs this time around. Oh well, thanks for the info General.

With the John's list we look and wonder "Wow, he cheated with THAT?"

With the "sin bin" we wonder "wow, he cheated to get THAT?"
