So I started commenting - for the ones I scored low - what can I say - "were your eyes closed?"

I can't think of another challenge that my photo would score this high in. |

Dropping all the time with every vote. Now at 5.6 at 35 votes. Was at 6.1 after 18 votes.
Personally I love my entry and I feel that it should be in the 6.5 to 6.7 range. |

Nothing amazing but I am not too concerned as I had my eyes closed when I took the shot:)

Mine is also a 5.6 @ 35 votes. Just dropped .13 in one vote.
Oh well. I like the image.

I thought we were supposed to score these as if they followed the rules? Just because everything might be in focus, doesn't mean the photographer's eyes weren't closed. Cameras do auto-focus. :-/ |

Yeah, well I love my photo and feel it should be in the 9.4 range.
Instead it's floating at 6.2, damn trolls low voting my photo.

Get the popcorn out. I'm pretty sure you completely misinterpreted what Sophia said. |

You do realize that if you score low those entries where you "think" people didn't have their eyes closed, you are judging with a "guilty until proven innocent" policy?
I expect you didn't put a lot of thought into this, and that's cool :) But it seems a more ethical way to deal with your doubts would be to just not vote on some rather than thrash many honest people. It's really not that hard to get a nice image with autofocus, 100 frames, and advanced editing you know?

That's what I did and there were only 2 that I felt "cheated"... but I didn't vote at all and told them so. |

Auto focus is what I did...
Another interesting challenge would be to close you eyes and use MANUAL focus only. Wonder what we'd see in that challenge.

Ok -- some people are taking this seriously, and some people think it's a clever joke.
I'm thinking she was making a clever joke. :) |

Sarcasm is hard to detect, but that's how I took it, as sarcastic

1/2 press shutter release while manually focusing... BEEP = focused! |

I'm thinking "Who cares?" It's a whimsical challenge with an imaginary prize. The spirit was to go out and have some fun. I'd hate to see some of you people compete over something of any real relevance.
