What I've found with the smile challenge is that there are only 10 or possibly 11 images that speak "why" the person is smiling. The rest of the entries are just smiles with no story. Perhaps that's all that is needed to DMC but I feel the essence of story telling is to include as much "story" as you can especially where candid photography is concerned.

Having said this mine is at 5.6 and fluctuating.

Tell me where in the challenge title does it say anything about there having to be a story or some reason why the person is smiling?

... and where does it say that it needs to be "candid photography".

Here's the challenge description:
"From the grin to the laughing smile, a smile is one emotion that photographers have sought to capture since the early days of photography. Playing to the phrase "smile for the camera", take a picture of a person or persons that best captures this emotion."

:-D
