Basically, the awarder needs to add the award as a comment for me to pick it up. I don't scrape the posthumous thread. So some examples where the MUAIMHO are given here, but not in comments are not captured by me. Same with jury'd ones. a specific user needs to leave a comment on an image with a specific image. It won't get it all, but it gets 90% there I reckon.

Ok. Sounds like you're doing web scraping (Python probably) and looking for specific (your own library based numeric image ref to 'bling' images) items, and only walking the scraper thru challenge entries - not forum threads. Sound about right?

Yep - more or less.

I used to give asigmatic out in comments, see for example

I was thinking about the asigmatic award the other day -- I was wondering if I would have received it for Feast challenge

It's actually the standard deviation of the votes that is used.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_deviation

It's not a perfect metric for the purpose, but it is reasonably reasonable for the purpose.

Yup -- I know. I just figured with that wide of a spread the standard deviation would be rather wide. And it was. :)

(I just didn't have the patience to do the StDev myself.

Hmm. I used to update my profile page, it's been years since I've added any 'bling' but I did have 5 'undie' awards listed. On your updated website I'm only showing 1. ???

I think there may be a couple of 'bling' types not represented also. For example, this one ==> . vlado used to post these as a piggyback to the Posthumous Ribbon thread.

Posthumous Art (juried) Ribbons:




Don has a few unique 'bling' awards on his profile page, and I have a couple as well, that aren't represented in the collection of awarders on the updated website.

Not sure if this is helpful info or not. Apologies if it comes across as finding issues, etc. Not meant that way.

ETA - more findings. Strange, the chromeydome and vlado 'Awarders' are on your list, but the ones I've rec'd from them aren't listed. ???


Okay. Note to self - go through all of the posthumous threads and sort out which images I didn't comment on.
