Out of curiousity, I decided to keep track of my score throughout the week. The last number voters shown before the deadline and after the deadline surprisingly fell from 208 to 202. What happened to the other 6 voters?
If these voters were excluded due to the 20% rule then can the administrator modify the tracking software so that each voting session must cover 20% otherwise the whole lot is rejected. Or reduce the minimum to 10-15% each session?

Though I am not 100% positive but those votes could also be from people who just vote 1s for every photo. |

Something else strange is happening with my statistics too. My statistics haven't updated yet. I'm still only showing I have completed 6 challenges when I have actually completed 8 and none of the other numbers (Average Vote Cast, Average Vote Received, Etc.) were updated either. I thought that usually took place at the same time the challenges changed?
Don't know if these things could be related in any way or not.
Thanks!

The change in the number of voters is definitely a result of the clean-up script. This is run at the end of each voting period, and attaempts to eliminate odd patterns of voting -- such as a someone who votes all "1s" across the board.
As for the number of challenges, do remember that the current challenge (the ones being voted on now) are not shown on your stats until voting is completed.

Since my record is clean, it is easy to see the difference. Wackybill is right. Not all the statisitcs were updated. I have entered 2 challenges but the stat remains unchanged as per the first challenge entered, "Cliches".
With regard, Jak's suggestion of a clean up script, I hope that's true and it covers not just the 1's. |

I just looked at your stats and it mentions two challenges: Cliche and Yellow.
Looks OK to me.

Yeah, my stats are the same way. The LOVE challenge has not been registered... My stats say I have entered 9 challenges but I have 10 images. Dave |

limkinglok and wackybill are right. I have entered four challenges - Cliches, Where's Waldo, Yellow and Despair - which means my stats should show 3 challenges entered (Despair excluded as the voting is still in progress), but it shows only 2 entered. The other stats are also unchanged from last week.

My statistics are also wrong. They say I have entered 23 challenges, when in fact I have 25. And including the one currently in voting, they are 26.
In the older version, the statistics counted also the current challenge. I liked that, because I could see if my friends submited or not a picture for the current challenge.
Also the statistics for the comments are wrong. I've seen them go back and forth. I think I discovered that every time you submit a new picture, your received comments stat decreases by one. I've seen it with my comments, and with a friend's that just submited his first picture, it said -1 comments.

Yeah, my stats haven't been updated for a few weeks, either. (I noticed this, cause I've been waiting for my comparatively better scores from the last two challenges to make up for my dog 4.1 entry in the square challenge on my "Average Vote Received"!) |

Mine as well, I have 40 images and it only states 37 challenges entered. Interesting! |
