| Thanks to those who liked it. I can see now that it suffered for not meeting the challenge well enough. |

Has DPC ever considered changing how the scoring works? I used to run a digital picture challenge for the Canon PowerShot Group back when I was in university. We started with a score out of 10, but given the low number of voters, results could really be skewed. There were some issues as well with voters not considering the challenge topic, etc. Eventually we landed on having multiple scoring: meets the challenge, technical and overall (there may have been another, I can't remember). Then the scores were combined using a weighted average with priority given to meets the challenge.
From what I read there is no desire to make this site mobile-friendly and you want users to spend time viewing the images on their PCs. So it wouldn't add much time to the user experience when voting. Food for thought. |
At the beginning of the digital camera age I belonged to an online photo contest group that was popular at the time. All voting was done by a panel of judges (I donĂ¢€™t remember how many, maybe 5 or 6) who could not submit a photo during the month that they were judging the photos. All or some of the judges were volunteers/selected from the photo group. New judges were selected every month, so other members of the group got a chance to be part of selecting the contest winners. I thought it was an interesting setup. I donĂ¢€™t remember the name of the group. More food for thought. |
