Maybe I should just be emailing the governing body of this site, but would love to know how I hit 300 votes with more than a day to go, had over 315 with two hours to go, and had been watching so I know the average changed with every voting update, and then end up with 300 votes? What happened to the other 20 or so that had been registered for my photo? NOT UPSET, but do like to know why things like this happen!! TIA

Two things could have (and probably did) happen: 1. People who didn't hit the 20% for voting had their votes tossed. 2. The vote "scrubber" saw some suspicious voting patterns (all 1's, etc.) and tossed those out. It's pretty usual that you'll be minus a few votes at the end of the challenge. |

Thanks for the quick reply, and that is what I had been thinking, the 20% part anyway, but thought that a loss of 20 votes was a bit high just for that, even adding the voting pattern evictions seems a tad high, but this was my first challenge and I really appreciate that answer,
