I won't be continuing either. I have lost my inspiration and can't seem to make myself shoot for challenges anymore. thanks all for the great challenge entries for our team.

BTW Elvis was the captain so if you guys continue you'll need a new one.

I will most likely be out as well. I direct our high school theatre troupe - auditions are in January with rehearsals running three to four nights a week (and some weekends)until the performance in early March. I'm not sure I will have the extra time (or energy).

This has be great! I feel our team did some good work and we should be proud of our efforts!! Thanks guys!

BTW - great score going in Dirt jaded_youth!!! wohooo!!

well, I did horrible in Light on White and then skipped Dirt. My pet Portrait is at 6.4364 right now. I had really hoped to be a better asset for the team, but with just having moved here and buying a house I guess I stretched myself too thin. Now we're down to 5 1/2 hours of daylight so I will be skipping WPL4.

Well, I have a 5.6 in pets right now. And my Bond shot was a 5.4...and I wno't be doing the next WPL either.

When you suck like I do and none of your entries are even used, it feels kind of worthless.

I won't be participating in the next one either (not that I participated much this time...& I'm sorry about that). I think I submitted four times & hated every entry. On two other challenges, my model didn't show once & I couldn't find the props I wanted for the other.

I would like to do this again at some point. Perhaps by WPL5 or 6. Maybe by then we'll be recharged & ready to get the band back together.

ok everyone - how are your pet scores looking? Tonight's the night and hopefully we'll do well. Right now I have a 6.838. I had hoped for a 7 - there's still time so maybe I'll get a boost at the end. Starting to feel like the impossible dream here at DPC lately though.

Sweet score ShutterPug!!!

I submitted to For Sale and am doing aweful. I have only had two 4.XX scores my entire time here and will most likey add my third tonight :( I could deffinately use a boost myself! I had a 6.0ish in Dirt that will cancel this one out.

my pet score is mediocre but my 6.8 in dirt should help us.

While not a single one of my challenge entries counted for my team, I was the 6th highest difference in beginning/ending averages.

And we would have beaten 8 of the teams in WPL for the trip to the semis.

I'm probably nuts, but I'm actually thinking I would like to keep with the Mad Shutters for WPL4. Are any of our team members thinking it over?

I cannot be team captain though - absolutely not. I don't have the first clue what all to do, and also don't have the time. I barely have the time and/or motivation to shoot. My lack of motivation is what has me thinking of doing this again as if I am not feeling the obligation to the team I may end up not shooting at all.

I started thinking the same thing. that maybe I need the motivation to shoot seeing I havent entered anything in over a week now because WPL is over. but I went with a different team since this one is dead. That may be the way to go for you too. Good luck! :)

I've been regretting my decision to take a break. I would find time to shoot - If we can get some members I would be interested in participating.
