Three Exclusive Challenges - DPChallenge Forums

06/14/2007 07:51:29 PM · #1

What about having more than 2 exclusive challenges? I'm hoping to have less images to vote on.

Maybe even more than one member challenge each week too.

Maybe also having some challenges that limit to the first 100 entered. Speed challenge like.

And more invitationals based on certain levels of constructive site participation.

Is this the point where we cause the thread to explode by asking for a Master's Challenge?

Second that. Perhaps an "Average Score between . . . " system for one week only, not for all time, just for a change.

Even before I won my first ribbon I was against this. It cheapens the accomplishment. Wouldn't you rather win one while beating Scalvert, De Sousa and others like that? I know I never get tired of looking at the Acronym results and seeing De Sousa several places behind me. Although he kind of got screwed with some DNMCs otherwise he'd had taken the blue but I try to forget that. :P

Sounds like a junior varsity consolation prize to me. Kinda like the little leagues where everyone takes home a trophy. Yuck. A ribbon would have much more value to me if it was won against the big dogs.

I agree. if i ever win (shut up it could happen) I want to beat the best. I want to know that at least in that challenge i was better than the ribbon hogs. Oh and I want kiwiness and Joey and Dax to submit to it too. I mean if i am gonna dream then it might as well be a good one.

BTW the no ribbon challenge has been done before.

no ribbon challenge

for what it is worth two of the ribboners went on to win more ribbons
