well I had already planned on scoring a 6.8 the first week, so I guess you'll have to top that.

I think I am going to sneak up from behind and steal it in the final week in my battle. :) My advert shot is still rising in score. (finally)

I have admitted defeat for the month of January as I do not have another entry in voting. Karmat has given me my public humiliation and it will be in effect for the entire month of February.

Oh well, next month is another month :-)

I also admit defeat for January, as i don't have one in voting, Jeff hasn't given me my humiliation yet though.

Well good luck on your humiliation. Karmat was not hard on me, in fact her decision was that I replace my profile photo with my high school graduation photo. OMG I do not want to tell you how old that pic is :-D

I was actually quite a hottie back in the day.

lol, yeah Jeff seems nice enough, as long as I don't have to do something insane I'll be fine, I have good enough self esteem to take anything.

Oh, I get to pick something? Hmmm ... can it be related to a challenge?

I don't think it matters as long as I put it up on my profile for the next month.

Here is what I am considering for Rooster's profile pic. ;) [thumb]644760[/thumb]

What do you think?

Cute. But unless you plan to win all 12 months, be prepared sometime later in the year to have a sign in your profile made by Rooster featuring a chicken ("I got plucked by Rooster" comes to mind). Too bad the rest of us do not have names that are amenable to this sort of a thing.

Well of course I plan on winning all 12 months! Don't we all? LOL

I am sure I will get a good plucking in february challenges... but it is all in fun, so it's all good. :)

Working on it... sorry for the delay.

ETA: DPC has been a little querky for me lately... not sure if it's probs with the site. Has anyone else had problems?

Nope. But, I'm on dial up, so what may appear to me to be "normal" may very well be quirky to others. Nobody has asked in a ticket about it though.

I'm not in bread or panning this week. Barbara?

There wasn't much change from last week except for basssman7's last minute comeback from behind to take the lead in his competition. It looks like he has already invoked his punishment on poor Rooster. Winners are welcome to dole out suitable punishment at will. I suppose I'll have to take mine as well. Remember that the loser has to post a profile picture mandated by the winning opponent for the remainder of February's competition time. I caution the winners to not be too tough on their opponents because you never know when the tables will be turned (there are still 11 months to go).

Translated: Please be kind to me. I couldn't meet the high expectations that your overwhelming photographic prowess established. I am at your mercy. Remember this servant when you issue the edict for my profile pic.

Hahaha... you funny girl

It's not like that at all, just fair warning to the "Winners" for when us lowly "Followers" plan our dominance and unleash our full aresenal of photographic ability. We'll be inclined to show mercy on those who were kind to use.

Thank you for the update. :)

Jen, congratulations (again) on your top ten finish in "eyes". Wonderful shot.

Looks like you completely demolished me in January and have a pretty good
start for Feb. I guess its time to step things up.

Does anyone here have any graphic design talents? Yanko is making some real neat banners and jerseys for the DPC Olympics. It would be nice to have some sort of emblem for the Great '08 Motivate Debate that we could stick on our profile, seeing as this is a year-long event.

Also congrats to Budya for her January victory -- stomped me by 0.01 point -- guess it is time to stop clowning around and get serious in February.
