With only a little over an hour left, my Still Life entry is beating my average by a little under .5 so i think I'm safe. My entry for week 2 is in Evening but I'm not sure how it's going to do. At least I like this one, unlike my Fallen entry. :)

Good luck in round 2 y'all!

Ok, I have an entry in evening. Not sure how it will do though. Wouldn't take much to beat my average, but you never know.
08/05/2008 11:12:28 PM · #529
I have posted a morning entry. I don't think it will meet my average, but it's in!

ETA: Good luck everybody!

If you Aussies would just be content to be mediocre like the rest of us, you too could have a low average and stay in the challenge a little longer :-)~

MAX!

Week 2: Morning II

My prediction: Top 20 or bottom 20, I'll be surprised if it's anywhere in between.

Good luck! I'll be interested to see if anyone can top judi or dr_toto. Which reminds me, is it bad form to pimp medical students in the forums?

I didn't submit anything in FS even though I nominated it... so I assume I'm out, and even if you take my "Still Life" entry, it is WELL below my average, so I'd still be out... if by some small miracle my "Still Life" entry manages to go from 4.3 to 5.3 in the next 35 minutes, then I'm happy to have my "Evening" entry count in the next round... but really, who am I trying to kid.

Good luck everyone with the rest of the challenge. I will be following with great interest.

Just uploaded mine. I doubt it will be good enough though.
08/05/2008 11:53:53 PM · #536
well, against my better judgement, I've entered "morning" ... if, by some miracle, I survive til week 2 ... I'm sure to get hammered with this entry ...
08/06/2008 12:12:26 AM · #537
well it looks like i survived week one, on to the next good luck to all!
08/06/2008 01:45:46 AM · #538
Is there some sort of prize for having your little moving average sliding ever so consistently in the negative direction every time you look despite massive amounts of challenges entered? If so, I want to compete for that. :-)
08/06/2008 01:52:07 AM · #539
The top of the morning to yous all and I'm 6 votes in and running average +
08/06/2008 01:53:40 AM · #540
I shan't make it to week 3 I can tell you that now.
08/06/2008 02:05:22 AM · #541
It's over! What a shame I was having such a great time. Sign me up for the next one.

Being on holiday screwed me all up. Oh well I'll be watching to see who wins this one.

Good luck to all the remaing contestants.

Unfortunately me too, no shot for week 2 as have been out of the country and not had time which is a shame as my FS will beat my average

Im in Evening after just scraping through with my still life, happy to say my evening score is well above my average.

OK I'm officially stupid!... I'm in FALLEN for this tourney and EVENING for the Olympics..
Anyway, my FALLEN is at 6.4 so well above my average again... still happy

Well I'm shaping up to be one of the ones that has one score close to a PB, and FS over my average, and the one I chose for the tourney, tanking a long way below average. Doooohhh! It's going to be a long week.
08/06/2008 05:25:17 AM · #545
Yay! I made it to week 2! I also somehow managed to get two challenges in a row in the top 10. Never saw that coming! :)

I'll take the pass, but I wanna be honest, too.

It's at 6.2, so I'm not really sweating it, but.....

Thanks for your honesty, but I must have missed that one ...

I just went back (quickly) through the old posts and also checked my PMs and couldn't find anything from you. If you can direct me to your post I'll change it ... like you say, may not matter in the end, but would rather be accurate if we can!

Well....I couldn't find it in an old post, and I didn't Cc myself if I sent it in a PM, so, I guess it doesn't matter.

O what a beautiful morning - a whopping 0.6893 over average...
08/06/2008 06:57:42 AM · #548
Looks like it'll be the end of days for me......

My Evening score is about .3 under my average, and I don't see it going up much.

I just couldn't get a shot I was really happy with, but I knew I had to enter something or bomb out by default.

Oh well.....it was fun.
08/06/2008 07:39:09 AM · #549
I had high hopes for my Morning shot but its currently .9 below my average!

FF for my last minute Fallen entry that will hopefully remain 0.3 above my current average (and, my Morning shot will bring my average down for week 3 lol).

Ditto, my morning entry isn't one I'm excited about (currently .1 below average), but just in case my free study rebounds and I make it to week 2 I figured I needed something instead of being knocked out for no entry ...
