You took the words right out of my mouth! Mine did the normal overnight plunge too and after dragging myself out of bed after 4 hours of sleep, I think I'm going to attempt the "to bed early" thing. These scores are just not worth my loss of beauty sleep!

This is only my second challenge I have entered and it was a bit of a last minute thing as I didnt have a chance to take it in the week! As long as it stays over 5 Im not going to be depressed - its all a learning experience :)

Another rollercoaster of scoring, I wonder why the bad scores seem to come in spells seems very strange...

probably a class scoring all at once would be my best guess

Looks like this image will bump me out of the above average side tourney. Have a 5.07. Ouch. Need a 5.45 or something to stay in. BOOOOO.

It usually seems to go that way for me, the bulk of the high votes and low votes tend to come in groups. I believe it has to do with different parts of the world (and hence, people with similar attitudes and tastes) being in voting hours. For instance, my scores usually tend to climb on the first day of voting, as North America passes through the lunch hours. That's just a pet theory, however.

That's a pretty drastic drop.. I don't keep track as votes come in, but that seems like it would have to be ALOT of VERY low scores to knock it down that much so fast?? Am I wrong??

Actually I wanted to know this myself so asked my wife who is pretty good with maths and she says the 18 additional votes each gave you an average score of 4.3 so not as low as you (or I) might have initially thought?

after voting i wouldn't be surprised to see this as one of the lowest averages we've seen in a long time.
pretty uninspiring stuff out there

I guess I assumed they must be 1's and 2's. Thank's Mark.. and thank your wife too! That still stings though..that's a heck of a drop.. think I'll quit looking for a while. :(

soo i know i have some very low scores since my score has dropped to a 4.7 already what I'd like to know from those low-scorers is some feedback as to -why- they think so different from the 6's and 5's I received in the start of voting... I encourage those who gave out lower scores to take the time to comment on anything 4 and under - it would be courteous and appreciated

And there is the problem. Everybody wants feedback but few want to leave those comments. I think the 80/20 rule applies here. I challenge everyone who is frustrated by lack of feedback to leave comments on at least half of what they vote on. If you comment on 100% of the challenge, make sure to post it in the 100% comments club, and Judi will provide you some bling for your profile page!

And just so you know I'm not throwing stones at glass houses:

That's some impressive stats right there Yospiff!, I will try and comment more although I currently comment on any score of 3 or more less anyway and also on my top 3 and also anything that is glaringly reducing my given score.

its ok I'll wait till after the challenge is over for more feedback/comments - I'm mostly interested in the opinions of those voting low and why (IE: I wouldn't give a 4 or under without some feedback) -- 5+ I kind of figure explains itself and can get feedback later on;
