You can say that again. The last 15 voters have been in an ugly mood :o\


Yup, not good, last 16 votes dropped my score by 0.03 and out of my personal top 10.


Not good - yup, definitely not good. Dropping... definitely dropping. I am just clicking and smiling in disbelief :-) LOL Time to go watch some football and turn this morning around

I know it is still early for this, but I am starting my prayer to the "vote scrubber gods" so that mine gets to them first and hopeflly gets listened to.

Oh great and mighty Scrubbers, Please take the time to look upon thy FS entry, scrub out the votes of the nasty lying trolls, and lead us not into the lower sixes, but into the magic land of 7's. In the name of the Scrubbers, I believe. Amen

And, O Scrubbers, if it be thy algorithm, take those scores that would have lowered basssman7's mighty 7, and apply them to my puny 4.7, thus lifting up your humble servant into the Purgatory of Five-ish-ness.

I'll be interested post challenge to see if anybody noticed what (for me) was the main reason I entered this particular image as I thought a couple of commenters might have mentioned it.

Well I tanked this weekend. No PB for me. Not really a decent score for the photo imo. Sort of a let down all the way around.

Sorry to hear that, I do Thank You for your comment on my shot! I have another comment that just blows me away. Nothing to do with likes or dislikes, Just a very COOL story. Hats off to you guys!!!

You have rated 144 of 430 images (33%) in this challenge.
You have commented on 102 images (24%) in this challenge.
You have given an average score of 6.0903.

The silliness and experimental commenting continues. I'm enjoying myself very much, even if my shot is tanking pretty badly (well, not that badly, it's staying at a mid 5.4). I'm hoping to at least get to 200 comments. That should be good no?

My first entry since July's FS... Looks like I'm completely out of the running for even top 10 now (darnit), but still not at all disappointed with my score:

Votes: 119
Views: 194
Avg Vote: 6.7059
Comments: 5

Maybe I can top my top 20 finish in a FS? That'd be nice. Doubtful, but I'm still hopeful.

Looking forward to seeing the winners!

Are the comments a progressive linking story - or just a bunch of short stories?

430 entries--seems like we would have more than 100ish votes by now....
 10/05/2008 12:48:13 AM · #420
I have 116 now. The last 30 or so have been 6 or under. That sucks.

Neither. Every photo I look at gives me some kind of thought or emotional reaction, and I turn that into one of:

A) A story
B) A joke of some sort relating to the photo
C) Some silly anecdote, relating to the photo

Each and every one is completely separate and dependant on the shot as it comes up to vote, and I vote using my usual scale, which is completely independent of the comment I give it.

Unfortunately, some shots simply don't give me any kind of real thought or reaction at the time, so I skip them, but my hope is that I can get to as many as I can before Tuesday, without getting too dry :)

Well yea for me - I got a story on mine - so I am thankful you felt something. I have commented on such a comparatively small percentage of shots and after experiencing one your comments I don't know how you are doing it - but you sure are making people smile. So, worth the effort IMO.

Someone wrote earlier (in either this thread or another) that night time voters (for us US-PST time zone) seem to vote a lot lower and I believe it - once again my shot rose throughout the day only to get sucked back down at night.

Funny - I'm actually finding quite the opposite for this challenge.

I also find it the opposite. My score always plummets during the US waking hours. And picks up again during the US sleeping hours :)
