I love that it is so close...it will likely come down to the vote scrubbing at the end!

Good luck to you. :)

Remember....if you beat me....I get the whips out!!!!!

If (when) I beat you, you will become completely submissive to me. ;)

Dream on...now go and get your Silence/Sound challenge entries. LOL!

I am sure you will catch up...to me at least. Judi (I hate to say it) is in another class altogether.

Kat - sorry to hear that - especially so late in the week : (

My entry arrived - dropped.26 - parked . . .

But hey - the commenters apparenty think it should be near the top, so if I can just stick with their votes I'll be fine :- )

I'm so miffed about my score right now I almost want to pull an Oprah.

I'll come running into the Best Of challenge and start clicking and screaming, "You get a 10! You get a 10! You get a 10! EVERYBODY GETS A 10!!!"

And the audience will all clap and cheer and cry and love me.

And then I'll go put on 30 pounds.

(man, why do I always have to go too far?)

In a Best of? Probably not. Aim for Top 50, and then be pleasantly surprised.

Sorry to be the bringer of bad news...but last year a 6.3 would have given you 91st place! And that was with less entries then this year.

I had a good image last year that finished at 6.81 and it was only 21st.

So if last year was a good indicator, your 6.3 will be good for top 100. Depressing isn't it?

Will I jinx it. I don't know. But it's last day of voting, with trolls away on last day and normal pattern that score rise on last day, I will take my chances.

A couple of observations... this is easily the best challenge that I've had the pleasure of scoring, so many absolutely amazing shots, I rarely give out 8's and 9's but there have been plenty of them. Second, I've never seen my score move so little, I was at 6.3 at 20 votes and my standard deviation has been less than .05...
