just wondering, seems to be the trend with mine anyhow.

Depends on which time in the challenge the troll voters come out. It seems they vote in waves. ;)

They must not have voted yet, because my score is still cimbing... :)

| I started out good for the first 6 votes, then got hammered for the next few hours and now I'm climbing back up. After 25 votes I was very low, now after 59 I am back up to not too bad. The first few hours always seem the worst, I really shouldn’t look at the votes at all until at least 24 hours have gone by. |

| See that my votes are climbing now and for me it sometimes seems to be a trend. But it´s not a rule and for me it seems that the final results are pretty similar to the status aftur 50-100 votes. |

My scores tend to be in a U curve..
Start good at first, then they go low and then they go up again. |

Noticed that too. As I said above: "there is no rule" |

I suppose I can take a certain amount of blame for that, though I don't consider myself a troll. My tactic in voting is to go through all of them (yes all) and vote in the range of 4-7 (though certainly some are exceptional and get voted very high right away). Then the next day, I'll look at all the thumbnails and resort them, teasing a few more high ones up and taking a few down. So I suppose it's possible that you might not get any additional votes during that time, but your score could change radically if others do as I am.
Certainly looking at the early voting when only about 20% of the votes (and not final ones at that) is not always a good indication of how the rest of the week will go.
I know for the last one I started out rather high and fell a full point by the end. Sigh. I think I'll do better at this one, I'm learning so much already. |

This is the frist challenge where I have gone up 1/2 point from the beginning to now. Am used to dropping, dropping, dropping. Still, at 5.2 I am no position to 'ribbon', but if the trend continues of 1/2 point increase each day...LOL

| My scores almost always start, continue, and end within a .5 variation from the start of scoring. Some days it swings a little high, someday a little low. Mine started at 4.6, and I'll be it will finish at 4.4 (a new personal best for a bad shot :) |
