If any of you were to guess, what score do you think would take a ribbon in this challenge?

would have worked for me. Someone just gave me a 2. Had a wonderful boost earlier in the evening, and that helped it come crashing back down again.

I also just got a 2.

Tell me about it. I knew my entry was marginal, but maybe it just sucks.

I've moved up a little in the last 24 hours, I always seem to lift a little towards the end of a challenge.

went up for awhile, going down again. Four 4's and a 7.

We should have stopped the voting earlier today...

well this was the first challenge I acually got around to voting for every entry and think the standard was pretty low in this challenge.
I struggled on a handful of photos to understand what people were trying to put across.
probably the first time I thought mine might get up there but even mine is scoring pretty low...makes you wonder what score will take it out... just over a 6 maybe?

I I noticed that. It took all of the votes last night to get me back above 5.6, and with one three, it dropped back down to where it was yesterday evening. Last challenge was more fun--it kept going steadily up. This one goes down, down down, bounce up! down down down, smaller bounce up... hopefully it ends on a bounce up!

It just screams tactical voting to me but hey maybe they just hate my pic lol

I know it's normal ops around here, but I sure wish the 1 voter would tell me what their criteria is that this entry deserves such a low vote.
 02/09/2009 01:38:17 PM · #96

I'm confused. Unless you shoot the middle of something, isn't everything else the end?

Your entry is crap? Your entry is so clever nobody else gets it? Your entry is a great idea full of wit and sophistication, but executed by a muppet? Everybody knows it's yours and they're all against you?

I hate it when I don't get comments and I get a low vote; makes me get really paranoid.
 02/09/2009 09:33:06 PM · #99
Well i cant understand why mines not in the high 5 even 6 cos i have givin 6-7's for things i wasn't even sure of and they werent a good photo (no offence to anyone)...pretty sad.
i gave a 4 guaranteed if it was a good use of the topic and depending on photo quality went from there...i have only entered 7 photos in DPC but ive even learn that its best not to try be clever and do something people dont get...keep it sooooooo simple and make sure its a good photo...i even did it in this challenge sooooooooo in your face with the topic and a great photo as all my 7 comments tell me but im in the mid 5's....i dont get it?
 02/10/2009 07:44:24 AM · #100
anyone want to trade comments after this is all said and done with? I'd really like to know why so many 4's on this one. If anyone has any input on the photograph or people's thought process, I'd be interested. (I've gotten 6 comments, but they're all favorable)
