Just wondering -- I didn't notice a bump before the last challenge results were posted. Was anyone else bumped and I just missed it? Or are we not doing that anymore?

Are you talking about the script that checks for voting consistency and throws out bad votes?

In the verbose words of jmsetzler: "yuh"

I don't know about the Open Challenge, but I'd expect much less in the way of vote "adjustments" for the members challenge, since the program is searching for weird voting patterns (like all 1's & 2's except for a couple of high scores) or instances where the voter didn't vote for at least 20% of the entries.

i didnt expect a bump on member's challenge because i didnt think there were going to be too many gratuitous 'hate votes'.

it was like a 'what you see is what you're gonna get' kind of deal.

Still seemed to be a few entries with a '1' vote on the members challenge.

the vote cleanup does not remove all of the 1 votes... there will be some leftover in many cases...

the vote cleanup doesnt remove all the 1's.

what it does is look for patterns where someone has voted a significantly large percentage of pictures all 1's or all 10's or other number..

if you vote rationally, you can still give 1's.
