I think for some of us, a blue ribbon is not a very realistic goal right now. A "meaningless number" could be a personal goal that is attainable while we are developing our skills. Once that is achieved, then maybe a ribbon would be something to strive for.

I haven't been able to make it past 20th place yet. Its a current goal though. Its interesting to see what scores corresponded to what place. My highest score of 6.238 only garnered me a 31st place, but it was also out of 610 entries so I'm particularly happy with that.


6.075 20/294 94%


5.938 26/157 84%


6.183 27/330 92%


6.238 31/610 95%

Sorry, Tim, you don't qualify. You've got a blue ribbon. This is a study of folks who have NEVER won a ribbon :)

6.216 6/153 97% Pride challenge

This was a fairly low scoring challenge due to much controversy regarding what 'pride' really means to people.

13th place - 6.510




06/15/2006 10:40:09 AM · #65

12th out of 201.

I've not won a ribbon. Best I seem to be able to do is lucky 13 - I have two of those, and a 14th place. My second highest score, though, was 24th at 88%, due to it being in a high-scoring challenge (Tribute), and it's still one of my favorites, both as far as my own picture and the challenge.

Best score, second best percentile to date:
6.716, 13/267, 95%


Second best score:
6.537, 24/188, 88%


The other 13th place:
6.147, 13/183, 93%


And the 14th place, with the highest percentile:
6.378, 14/433, 97%

The lowest Blue was 6.419 in the Affluence challenge. Finding the lowest yellow is more difficult

Until a couple weeks ago, I was sort of in the same boat as GeneralE.
My best numerical ranking is 21 (out of 108, 81%) in the original "On the Road" challenge (June, 2002).


My best percentage ranking is 86% (41/279) in Archetecture III (last month).
My best score is the same shot with a 6.205.


Until then, I had 83% (55/325 with a 5.789) and different best score of 6.168 (185/829, 78%) (each with 1 favorite).

I have been secretly throwing out those scores when they have been winners.
