Mine's been going up and down...but I'm making a little bit more headway upwards.
A favorite, too. Makes it all worthwhile. :)

Yakatme looks like we're neck-and-neck. I went from 6.82 to 6.78 overnight. Lots of great comments. No faves, though.

Yep. We sure are but you're due for an upswing again since it's not likely at this point that you'll continue a downtrend.

Marjo and

wildcard are in our neighborhood also. I was talking to someone via PM who is over a 7 though and their entry is not the one that I thought was going to take top place.

There are a lot of good entries in this unusual challenge and it will be very interesting to see the results. I think there will be a lot people with personal bests when it's over.

Well, naturally! You thought my entry was going to take top place! LOL :-)
Congrats on the faves, BTW!

Edit to add: and a wish list! That's awesome work!

I am beginning to wonder why the hell I even bother!! Not a high scoring shot, but 4.1?? WTF! Either the voters are crap, or I am?? Sooner this 30D is sold, the better. Maybe I will forget challenges and buy a P&S for family snaps.

$25 is not much, but I can be humilated for far less!

Well, it has been sold. Everything else is on eBay.

By the end of next week I should have a Pentax K200D with a couple of lenses. Hopefully will be able to get the battery grip from the US as well.

Yes, the wishlist is an unexpected surprise. It always feel good to know that someone is willing to part with their money for something that you created.

Yes, it's happened a couple of times. I don't think there has ever been a tie for first but I remember tie for second. It takes a couple of days for SC to sort it out so that the front page shows two red ribbons because the programming gives a yellow ribbon to one of the two second place finishers.

now I would -love- to see a challenge with ties for all three places... I think all the ribbon winners should have 1 challenge against eachother :) while us non-ribbon winners have 1 challenge against eachother i think it would be interesting ;) :) *LOL*

since you're loving this teetertottering-score stuffs - you'll be even more excited to see the scores jump on the last day of voting... when most people vote- close to midnight! *L* :) -- I'm just hoping the next challenge will hurryup and get here! *LOL* :) [/quote]
