100 vote check in. Apparently the last couple voters were not fans. Was 5.8 at 98, now:

Never seen an entry go steadily down like this before. Started around 5.9 and just slowly, slowly, slowly, bottomed out at 5.4 or so. Usually the scores go up and down. Not this one.

And 9 lovely comments! So happy with this! :D


Congratulations! Hope you will get a ribbon... :)


Aw thank you! :) If I did... I would be in disbelief lol. I've never even gotten top 10 in a challenge.


Then it is about time and your score certainly suggests that you will at the very least be in the top 10....just believe! It will happen... :)


Aw thank you! :))

They exist because we need to believe in them. Without them, we'd have to accept the reality that lots and LOTS of people don't particularly care for our images, and that's a rude pill to swallow...


I shouldn't be reading the forums before my 2nd cup of coffee this morning. This is deep :-). But sort of like what I used to tell my kids about Santa: if you believe in him, he brings you presents, but if you don't, your parents step in and do it. Choose your reality!

Oh, and to stay mildly on topic, I have two comments, and neither one says DNMC. Score is 5.7ish. This meets my low expectation of success in this challenge so I don't have to believe in trolls today LOL.

haha - that just seems like a big dip, but maybe not. You would think that for the ones that go down you would have ones going up, but that doesn't seem to be the case. It probably that the bunch of people that vote at first are optimistic non-procrastinators and the folks that wake up in the morning and vote and into the week are your realists.

So if I say I don't believe in trolls, does one cease to exist? (kinda like fairies?)


No, of course not! :) But one might just stop seeing things that are not there?! Hmmm....

The 1-3 votes I don't mind, it is the 5's that I hate :)

For me, it is anything below a 7, and then again, 7s seem a little low....


Yeah don't you hate it when a 7 brings your score down. I feel so sorry for you.....lol

Mines a tiny violin, thanks to an awesome comment from a recent ribbon winner, who bumped me up!

Man - I was feeling so assured by blaming the trolls for my pitiful scores, and now you had to ruin it... :-P
