Just a thought


Do they actually sell stuffed monkeys in a cage at the zoo?

I guess you had to take your imagination with you when you went - just like any other challenge... ;-P j/k

I just wanted to say that I didn't enter the Zoo challenge, but ya'll did a fantastic job. The images were asolutely gorgeous, I wanna especially tip my hat to Cutter, Xion, and Armelle, because these are the images that caught my attention most. No disrespect to the winners, terrific shots as well.text

You do. Ribbon or not, a high score deserves praise. I was biting my lip the whole time. I mentioned the large number of 6+ scores a few times to keep you from getting your hopes up, but 6.9 is certainly in ribbon territory and I only knew of one score better than that. Funny thing is, when Micknewton posted his hoax stats, it was almost identical to what I really had (though I already had a few more comments and faves).

Congrats on your personal best!

lol i was just kidding about that comment, there needs to be a [/sarcasm] button at the top

anyway thanks for the great comment on my entry, and what does ho-hum mean?
btw. It was expensive glass

Well, it's interpreted by some as bragging to do that...and most of the folks who consistently score in that ribbon range are humble and wish to still be perceived as such. Plus, some still like the element of surprise. Don't be upset...else you might be perceived as a sore loser or something. Be thrilled with your score and placement. I know I am!!! :)

This may finish with a series coming down from 7.5 due to the high amount of quality shots.

I bet a Top 30 will be tough with all these 6 scores. Iceland is suspiciously quiet these days and then WHAMMMM! <<<7.Something!!!>>>

Oh yeah...and I'm not to far away from a personal best. I'll need to vibe some high, last minute scores my way.

I knew this was a very high scoring challenge. For good reason -- there are so many awesome pictures!!! My score right now is at 6.6167, and it fluctuates back and forth all the way up to 6.64. . .but I'm betting it won't even be in the top 30 with all these plus 6 scores. That's okay tho. . .I'm never going to complain about a 6.6 score :)
