Not likely to change much from this in the last 35 minutes. Sadly in the last 5 days 70 votes, 2 comments, over 100 views and no one has guessed what my image is. Does that make me the puzzle king??? hehe Only in my minds eye ;) The one fav. is greatly appreciated.

Wow, your score may be crap but you sure do have a ton of comments. Way to go.

Doing pretty good.

I finally voted on all and bumped where need be. My lowest vote was a 5. I voted on 3 tens. Will be interesting to see if the ones I think are the top three end up on the front page. Good luck to all.

You know, the scores reported in this thread are pretty low. Usually there are at least a handful of 6.5-7.0 scores reported but I don't see those. It never fails though, when we see the final results, the winner will still be a 7.3. Maybe I'm wrong about that, but I figure in a 262 entry challenge we gotta have a couple 7+ scores going on.

Well after some time in the high 4's, it finally back into the 5's :D.

I'm happy with that number considering my first image. Guess we gotta start somewhere...

I was a 5.9(?) first thing this morning and just dropped to a 5.82

Looks like for every 9 or 10 someone is walzing around giving out a 1 and 2. ;P

Back to the drawing board....really wish the ones who scored my shot low would comment though. Only guess and good comments. Two comments said that it was really a puzzle though.

Just happened to be fooling around with a spreadsheet of results a week ago. I don't have free studies separated from topical challenges.


Thanks for the interesting info. I did find the challenge history page but Judi, where did you find the stats for this current challenge?

OOp. Never mind. I found it.

[quote=Damzel] To each there own on what they think is good or touches them or intrigues them...I give plenty of high scores, but as I have found on here, we all have a very different points of view on what is good, some vote on Talent some on Skill. But thank you for taking the time to point it out that my average scoring is so low compared to everyone else. I guess this just seemed like a slam... but thanks a million...lol ALL THOUGHTS WELCOME[quote=Damzel]

It was not really meant as a slam. I was just pointing out that for someone who feels the average shot here on dpc is worth a 4.16, then using that same scale for your own work would make your score of just over 5 a pretty darn good image, so that should make you happy.

You must have made a pretty good image if someone can't figure out how you did it and thought it worth challenging.
