I wondered about that, I did check,I think there was only 1 DQ and I didn't vote on it, so my percentage should've gone up slightly.

Thanks

Paul

Since this isn't a current challenge I'm continuing this discussion here.

I've just finished this month's long comment series. Not all (but most) of the 74 were long comments, I did a few shorter comments on some of those I scored to ensure my scores for the others I commented on counted.

It took me way longer to do the comments this month but this is by far the highest average score I've given in a challenge. I am really surprised that one or two people, including those whose work I love, felt that this FS offering wasn't up to much - I thought there was some truly exceptional work.

I'm feeling a bit silly now. Having spent a lot of time looking at these images and offering some very considered scores, it seems my votes have been scrubbed. I voted on enough for them to qualify, my bar turned blue. My average was high but I thought scrubbing was to get rid of troll and anti-troll voting. I think I offered a strong rationale for all of the scores I offered.

I can still see the votes I gave by ordering 'by my vote' but I get no red bars for any if the images I have checked.

Given that I invested about 10-12 hours looking, thinking, commenting and voting, I feel a little robbed.

Can anybody shed some light on this for me?

You need to vote on 20% of the images. There were 400 images in this FS. You needed to vote on a minimum of 80 images. If you did and 1 or 2 of them got removed or DQéd...then your percentage would be less than 20%. Therefore you need to ensure you vote on at least 25%. On 400 images...that is 100 images. Over 20 of those images would need to be DQéd for your votes to be scrubbed.

BUT!!!

If you voted 25% in a challenge of 100 images....that means you would have to vote on 25 images. If 6 of those images were DQéd, then your votes would be scrubbed.

I really shouldn't be complaining either, I am grateful to have a 6+ in the freestudy. But, I really liked the 6+ a bunch I had a couple of days ago.

It's been that way for me the last two days. First five it goes up, last two it free falls. Hard to figure.


I guess I really shouldn't complain... the voters have been very kind in general... it's just some in the last handful... actually... come to think of it... it's was really just the two... votes 156 and 157... POW... Kicked me in the teeth! :(
