there are some very unkind people out there unfortunately...hopefully they all balance out
even in my top scoring picture I have 1's and 3's...go figure... |

Had to quickly copy and paste this score as it probably won't last too long. I finally hit 5.5000

That person must not have voted on my image. Oh well. A 6+ is all I really ever try for so I am pleased with the ending. Would have liked to not see a drop in the last hour but like I said, I hit my goal mark so let the party begin.

I feel my score might end up that way.
I think most voters voted on a curve this challenge. Since there were so many outstanding over-the-top photos, mine is sinking into oblivion. |

This one is going to trash my overall average. At least it will be helping some of you up in the overall % ratings. Maybe this will be my first brown : P

This one is going to keep me on the edge until the last minute. Every time it pops it's head above a 6, it goes just under again.

I would think there is a ribbon in your very near future. If not that is still a great score, congratulations. |

I consider anything above a 5.5 to be doing well. The higher you go, the more the contest is about broad appeal and wow-factor than simply having a good shot. (IMO) If you look at the voting breakdown after the challenge ends, you can often get a good feel for it. There are some members who are sucking if they do a 5.5, but for many of us, it is the entrance to the happy-zone. |
