Here is a question for all. This was my first challenge and came in 71st place. I looked at the breakdown of votes and I had 4 two's and 4 ones. This picture is in focus, good exposure, nice color and unique. Why would anyone give it a one or two. I checked some other peoples pictures around mine and noticed a few ones twos on their pictures as well that don't deserve it. What gives?


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...

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.

1 vote scrubbed in my case...

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.

whatever placing I get I'd be happy because of the 18 comments and 4 faves I received so far!

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.
