Yes, simply enter the number of votes it currently has and the average. The last column in the spreadsheet will tell you the average of the votes since the last entry.

It's a photo that fits the description, but doesn't fit the title as well. So it's been interesting to try to see how many people go by the description vs the title or whether it has to fit both. So I played around with some math. On average, my recent, non-top 10 photos average about 11% of votes 4 or less. This one is averaging 41% of votes being a 4 or less. So an extra 30% has a problem with the photo fitting the challenge. If that's the case, the interesting thing is: not many people are overly harsh in their votings on dnmc. The majority of low votes are 4s.

Of course this is all theory -- it could be that it's just a bad photo, but I don't think so. It's about the same as my other entries. But it's kind of fun trying to figure out patterns for non-standard entries :D

Only one of the comments is a dnmc one, however...

My entry has been going down verrryy slowly but consistently for the past two days now. Seems like there's been very little voting on this challenge in the last 48 hours.

Knowing your entry, I agree with your assessment, I think many are seeing it as mildly off topic, but they can also see how you felt it fit. So they just knock off a point or two.

Honestly, I'm think I'm about to give up on challenges.. I got a lot out of the DPL (very fun, very informative), but it seems as though I'm not improving at least as far as this site is concerned.

And, that's with 114 challenges under my belt...some of them with decent results and a top 10 finish...most of them lately, BOMBING badly. Take heart. It may take awhile to get somewhere.

Well, it as at 6.500 and then down .. still a decent score but it's strange how the last 10 voters or so see it as a 4 or 5 at best. Maybe that's all it deserves.

Steve, with all those people you help each challenge (myself included) and knowing your policy of not voting on those you have helped, do you ever reach your 20% quoter duing voting? ;-)

I'm not giving feedback to THAT many people. An advantage is that there is always someone handy to bounce my own off of.
