Hope you can find some photographs to give some high votes to. (tough voters you both are)
OUCH!!! (Votes Cast: 234 Avg Vote Cast: 2.5855) You know that on the 1 to 10 scale 1 is meant to be the lowest score??
PS Can you have more votes than images viewed with the current system?

Double Ouch...a 2.5 for one and a 3.0 for the other. Tough crowd here. :O/

I wish they would tell me which images were theirs so I could vote on them using their own scale.

Avg Vote Cast: 2.5855 and 3.0154 - Wow, that's...low.
That are scores between 1 and 4 maximum.
Looks like we have 2 masters among us.
And they even came among us on exactly the same date - what an honour to our community.
Can't wait till rollover to find out what the quick&dirty entry is.

Regarding the viewed images/votes: how can you vote on an entry you didn't open...Each vote should count for 1 entry. The remaining views can be whatever photograph you open, in our out challenge. - (I think)

I'm not sure how the viewed images works. I think voting doesn't count as a view. I've voted on 3355 images, but viewed 2789. But regardless, stuff does appear fishy.

They both register on the same day, and have similar extreme low voting, and one uses a profile pic that is an outtake of the others challenge entry.

Dig farther and you will notice that user zarko got hit with four DQ's right before the two accounts were created.

Lets check the EXIF data of a few images...
zarko entered and blacknoir entered
Both happen to have the Author name of "Zarko IVentic"

Do we have three users or only one?

Will pederlol's pic have the same Author in it's EXIF, I guess we will find out after voting.

I guess I was a bit harsh on the votes at first... went through them all again.

And yes, be sure to check the EXIF data.

Good, I hope it's all coincidence :)

We need as many active participants as possible, I just don't appreciate people that try to wiggle around the rules.

Yeah, FYI: I am the one in the picture (with the cup of tea), my friend is the one taking it... He introduced me to this site.

Well we at least have two users then :) Welcome and good luck on your first entry!

Did you also enter other challenges? ie "fool the viewer" or "where's waldo?", "from above"...

Just wondering because it says you entered 3 challenges so far, but failed to mention any but the "Wine".

I have found that leaving comments is a good way to learn about how to really inspect the image. Later I will review my comments and compare them to other's comments and see how "off" I was. (234 poor votes, Zero comments)

.....as well as his friend blacknoir
(Votes Cast: 130 Avg Vote Cast: 3.0154) zero comments from both as to why most of all the images they have voted on are so poor
FYI: it is really good to leave comments...it helps us, who have crappy images, learn

It does list the same creator. So does that mean "they" are sharing a camera?

Back to scores.

Heading down, down, down

Just about average, but better then I thought I would do. If I didn't enter something I would have been without a single image in voting, and that is just unacceptable :)

And on the other topic, when a user is identified with an extremely low average vote cast, we should get the SC to change their userid to Troll_1, Troll_2, etc.. ;)

It does indeed not. And from the EXIF data you will see that we do not share camera. Why on earth would I shoot with a 550d, compared to a 5d mII?

And concerning the scores: I voted on all the "wine" photos - and I completely stick with my 3.49 average votes: most photos are poorly lit, composed and lack ideas and imagination. Since when is a paying member not allowed to vote without commenting? What a way to welcome a new member :/

I didn't want to come off as an idiot, but somehow you guys made me...

edit: And on topic:

Oh and btw: 0 comments on my submission so far.....

It's probably me that's coming across as an idiot. I don't mean to jump to any conclusions. Sorry for that.
