I would not want to rain on anyone's parade, but I reviewed all of the submissions, made two passes so far, voted according to my normal criteria.

The ensuing results are that the scores meted out fell within the range I normally dole out.

I can fully appreciate the fact that the challenge is for a very worthy cause, but from a personal perspective, it does not warrant the bloated scores that some seem to suggest.

Mine was inflated like everyone's and then it dropped quite a bit, but now it has gained slowly over the last couple days and remained steady. It should be on my FP if it holds. Not sure if that means TT in this challenge or not though.

Neat, Maybe you will get your first ribbon then! Hope so!

TO BUSY SMELLING THE FLOWERS RATHER THAN COMMENT.....

I AM EXTREMELY EXCITED AND SO PROUD OF ALL THE ENTRIES...

I AM SORRY, AS I HAVE DECIDED NOT TO COMMENT UNTIL AFTER THE RESULTS, AS I FEEL I CANNOT COPE WITH COMMENTING ON ALL OF THEM AS I WOULD BE WAY TO EXHAUSTED... SO MANY OF THE PHOTOS HAVE TOUCHED MY HEART AND SO MANY MEAN THE WORLD TO ME....

I HAVE SOME PERSONAL FAVORITES AND GOING TO ADD THEM NOW XOX

THANK YOU ALL FOR ENTERING AND IT QUITE A LOT FOR A SPEED CHALLENGE...

Right on your bumper, Leo. Way better than I expected from this. My rare flower entries just don't perform like this.

This will probably put me below the 50th percentile.
06/08/2012 01:32:09 PM · #143
Finally dropped below 6.o with the 4.0 I received from the 76th voter! Ugh!
06/08/2012 01:38:23 PM · #144
Constantly falling from the unrealistic 7 of the beginning. Now at 6.25.
06/08/2012 01:48:13 PM · #145
I just left 7+ but I actually thought this image deserved that 7+ so was quite peeved when everyone got inflated scores ;) doesn't look like I'll make top ten now oh well....

Hopefully Shez likes the picture anyway :) I don't normally enter speed challenges so this one was truly for you Shez x

I just checked the fav -- it wasn't a Shez fav. :(

But it's a fav which is always one of the best things about this site. :)
06/08/2012 11:29:24 PM · #148
Now that this has returned to reality, thought I'd check in.

Might make the last slot on my profile page... barely.

But... I got a Shez fave, so that's an honor in and of itself...

Thanks!
