I think you are talking about me :))
I got a 4.5 so far :(

Seriously...that's some negative vibe you're putting out with the use of "crap."

I think I'm going to pull mine. I like it too much to see it suffer like this. If I don't I will always see it as crap image rather than one I love. I remember now why a break from DPC every now and then is a neccesity.

Maybe I'm alone in this, but I uploaded what I thought to be my best shots of the year to my portfolio and did not want to enter any of them for the challenge in case someone recognized it. So, I ended up NOT entering my best of 2005 for the best of 2005 challenge!!!

With 5 votes I had a 7.4; 13 votes, a 6.07; at 17 votes, a 6.4. One favorite and three positive comments, and then vote #18 was a 4.

I'm no braggart, but come on...

I may have done the same thing; there's one picture in my portfolio that got 20+ favs in like two days. That would have been the obvious choice, but as you say, it wouldn't seem right to submit that... so I had to pick something different. Like someone else said, maybe it should be called "Second Best of 2005!"

You're not alone.
But my score has gone up to 5.000 again. Only 14 votes but 26 views. Votes are going to come in very slowly with so many entries...

Mine's not even the second best. I delete my raw files after i convert to TIFF files with my best images. The one I used was a test shot I had done on December 26th.

Very disappointed. Looks like it's going to be a long two weeks.

I had two shots to pick from. I picked what I considered to be my best shot using my owm criteria and put aside the other one that probably better fits the narrow DPC "wonder shot" criterias.

Doesn't really bother me though. My mantra for 2006 is to submit images that I like, not images that meet the site formula to a T. Consequemtly, my average score received will probably lower this year, but I'm ok with that. Comments and faves mean more to me anyway.

Good luck everyone. I haven't started voting yet, but I'm sure there are truly wonderous shots in the pile.

I was hoping for higher than this, but it's still early, and I do have a fav already.

I don't believe that. I think, as in my case, that for the most part it is the best of what people had on hand.

im getting killed so far.. 5.28 range.

I wouldn't expect a lot off comments on this one. I have 2 faves and only one comment. A lot of work voting on that many entries, I'm almost certain that comments will fall by the side.

Blissfully unaware of my score .... ahhhhh :) It's still a 10 ... it's still a 10 ... it's still a 10 ... it's still a 10...

And I agree wholeheartedly with the general, each photo should be rated on it's own merit - not against the others.
