I'll state up front, I think this signifies exactly nothing.

I just happened to notice this on my profile:
Avg Vote Cast: 5.5698
Avg Vote Received: 5.5686
Difference: 0.0012

Anybody else closer?

But for awhile my average vote given was around 5 so I think they are actually closer. My last two challenge average vote given for challenges were around 5.6 and 6.4

I like to think of it as signifying vaguely something.

There are too many variables as to why voters give a certain score to others photos.

Well it looks like I'm an ungratiful bastard. I use to have way more votes cast than received but I've been slacking lately. :(

It's better to give then to receive and to let them think they are better.

Better to whom? Personally, I rather receive the score my entry actually deserves than some charity vote. The later doesn't help me improve.

Who said anything about giving a 'charity' vote?

Sorry. I misunderstood by what you meant by "let them think they are better." I thought you were talking about giving a higher vote.

Oh no, sorry I misled you. The 'let them think they are better' part referred and earlier comment - that average given out is higher then the one you currently have. That's how I deal with it anyway. But I'm the one sitting here with one year in and no ribbon. Hey, I do have an 'Honorable Mention' though! };>)

I guess I should hand out a few more ones. :) Alright, maybe I'll enter a few more decent entries and bring my average up. Btw, this is the highest my average has been since getting DQ'd. Now to try for 5.25 again.

And at the end of the day you are absolutely right... it means nothing.

Ooo - picked up a few higher votes overnight!

And I'll repeat myself - I just thought it was fun they were so close, not that it meant anything.
