Just in case I was about to get a swelled head, right back to reality with this one! I predicted a 4.x and so far I'm right on target ;-p

Sorry; I would have stayed, if I hadn't realized I just didn't belong there. You made it quite welcoming, with the popcorn and beverage and all. I'm sure someone else will join you soon ... er or later.

Don't despair - the first 5 votes I was at 6
the next 5 votes took me to 5.5
the next 5 votes took me to 4.2
and the next 6 votes brought me to 5.5

There seems to be a few trolls around - hopefully they will go to sleep soon.

Hmmm, maybe they just didn't like your picture.. I dished out a number of 4s in this challenge, yours may of been amongst them, but that doesnt make me a troll. Your score of 5.2 and only 2 comments shows that it probably deserves its placing somewhere between a 4 and 6, so a number of 4s is certainly not a troll vote... Its getting annoying where someone gets a low mark and immediately bitches about it, people are always looking to blame someone else.

When a photo starts out so low and then at around the 25 vote mark starts to increase what can the current voters see the earlier voters did not, Except for one challenge my last 15 challenges have all started in the low to mid fours and had to struggle to improve from there, I call it as I see it.

PS: 1. comment--nice tones, colors and sharpness.7
2. comment--good set up

Assuming image excellence, you should consider that some people do a first pass marking 4's and 5's to split the field and then adjust within those groups.

my goodness, the voters are exceptionally leapless this challenge... think! think!! it's a smarts challenge after all...

This is something I do not understand,why voters have to go through and split the field into groups, why not vote the photo on first impact and give the photo the score you would later, I feel so many 4's & 5's get left in the botom and finish the challenge underated, this type of voting also causes a lak of joy to the photographer, if you must split the field pick 6's & 7's then go back and resort your selection.

Still about what I expected. My idea may have been OK but the execution is not exceptional <--- understatement!
