183rd out of 182 entries, that's beyond the Brown Ribbon. Truly unique, and I have to admit I'm a little jealous.

I saw that a while back and thought that it was cool because it gave your profile a unique distinction of having a black ribbon. You should be awarded one for your profile page. That's pretty cool. I'm jealous too. : )

I'm actually a little proud, to be perfectly honest ;) |

There were actually 185 entries, and two disqualifications happened... one of the users seemed to be banned...
Lets suppose you were the 185th... than two disqualifications occured, and you came up to 183 out of 183... then the user was banned and the system took off one more number from the total entries... you didnt got up because you were in front of him yet... but as the number of entries was reduced, the bug happened...
Really dont know...
Now I´m very confused... o.O |

It's happened before, actually, and more than once. Here's a couple of Whiterook's worst-than-last images:
 
I'm sure there have been others...

I'm not positive, but you might have an automatic ticket to Team Suck with that august accomplishment....you'd have to PM our Fearless Leader,  posthumous, to be sure, but I know you'd have achieved a level of Suck in which to truly be proud!

| Wow - does that actually mean it's "anti-bad"? Does the level of suck of this photo actually makes other photos better? |

Well, that's hard to say. It's more like a black hole of suck, in that the first place winner is still ranked with 100% (as opposed to 101%), but this image somehow managed to absorb that extra little bit of Fail to drop it off the end of the scale.

If that's not an automatic ticket, then I can try harder next time. I'll produce an image so horrible that images presented NEAR it in voting will become brown ribbons by association! |

Hmmm ... I have three finished like that, although one still shows as 0%, not -1% ...

Well, looking on the overexposed bright side, that leaves room for improvement : )

I think you'll find that teh third one would be -0.48%, the system will round down (less than 0.5) and hence 0%. Whereas the other two are approx -0.66%, again the system would round up this time to -%1.
Hmm, yes I'm an engineer, boring eh! |
