A CHALLENGE TO VOTERS!!

There are 382 entries. I challenge everyone who votes (and would also ask that everyone who entered give it a shot) to comment on 38 entries. Start somewhere in the middle of page 2 or 3, and comment on 38 entries IN A ROW. Do not skip any! You can do this whether you are voting or not - if not voting just click on the arrow key to go to the next one after you have finished your comment.

(For those voting, take your time, evaluate what you've been presented, offer a fair score by whatever value system you use.)

We're all getting so caught up in crappy scores (well, except for those who aren't getting crappy scores) that we're forgetting about the other aspects of the site.


Not a bad idea...

You have rated 104 of 382 images (27%) in this challenge.
You have commented on 61 images (16%) in this challenge.
You have given an average score of 5.9519.

That's where I am so far.

I have received a total of 3 (three) comments on my last two entries. Granted, they both totally and truly suck, so there's that, but even some of the top vote getters aren't getting as many. So pitch and give a little!

I'll partake.
04/26/2010 11:27:59 AM · #7
My goal is always to comment on 10% or more of the photos in a challenge, but I like this idea of commenting on X number in a row, no matter if they are good or bad.

I am going to participate in this challenge, I have noticed a drop off in comments as well. Together we can turn this around!

I barely made it through voting on the balloon challenge before cutoff and I definitely need something better to do with my time than obsess over my scores, so I'm in!

Besides, I'd love a comment in return.

04/26/2010 05:21:56 PM · #16
And just for fun, I'm numbering mine!

(1/38) This is a comment.

Anyone care to join me?
04/26/2010 05:26:11 PM · #17
Thanks, guys. By doing them in a row and not skipping any, folks like me who have such completely lackluster and apparently appalling entries might have hope of getting a comment letting them know that their entr is lackluster and appalling. :-) But be kind about it.
04/26/2010 06:02:20 PM · #18
Pick my row please. I still have no comments.
04/26/2010 06:06:37 PM · #19
Alright, done with mine!! Finished about 50 so far :-) I'm amazed at some the shots in this challenge!
04/26/2010 06:37:02 PM · #20
Thanks for the comments everyone.... I am at 6 comments already, and I know some of them are from you.

I will try to do the same... busy week at work, but I should find some time.
