LOL. C'mon, you gotta laugh at that. I think it also means you succeeded! This challenge is going to hit so many different people so many different ways.
ARGH!!!! For that score, I wish I'd entered one of the cooler, riskier shots.
And now you've found my reasoning for my entry. I had about four versions at the end. Two had less of a defect I knew people would ding me for, and one had less of a different defect, but I entered the one with both defects because I liked it best. I figured if I miss my average and drop out of the side tourney, I'd rather do it with a shot I liked a lot.
meh. I have no expectations for this challenge anyways. I just wanted to have fun shooting it. I think I shot about 24-25 frames that could have been used for this challenge and every single one of them would get a different score from every person who looked at it. Abstract art is hard to critique for some people.

Similar situation here. I had three safe shots and the one I entered was different. And like you said if it puts me out of the tourney then at least I went out with a shot I liked. BTW my last 5 votes have all been 5's...Oh well!
By the way, how do you know the individual votes like 4 3 2 4 5 that some guys post? Do I need to be a provileged member to access that information?
Great contest! It is my first time in any contest ever, and I am already loving this experience. Such great pictures in there. Good luck everyone!
Welcome to DPC! It's a great community.
If you pay the $25 fee to become a member, one benefit is that you get a button you can click to update your score as much as you want. Be warned that it's highly addictive, though!
By watching each vote that comes in and doing a little math, you can figure out what that vote is.
