Is this stuff charted for everyone or did you break those numbers down yourself?
It took some digging, but if you go into your profile, click on "view all" next to your favorites on the left hand side of the screen, then click on "manage your favorites" and THEN click on "view statistically favorite photographs", you'll get to where you need to go :D
ETA: Oh man, I forgot about "my favorites" under "My Home". That avoids my first two steps. lol.
Depends on how many 1's you've given out : ). A lot of people don't give out 10's because it implies that a picture is perfect, which some believe isn't possible.

Apparently, I'm even stingier with 10s. I've given only 11 in 191,247 votes. That really doesn't surprise me, a shot has to really connect with me emotionally and be technically near-perfect to earn that level.

That's about how I vote. I've given 29 10s, which is 8.33% of my votes. Those are for purely subjective, emotional reasons, but usually I don't go above a 9. I need to check, but I don't think I've ever given a one.
ETA: Can't find the one votes info. I'm pretty sure I haven't voted a 1.
I've given fifteen 10s, in a relatively small amount of voting. However, I don't use the number system like some do (where 1 is basically can do no worse, and 10 is perfection). I use the number system as a measure of feeling, emotion, and a measure of personal justice :D I give 10s sometimes just because I think it's probably getting massacred in voting and I think it's a clever photo. I'll also just give 10s to something I simply really like. Same with 1s, on an opposite side of the scale. Well, not FULLY opposite, because I don't give 1s to photos that I think are being scored really high, not in and of itself. I also have to REALLY dislike the photo.
Anyway, I ramble. Since there's no such thing as perfection, and there's no such thing as complete failure, using the voting numbers to denote such is futile.
ETA: Also, I haven't voted in a very long while either, so I guess it's all moot.
i don't give out 1's... unless it's completely horrible. i can't remember the last time i gave out anything less than a 3... and that's a rarity too.

100, but I think there are more than that. I think that's all the one page shows. Maybe I've been too generous.
My general policy is to score each challenge in a normal distribution, with a few "9" and "10" votes and a few "1" and "2" votes. The normal distribution curve for the rest of the challenge. Works for me! This helps determine challenge placement, vs. the member who votes all "4", "5", or "6" votes.

To each their own. When I was voting, I can guarantee that certain things got a 1 no matter what. Like wine glasses. shrug
sorry to be a math geek but i see you've cast 24,157 votes... so if you've given out 29 10's, that's only 0.12 %

a lot of the 10's are from early in my membership and while they're good photos, some of them i would probably not give a 10 to if i was voting on them now.
