This single little hyperlink has caused more loss of productivity in my life then anything I can think of. Sometimes I will purposely walk by the computer just so I can click on it. If I get up at night for a run to the bathroom I boot up the machine so I can click it when I return. There’s no satisfaction --- if Im doing well I click it more if I’m doing poorly I think about clicking it more but figure if I wait a bit maybe my score will go up. But it’s always there in the corner of my mind. If I wasn’t the boss I would fire myself or have the firewall block the site. It’s driving me MAD I tell you MAD!!!!
LOL I live for the update stats button on Sunday and Tuesday nights but by mid day Monday and Wednesday I forget about it til the next challenge starts.
You are so right.. both of you! But.. I still couldn't live without it... LOL
Then, I achieve a score I like, and I say "don't update it.. save the moment"..but I lose the inner battle, and strike the mouse button, and "ahhh.. for shame, I have lost .002 of a point" blast
I bet the servers must really burn at certain times due to the Update button. I check it much too often. If I couldn't check it I'd probably get withdrawal symptoms.
On more than a few occasions I have hit the update link only to realize that 60 seconds had not yet passed since the last time I updated! Has anyone else done this? It would make me feel better if I was not alone.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! I now check the time and make sure at least 5 minutes has passed since the last update...Sunday and Tuesday nights are the worst! I check every few moments during the first hour of voting...its the advantage of being a member!

I use the Screen Capture feature in ACDSee to savour the moment forever. Anyone wanna see my portfolio of screen captures? :)
Yes I have. I have also tried to figure out a way to have the score and comments be sent to my phone as an sms text message when ever I am away.
Its funny too because when I joined I never dreamed I would be this way. Now I find out that I have an addictive, competitive (I have lost.002 of a point) usually gets a groan out of mean, person.

I didn't think it was possible, but you are worse than me! LOL

Hah.. You all have nothing on me! I wrote a little program to check my scores (and record them) for me every 10 minutes. Now I can graph how good/bad I'm doing in pseudo-realtime.
I bet you could charge a membership premium for that. Or better yet make a site dpc-stats.com and have a much bigger breakdown of the numbers. Like women 18-29 average vote etc etc. I would really like more information about who likes and dislikes my photos. Demographic and all. Why not, its not like DPC doesn’t have the numbers for the breakdowns.

Err, I am probably blind, but where is the Update Stats button? I just keep reloading the page. I can't see it for the life of me. Help!!!
