The submitters also have two other photos of the same location:
which were also consecutively uploaded (461216, 471217). It could be the same person going for the double entry, but if that's the case, i doubt they pose any serious threat... what's more likely is it's two school friends who share the use of the same camera. If it was a higher-scoring photo, i would be concerned, but this is probably innocent, so i would say live and let live...
H0w is this any different than doing a similar shot that was done in another challenge?
Well in DejaVu Challenges its normal... HAHAHA.. anyways I actually refrain from trying anything ive seen which probly hurts me even worse due to my lack of forced creative inspiration.
1 - Techniques can be copied and produce images 99% different. Most of Scalverts techniques can be replicated for completly different images.
2 - After 5 or 6 other people attempting something challenge wise that ive seen in a tutorial... it gets old but that doesnt mean anything is wrong with it.
Really they changed the shot to not be the same shot. But at the same time they could have had one shot not having the phones in a circle. Changed the background to see which one would score better.
NOT accusing foul play just unoriginality as nice as i can...... yeah it doesnt work does it....
To me it looked like they were having fun. I did not think it was anything illegal. It's like a game to see if you can spot the similar photos. I was wondering if this one might also be a part of the set:
I love that the uh... dinosaur (? Is that right?) Received 3 scores of 10... I barley ever get 3 scores of ten. :)
The 10 scores represent anti-trolls. Literally. I'm not making it up. Some people (I've done it once or twice) just sense someone going for brown and give them a 10 to boost their score...
