whoa, that's pretty cheap--why wouldn't it be dq'd?
Because it was not stipulated to be a DQable offence....but it is now! We can't change the rules of the past...but we can change the rules of the future.
No, there's a special rule for this challenge. The last time a "time" challenge ran, it only had to look like 2 seconds. This one has to BE exactly 1 second.

I guess I did not see the diff with the old description of
Description
Take a photograph using a shutter speed of exactly 2 seconds
and the new one of:
Challenge Details: Take a photograph using a shutter speed of exactly 1 seconds.

Because (until now) "DNMC" was not grounds for DQ.
EDIT: Wow, you guys are fast. :-)
Ah, I'm still pretty new at this--so I give people the benefit of the doubt. I assume that their photos meet the challenge (even if it's through someone's warped point of view :) But having a first place completely ignore the challenge description boggles my mind. Oh well, I'll also return money if they give me too much change.

I'm such an idiot. I did not notice:
Extra Rules: This time, your entry will be disqualified if you do not use shutter speed of 1 second
Is this 1.00 sec or can it go to 1.1 or 1.2 sec - ??
It says 1 second...so I would say it means one second only...not 1.2 or 1.whatever..lol!
Yah... But you know, I have *set* a shutter speed of 1 second and had the EXIF show .997 seconds, or something like that. Threw me for a loop when I saw that... I wonder if there's gonna be a % deviation allowed? Like, anything between 1.025 and .975 is considered "1 second"? I'm not real worried about it, just curious...

Hmm. I think if that's a real technical issue, then we're looking at a real disaster of biblical proportions. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together. MASS HYSTERIA!

Well considering you can't (as far as I am aware) set your camera for .997 seconds...I think you should be okay.
