Well, I have just completed my 50th challenges with Deep DOF (my 51st in voting now...). I find this amusing because it was on me 50th challenge that I destroyed my personal worst, scoring more than .15 below my previous personal worst.

So much for improvement... :-) Here is the flying turd, for your enjoyment...

We all have our off days. Nothing to be concerned about. Your profile page is filled with 6's and you average is a good amount over mine. 1 ribbon, 2 HM's. Full speed ahead and damn the torpedoes.

Don;t worry, I know. I just thought is was humorous, given that I had been on some kind of good run :)

Happens to me as well. I'll have a short string of high scoring entries and then I get creamed.

Yeah, you never know what's going to fly and what's going to flop. Sometimes you get a strong feeling about the way something will do and sometimes your right..sometimes....your wrong. It happens. Don't fret. 50 challenges and you already have a ribbon and two top 5's. I care about my average and get a bit annoyed when I score badly but sometimes I submit something I KNOW will do terrible like I did in Twisted. I was hoping for my daughters score to beat mine and boost her confidence. I'm still slightly outscoring her so I guess it was all for naught, but ehhh...it's just a website. That bad score(mine, and also yours) will be buried by tons of good scores soon enough. :)
