Yea missing a challenge can change your ranking. You were ranked 18th before and now your ranked 28th. A drop of 10 places. But if you would have entered one challenge your rank would have went to 17th; one place better than last week (based on your same score and percentile).

so if I enter 3 more challenges over this next wk...I should move up right...huh...huh
LOL...Your on the list tied with sfalice and Brat in 140th Place.
ETA: Last week you were ranked 164th and this week 140th. Your gained 14 positions. Great Job!
Excellent! Thanks for the info. Just an FYI - when I open the page, it only shows the first 91 or 92. Not sure if that was by design or not... but at least I know I exist there somewhere :D
But just entering them all doesn't always help -- I think I dropped 88 places ...
Your right. Entering will not always make you move up the rankings; if you don't your sure to move down. You have to continue to try to improve your average score. And improve you percentile. What I like about the percentile, it is based on the challenges you enter and eliminates the ones you didn't. Say you scored a 5.5000 in challenge "A". You may have received a percentile of 44% but if you would have entered challenge "B" with the same score you may have received a percentile of 59%. So percentile is going to be different with each challenge because of the diversity of entrants, voters, amount of entries, etc.
ETA: GeneralE
Last week you were ranked 673rd
This week your ranked 599th
Reason: you entered 2 more challenges. Even though your score and percentile went down a very small amount it did not overcome your participation.
Cool! Thanks, Scott--really interesting to see these stats. I'd actually been wondering what my personal 2010 average score was; you've answered that question for me! Thanks again!
