I'm not bothering to worry about the last four as they are soooooooo at odds with the ones before hand! I'm going to wait and see what the wider community thinks before I throw myself onto a burning pyre.......

Oh dear, was going to say the same but see I'm in good company.

5 votes was at 6.8 and at 12 saw 4.8 so the last 8 votes have averaged a 3.

This hasn't happened for a while so I think SC need to check this one out, i see a lot of newbies online lately when the low votes have occurred.

Yeah my image is going down fast.

Maybe I'll get a brown ribbon.
09/16/2015 09:40:48 AM · #8
Same here,
Last few votes have taken the score down 2.0
09/16/2015 09:46:34 AM · #9
It's funny how they all happened in a row, quite the conundrum really....out of 11 votes I've had three 9's so I'm not too concerned, just got my first comment also with a very nice score thankyou.

The average score is generally erratic in the early stages of voting, but Fill the Frame seems completely nuts. My last three votes have been ones. I think it may be time to turn off voting for a few days, and then kick it back on when things have leveled out.
09/16/2015 09:57:44 AM · #11
The single comment i received was from a voter whose average vote is 4.000. The comment makes literally no sense and the vote was a .... wait for it ... 4.
09/16/2015 10:00:52 AM · #12
6.4 @ 5 votes, 5.4 @ 11 votes...now back up to 5.83 @ 12 votes.
09/16/2015 10:03:04 AM · #13
Wow! Woke up to a 5.33 and went down to a 3.66, lowest I have ever seen. It seems low scores all around....something wrong with this picture! :(
09/16/2015 10:34:55 AM · #14
Well, it is an Open challenge ... those always seem to have some tougher votes IMO.

No, you aren't.


I'm guessing, just a guess mind you, that at least 4 of these are from a high school assignment. If you look closely at one of them, you'll see what I mean. There is a teacher on here who has said before he assigns his class the open challenges. So, take it for what it's worth. Being high school kids they are probably voting down everything but each other and I'm sure it will get sorted out.

And to think, that was as idea I posted recently (recruiting teachers / students) LOL
Sad to think that they are both that bad at assignments and that conniving ...

impressive right?

Maybe they should offer a special student only challenge.

There IS a HS class working here. We HAVEN'T had any notification from the teacher, which would have been nice. We ARE seeing probable voting irregularities, it's not your imagination. We'll take care of it. Let's please not go slamming the kids, they have no idea of the culture here and they are goofing off, as far as I can see. I don't see any maliciousness so far.
09/16/2015 11:53:01 AM · #23
I definitely agree about not slamming them. But going on ANY competitive web-site and involving yourself in conspired voting should not be taken too lightly. I'm not saying kick them out or anything, but they are a computer-savvy generation and social-media experts - one would think they would understand how important behavior online can be.

Cheers Bear!

I'll douse the flames on my pyre now...........

A teacher should teach.
In everything we teach there is PPP.
(Present, Practice, Perform.)
It seems that the teacher didn't present enough, didn't practice and already expect a performance from his students. This can only go wrong and discourage a learner. A student should be proud of his/her work. That's why the input of a teacher is very important in a learning process.
I predict they will get the lowest votes ever recorded in world history of photography in the DPC universe and beyond where no photographer has gone before.
