I̢۪m in 3 challenges. Scores so far are 5.66, 6.57, and 7.68. How̢۪s that for consistency!!:) kind of interesting because if I was going to score myself it would be 6.5, 6.2, 6.3 in the same order. The one I like the best has the lowest score:( No accounting for taste! It will be interesting to see where they end up (?). Not complaining. Just thought it was interesting.

My usual trend lately is to start strong (often high 6's) and then steadily drop and level out in the high 5s or low 6's.
My theory is that the earlier voters are unbiased by the performance of their own entry. Not that such behavior either way is intentional. But I think there is some subconscious bias no matter how hard we try to avoid it. |

It'll never happen, but it would be fun to someday close the voting and announce the winners of a specific challenge after 2 days of voting :-)

I can’t imagine you ever getting the brown! You could take a picture with your eyes closed and still ribbon! Hey, that would be an interesting challenge, “take a picture of a moving object with your eyes closed†We’ve had stranger challenges. Well, maybe not:-) !

Exactly the fun part. Highest average scores in a challenge ever? We'll never do it, of course...
