a 6+ score is not bad :)

No, almost anybody on this site should be happy with a 6-score.

Creeping back...keep going baby!

My score's tanking and I have no idea why. I usually have some clue where I stand...or why but this Challenge and the entires have me at a bit of a loss.

I'm hoping it's just the bogus first day voters and they will move along soon, leave me alone and go torture the people who entered Fashion.

I'm right with you on that one. I didn't expect a high score on mine, but mine is seriously in the dumps right now...

But is it worse than this?

I woke up this morning and I was at about 6.7...now I've slid down to 6.03. Still doing a lot better than I thought I would.

Good luck to everyone.

Mine dropped like a rock overnight!

Oh well, last time it did that, it shot back up the next day :)

Since this is the first challenge I've entered, I'm not really sure how well I'm doing. Slightly less than average I'd guess?

Heh, mine went from 6.23 at 06:45AM today to 6.44 at 09:00AM and is now at... 6.04 :-P
I'm sure there will be a "recovery" of sorts, I'm used to seeing this kind of temporary swing, especially in the early going.

Since I was sure that I would be at a 6.1 (6.5 if I was lucky) this is tanking as far as I'm concerned. Outside of the "interest factor" which is all up to personal choice, I think I took a darn good 6ish image which fits it's duotone treatment well.

Savages....I say!!!
but still, a long way to go

this is my first time entering a challenge.. it's my first introduction to the update button too... I have no idea what to expect and see where many say that the scores change a lot after the initial phase.. I do know this, it will make me much more inclined to leave comments as well as vote.. here are my scores to date... I had around 5.6 when I first looked... falling now.. the comments are interesting however..

I'm dying here. Some one throw me a life preserver.

I've fallen from a 6.24 this morning to a 5.77 currently (in only 20 or so votes). Must be disgruntled participants taking it out on everyone.

Am I the only one finding this? How do you score this sort of thing?

Q.


You'd guess or you are psychic? Which I wonder? So you vote an image down based on guessing or dowsing, or using a clairvoyant?

Q.

Details: Your submission should only consist of two tones (black/white, sepia, etc).
in all honesty I dont think people who submitted color pics with only 2 colors did not follow the challenge. I will only hold that aginst them though if there are other colors in the image than the main 2. Duotones are made of 2 colors and in printing it is done with 2 diffrent colors of dots, fortunatly in computers pixels are small so shade varations can be made like greyscale and sepia....

So anybody who's belly-aching about getting a 5... I've got a lot of ground to catch up on. I got a feeling, although I haven't been able to figure out how to do it yet (unless I become a full member), that I'm looking at some 1's and 2's on my photo. I even got one comment from someone wondering why I picked the subject I did. No matter... it just means I have to try harder in the next challenge. Right?

Hellooohooo mine droped from 7.0000 to 5,106! Almost the lowest I ever had... Only 1 comment...nice.. And I thought I had a nice pic. Why does nobody tell me what's wrong, I don't get it. Well I'll stop my comments too. Why bother if others don't.
