Why? Because I have more than one egg and the challenge says AN egg?
"Details: Your photograph must contain an egg. Be creative, and have fun!"
I'll see you all in a week...


Mmm I think "an egg" implies "at least one egg", not "just one egg".

But thats just my understanding.


It would appear the voters minds are scrambled on this concept. :)

I'm really confused by the voters. In the short period of time I was checking my score this morning I saw one voter reduce his/her vote by 6 and another give my image a 2. What's going on with the voters? Is it because my image has more than one egg in it? I had no idea voters would be so anal about the wording of the topic.....or is my shot THAT bad? I sure didn't think it was a DNMC. Even if the peeps didn't think it was creative enough, a 2 seems a bit harsh. Anyway, sitting at 5.3750 now, down from 6.2 last night. :-(

I was failing to see why people complained about Trolls...I was very happy with my score...As the votes came in it only headed up and up untill. My score dropped with a FULL point to now.(that is 1..not .3 or .5 or .8....Its 1!)

Thats it..I am done with setting up scenes. Frome now on Im only shooting landscapes. Ill bake an egg on a hot piece of rock with a pretty sunrise but it WILL be Landscape.

Im singing with Old Roy here...MERCY

only if oxen moronic...

Sorry folks... the description says "an egg.". if it contains a dozen it contains an egg. If it contains 100,2,57, or 1, it contains an egg.

i give up, i try to be new and creative, but no dpc just consists of pictures that are always the same, try and do somthing unique and get hammered for it.

23 votes with an average of 4.6 since I left this morning. I wish I knew why. I'll believe it if the majority says it stinks, but I do wish I knew what they were seeing.

Comments, please!

I feel good about my score now, not that I was expecting any better.. I ran out of eggs before I could get the shot I had in mind, should have bought the 16 pack!

That is nuts, but there can't be many voters using the same criteria -- hopefully no more than one anal-retentive one. :-)

If some are dinging images because they contain more than one egg they should be yolked from DPC. :)

Just plain strange voting. 3 votes with an average of 3.6667 then 3 more votes with an average of 7.333. I really didn't think this was a love it or hate it shot.

I have seen of late that there is some serious trolling on the first day of voting, then my score climbs from there. My gut feeling is that mine is a 6.2ish shot, so hopefully onwards and upwards, for me, and everyone else too.

My very first vote in this challenge was a 10, so I am now very disappointed:
