This is not about votes, but about views

A friend asked me yesterday ‘Why don’t you look at the last entry in a contest?’ I was surprised, because I always do so. Today I take a good look over the last 7 day’s of contest. And he is ‘shocking’ right. Sometimes I’m a day to late with my entry… I won’t do that anymore… because I chop in good sleeping time! Wink
It’s not about votes… but about respect, takes a little time for every chopper. And sometimes a very good chop comes in at the last day and nobody looks at it. That’s a shame. Confused


I promise that I will take care and will pay attention on every chop.

While I’m babbling…
I want to say sorry to you all that I not comment very often… that’s because:
- The language (I can read it well - except some slang -, but writing is difficult)
- The time (work, kids, real life: what’s new?)
- I feel that, while I’m still learning, therefore I’m not in a position to give other comments than: good, fantastic, love it, etc.

But I’m very happy with your pm's, help and comments: THANKS! Very Happy Hug


And now I have to say something like: soapbox or 2 cts, I think… Laughing Laughing Laughing

Some of the great discrepancy between early and very late entries would disappear if pre-contest views weren't logged. The discrepancy would be much smaller, I think, if views by the image/owner weren't logged at all. The former should be easy to code; I'm not sure about the latter.



thumleft Agree with you and think it would be a good idea to have the creator's views not register. I can't see why it would be hard to do...take forum posts for example; I can edit/delete my own posts, but, obviously not yours. "It" knows when it's me in the forum - surely "it" would be able to tell when it's me looking at my own contest entry as well.

I think that was around the time of your "I'm outta here" post...sometimes people go from the forum to the artist in question's work to see what all the hype is about...and that was a poular thread Wink

it's all about the votes, ask ma,,,,o , many old timers, we seem to have limited anon contest back, but we dont have the "totaly bind, disadvantaved, we all see the pic together for the first time at 08:00 PSC time, no time to cheat" contest, someone might be able to think of a more catchy name for the contest, but this is how it all began, and it was good, JMH saw it was good and left it that way for years

I have found sometimes my votes have run out before some of the later entries are posted, so now I try and wait a day to do a general view, to make sure my votes are more fairly spread. Occasionally I'll have a quick look and vote for two or three that really strike me...but try to keep a load back for later...cos non-advantage members deserve votes too esp. if they can't post early.
