That would be real close. I would say it gets over, but not by much. I sure hope you do !

Kiwiness vs. Larus (humor)

You may recall Larus had called out Kiwiness to enter the Square challenge. Larus bragged he could beat him with one hand tied behind his .jpeg submission file. Kiwiness accepted the challenge.

In the last exciting episode, broadcast on the FOX network, both combatants were nearly tied around 6.5.

Since then Kiwiness, in an apparent abuse of SC authority, initiated an investigation of Larus's vote patterns looking for anomalies and cheating. An internal SC memo obtained from an anonymous source specifically mentioned an Icelandic block voting conspiracy. Since this crosses international boundaries Interpol was called in to investigate.

According to unconfirmed reports, Kiwiness claims that every vote for Larus' image above 6 is suspect and should be thrown out.

In private communications with the SC, Larus denies all charges but Kiwiness countered with promises to each SC member for special nude photography instruction with the model of their choice.


Your information sources are very accurate :)

You are describing my entry as well. A roller-coaster, I tell you. I climbed above a 6, now I have dropped down again. At this point, I don't think it's going up. Probaby voters readjusting their original scores a little. Don't know of any new voters this late in the game.

Avg Vote: 5.9779 (and it has gone down in the past few minutes - it was at 5.998x :(

STOP THE BLEEDING! PLEASE!!!!!!!

Yup, I too have seen a big 'swing' in this comp. By the time I was down to 5.2 on Tuesday (from a 5.7 start) I was sure I'd entered the wrong pic but its picked up to 5.8.

okay - so no one wants to bump me up enough to hit a 6.000. The at least fav my entry. Favs are more special to me than the scores anyhow.

So close to 6.000.....but not quite there.

Holy crap! I got a favorite. What's going on? The planets must be out of alignment. I hoped for a better score. Maybe on the next one.

this is one amazing challenge, voted on 27% so far. Forgot about top3, the top 25 will be most awesome.

Well, the hope for a 5.6 is fading fast.... Stuck on 5.5

Still should be a PB for me.

Come on, someone give me another 5/10000 of a point!
03/12/2006 12:27:35 PM · #267
I started in the 7's and have have hung around 6.1-6.2 for the rest of the week. I was hoping for a PB but that's looking like a fading dream. Just was hoping for a different image on my home page.

Looking forward to rollover tonight.
03/12/2006 12:30:50 PM · #268
I am SO SICK of looking at my picture I can only hope I live long enought for rollover, and then I can suffer all over again with the Literary challenge!!

But I think I'm having fun.
