The judges give points to all the pictures, without knowing which is made by who.

I tally up the points, and the average scores are then all compared, and the 10 highest scores go on to the finals. In this case we even had 12 highest scores, with 3 entries ending up with a same score. And these outcomes are not up for discussion. If you can't be a good sport about it, then don't enter, since you might not be picked.

It's not about quality alone, or else it would be unfair to those with less good pc's. It's also about composition, and what is captured and how. Your picture might have a nice sunset, but on the other hand, the ship is very dark and not really standing out as such, I can presume that has been a factor, perhaps. Jim's picture is in that respect, very different from yours. Just happens to be the same ship. Just cause you have a nice sunset doesn't mean you'll win or reach the final.

This attitude can be done without, to be honest, mate.

   Yea I know, I shouldn't be mad. It's just when I saw it I said to myself "Hey this looks exactly like mine". So I kind of felt "ripped off"

Still curious who are the judges? (V-Step employees, moderaters, random members, random people, your kids (if you have any))

Ohh well . Theirs alway October!  :)


P.S. my pic. was taken not during "play" but when you select your ship!

Well, of course everyone always thinks his or her picture is the best. But the variety of points given make it for a reasonably fair process.

The judges? Who knows...   ::)

But nope, not Vstep, not even forum members. And nope I do not have kids either.  ;D

An hour a week seems fair enough..  You have to do it some time..  :P
