# Not sure if you can chalk this up to HT... Don't think he writes the newsletter.
But it's a bit harsh that yours isn't in there. Was a time when the image compo was The Top Three As Voted rather than some discretionary thing like the QOTW.

# It's always been the top three I've never known it to be different.

# Think lately there's been an element of subjectivity to them.
Although from my perspective it's pretty academic cos I rarely trouble the popular page these days :'o(

# Oh well fuck this for a game of soldiers.
What's the point of being a b3tan if it's all for nothing? Don't bother answering that, it's time I left this site.

# I didn't know the point of challenges was to be in the top three
Nor did I know the point of posting was to be on the popular page, let alone the front page. For me that's probably a good thing since they're all well out of my fliddy reach. But then I never check the front page or the popular page and rarely pay close attention to the image challenge part of the newsletter.

I think it's all too possible to take this place too seriously.

# I have observed this also.
Happened with one of mine, but it was a bit quick and shit, so I wasn't overly perturbed. It's not a democracy, but still.

# Yeah, you came first with no mention
2nd, 10th and 23rd got a mention

# Nor is it a meritocracy
Have seen plenty of good stuff on here that barely gets any attention (I don't mean mine - I'm fully aware that most stuff I post is shit), but when a well-known name posts something it immediately garners comments and votes even if it's low in hummus. I think everything in life is like that though. It's whom you know...

# The whole point in the challenges is that it IS a democracy
So they shouldn't be screened by the mods at all.

# There was a period when " I found this I think it should win the compo "
seemed to be in the top three every week. Some of them were funny, but some were just faceswaps. I can see whoever placed 4th getting pissed off with that.

# Isn't that exactly what it is if it's not a democracy but based on someboy's view of the effort of individuals
misguided or not.
