    Wow, favorite and most original! I’m honored! :)

    Just out of curiosity, what would have made an image with a clear theme? I noticed none of us got it right in the end.

        No worries, everyone getting to add an extra point to their score doesn’t change the ranking.

        I was just worried that we all misunderstood the theme and just made a big collective mess of it all (which can be fun in it’s own way :)

      Just out of curiosity, what would have made an image with a clear theme

      Regarding the theme is clear rule, I feel like it’s badly named. At the time of the Monsters are back to school I came with some arbitrary rules to count point, to be neither the most upvoted nor OP’s favourite, my original them is clear idea was to make sure that people stay in the week theme, but indeed that one hasn’t been used much (in the sense everyone getting the bonus), so may-be worth removing it.

      Another rule change which may be interesting is the weight of the “most upvoted”, meaning that in the end it’s always the most upvoted winning. May be it’s interesting to try most upvoted 2, second most upvoted 1, or even Most upvoted 3, 2nd most upvoted 2, 3rd most upvoted 1, but these are just thought on point weighting

      Pinging @Halcyon@discuss.tchncs.de as they’ll be the one offering the next challenge. If you want to improve the rule, feel free, when I came with that point system 6 month ago I wasn’t expected to be “holy rules”

        That’s true, I don’t think I’ve ever not given anyone a “theme is clear” point (and I hosted four of them already)

        The problem is that most of the points are easily won by most contestants, and others are very much up to the host’s taste (OP favorite, most original). If you lower the “most upvoted”, you might end up with a lot of combinations that could tie for first place. On the other hand, with “most upvoted” being so heavily weighted, it usually means that those who post first will have a higher chance of winning.

        I agree on the rules not being absolute, feel free to experiment with whatever you think will work for you @Halcyon@discuss.tchncs.de

          Ok, I thought about this and decided to not continue the “theme is clear” points in the upcoming contest. And I’ll try: Most upvoted +3, 2nd most upvoted +2, 3rd most upvoted +1 point. And: +1 point for the last TWO entries.
