Just wondering if some ATP members are excluded excluded from this list and what that criteria is. There have been a few Celebration Weeks where i have thumbed through the entire category to participate. @dave

Certainly not! The wrapups are done entirely by software (although I do the final posting process and all that) and there is no exclusion occurring.

Do you feel you should have been included in this list? I can look and see how many thumbs you gave during the dahlias week and let you know what the number was (#5 was jmorth at 70 thumbs.)

I went and checked. For dahlias week, you were #16 in terms of thumbs given. You gave 21 thumbs to dahlias images while the week was ongoing.

I see my error now. This is a reflection of thumbs up for the entries of that week only and not all Dahlias in the DB. Silly me. There are some excellent entries buried in there however. I tip my hat to you.
