    Hi All,

    Well, just finished a much longer session, almost reaching movie #100 (+30
    calibration movies) before getting bumped.  I noticed the ranking pool
    (1625) never increases, which seems unlikely unless they actually limited
    it to this many initial users.

    My ranking was bouncing around #12-14 when somehow I missed a "donut"
    in one of the test movies, which immediately bumped me to #26.  Haven't
    missed one since, but I notice the ranking still sometimes ticks higher.
    Guess that means that some people are reviewing images faster than I
    am.

    I have noticed a few oddities in the movies.  Sometimes a phantom frame
    will appear in the movie sequence -- usually this is a frame from a 
different
    movie, but occasionally it's someone's photograph!  I got a black & white
    image of a young Asian couple's wedding reception, a color car ad for
    some blue sedan (very pixelated), and a color image of four young ladies --
    probably from the same wedding.  Amusing bug!  --Rob
