Dammit, I was going to play my cornflower blue sports bra pic as a last minute trump card.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. I shall now post the rankings from last to first place. Drumroll, please...
In the waste-of-points category, with scores that only served to make it harder for somebody else to win, we have...
briclimbs -- 5
blondgecko and areyoumydude -- 6
bustloose -- 7
photoguy190 -- 9
gmgg -- 11
dmushrush -- 12
Way to go assholes. 
In the "I coulda been a contendah," category, with points enough to at least prove they showed up more than once, we have...
climbingtrash -- 37
scottk67 -- 42
mojomonkey -- 52
wallwombat (who did actually only show up once) -- 59
kennoyce -- 60
boymeetsrock -- 66
And finally, the top three finishers. These guys consistently brought the worst of RC.com to light, exposing the soft, seedy underbelly of climbing (and not so much climbing) photography on the Inturdwebz.
In third place... he showed impressive consistency, but perhaps spent a little too much time digging through the archives to find things that didn't count anyway... with 88 points...
crrrrrraaaaaack-loverrrrrrrr!
And in second place, the guy who came up short right at the end, after an impressive show of force, we have the southern suckah... the Texas transplant... the thundah from down undah... with 96 points...
kachoooooooooog! (gesundheit)
Last, but definitely not least, this guy really brought the heat at the very end of the show. He dug deep to find the crap kachoong and cracklover wish they had found. Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the 2010 Worst Photos of RC.com Competition and proud future wearer of the coveted climbingtrash.com climbing revolution T-shirt... I give you the first five letters of your English keyboard... with a whopping 138 points...
QWEERRRRRRR-T!
On behalf of precisely nobody at RC.com corporate headquarters and all the poor schmucks whose finest work from behind the lens was represented herein, thank you for tuning in to the 2010 Worst Photos of RC.com Competition. Stay tuned for 60 Minutes.

This was a fun competition J_ung. Good idea! And thanks to climbingtrash for putting the carrot on the end of the sick!
Damn, I coulda been a contendah !!!
4th place and I didn't even have half the points of first place. Gotta wake up pretty early in the morning to beat the Germans though.

i'm just sayin that the format rewarded the people who are on here 8 hours a day, every day!
i would suggest that round two would simply be based on a top 3 submisisons per person format, or other somesuchnotrewardingtheslackasschumpswhocan'tlogoff format...

Indeed, one might even say that you, briclimbs and the other cellar dwellers are the only ones who understood the true meaning of this thing, namely, rewarding a lackluster, half-hearted effort. I salute you all!

If so... then some concrete and more elaborate rulez are in need.
....not sure what those rulez are yet.... but we need them!
For one though I think photo database mining should be allowed, just to keep the "quality" of the pics of a low sub-standard... but should only be given 1/2 a point or sumpthin'.

That sounds good. We probably need to add points for photochopping, too.

I was the best of the worst. Or the top loser. Or something.
