In contest sumbittion page, anyone can rate entries. One who already submitted for perticular contest can vote 1 star(lowest) to entries submitted by other individuals. This in fact reduces overall rating of others.

for Example ,:

if i rate my own entry as 5 star and no one else rated. my entry now have 5 star rating. If i vote 1 star to every other opponent , it reduces their rating.

Please fix this.

  Hi Jayakrishnan,

  Please read our terms regarding contests specifically the section that states:

  Buyers are not obliged to use the "Winning Entry". 

  https://www.peopleperhour.com/static/terms

  Therefore although it could have an overall impact on CERT scoring it shouldn't have an impact on the outcome of the contest itself. A poor entry that has been 'voted up', by friends perhaps, will still get rejected by any decent buyer because they will see it is still a poor entry and has been voted up. I will send your feedback to our product team anyway, though I doubt there is a way around this as all entries are anonymous.

  Please let me know if I can help with anything else.
