Only hammered by ONE judge? Lucky you! Most of us get hammered by TWO judges, just enough to screw up the "drop the low score" thing. :roll:
My assessment of that box is this: Too many varying sizes of chunks. Try to keep them all about the same size. The bark is not even... meaning at the top, the whole box looks like bark whereas the bottom, the bark is there and not in other places. The non-bark parts look dry to me. That's about all I can see wrong with it. Not a bad box overall. I'd give it a 7, maybe an 8 if I saw it in person.
