Reading between the lines of many of the postings, it seems that many povers
were intimidated by having a whole year ("a whole year and that was the best
you could do?"). I mean, just because you have a year, that doesn't mean
you're going to do nothing else but work on one picture.

For me, it was a nice opportunity - I have a family, etc, etc., and the
extended period meant I could find the free-time needed to complete a
picture.

Perhaps everyones expectations were unrealistic - both of themselves and of
others?
