Hello This has been a problem for quite a while. When it takes you to the home page, try logging out of it. Then, go to the chat forum and login. After doing this, give it a few extra seconds. It may revert back to the sign in again before actually logging you in.

Hello You can send the CBCS slab to us in the holder although, you would need to select a grading tier. We don't reholder competitors books. Mike

Your commentary is much appreciated, @zzutak

Nothing is etched in stone yet but, I believe we have 3 extra books we can for a tiebreaker round. If that isn't enough, we will most likely use Shin's final rankings formula that was used in the Green Eggs contests. 1) Most Cumulative Bullseyes 2) Most Books off by 1 grade 3) Most Books off by 2 grades 4) First Book in order listed to get Bullseye 5) Second Book in order listed to get Bullseye

The results have been posted!

I think enough discussion and evidence has been posted so, I am locking both threads. If a HoS poll is started, leave the memes to home.

Lets get back to a more civilized discussion, or more people will be banned from this topic.

The results thread for round 3 won't be posted until tomorrow.

That is correct. If we decide to change the spreadsheet for future contests, I will let everyone know. In the meantime, no 9.9 or 10.0 books will be in the contests.

Thanks for the quick response. I thought so To be clear, 2 people sharing 1 account would be looked at on a case by case basis. 1 user having 2 different id's is absolutely not allowed.

No.

Hello We do have for sale forums here. It is important to follow our guidelines, which are located here. We do not allow people to solicit sales outside of the marketplace, so be sure to use the for sale section only, and refrain from going into discussion threads that are about books you have for sale and try to sell them there. The forum only selling area is broken down into 3 sections. Gold, silver and bronze Copper/Modern and Mixed age It would be important to posts your books in the right sections. I recommend checking out several other people's for sale threads, to give you an idea how to go about this, and what to expect. Mike

It does look a lot cleaner None of these books were cleaned and pressed after they were scanned. The raw images were darkened some to make the defects more visible.

Here's a link to the final round.
