Grades are due by August 10th 8:00 PM eastern time. Good luck! The reveal of the actual CGC grades will be posted shortly after the round is closed, with scans of the books in their CGC holders. Click on the image to supersize it. In the event that there is still a tie, This criteria will be used to determine the final rankings. If #1 doesn't reveal a winner, #2 will be used ect... 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 Here are the people participating in the tiebreaker round: @Morganmi @batcollector Will participate in the tiebreaker round for first and second place. @Withering Wind @pastandpresentcomics @CJ Design will participate in the tiebreaker round for 3rd place. Please copy this list of books and paste it into our PM, then post your grades on the same line. Action Comics #246 Amazing Spider-Man Annual #8 X-Men #75

Here are the rules. Please read them carefully. There will be 4 rounds with 5 books per round. After the deadline for the signup thread has ended, I will start a new thread in the hey buddy can you spare a grade section, scans of the first 5 books will be posted, and I will start a PM thread between myself and each participant. Be sure to use THIS PM thread to submit your grades every round. I will post a list for the books in the thread where the books are posted for each round. Please copy and paste that list into our PM, and add the grades for each book. Only CGC grades (numerical) will be accepted. Non CGC grades like fine+ or Very fine- will not be accepted. Be sure to follow the threads that the books are posted in. This is the only way you will know when the next round starts. There will be no update when the next round begins sent to our PM thread. All of the threads with the books and the results will be posted in the hey buddy can you spare a grade section. You will have 4 days to get your grades in. After I record your grades, I will reply to the PM thread so you know that your grades have been recorded. Only grades from .5 to 9.8 will be accepted. Grades of 9.9 and 10.0 that are received, will be recorded as a 9.8 Please do not bump the PM for any reason other than submitting your grades. Nobody will be allowed to change their grades. Do not discuss your grades with others in the thread until the round is closed. Also, please do not ask any questions about the books publicly or privately (by sending me a PM) . If I am provided any special notes from CGC, I will share them in the thread. If anyone fails to submit their grades for a round, or do not submit grades for all of the books in a round, their participation in the contest will be terminated. You will be able to participate in the next contest. After the 4 days are up and the round is closed, I will post scans of the books in CGC holders to reveal their grades, and include the graders notes for the books. A new thread will be started to show the results of each participant. The results thread will most likely be started the next day. There will be a new thread started for the next round. This thread will most likely be started within an hour after the prior round has ended. 0 points is the best score one can achieve. 1 point will be added to your score for each grade that is higher or lower than the actual grade. If the actual grade for the book is 5.0 and you guess 4.0, your score for that book is 2. If the actual grade for the book is 5.0 and you guess 6.0, your score for that book is 2. If the actual grade for the book is 5.0 and you guess 5.0, your score for that book is 0. CGC will be awarding Grading Credit. $500 for 1st place, $250 for 2nd place and $100 for 3rd place.

Going forward, I can provide a copy of the spreadsheet that you can copy and paste in each of the end of round results threads.

I hope to have the results around 9:30 tonight.

When we start the next round, the actual grades for each book are added to the spreadsheet. Before I add people's grades, the score is high. It goes down as I add grades. I am not sure how I can give a list any different than the last round they participated in. I'll take a look and see if anything different can be done.

I found our PM. Your grades were not sent. Sorry.

Could you bump our PM?

First of all, I would like to thank @Get Marwood & I for going through the signup thread, and coming up with a list of participants for me. That saved me hours of time. I would also like to thank @zzutak for the commentary he does for each round. That adds to the fun of the contest. Thank you @Superman2006 for the ranking of all participants. That also adds to the fun. Thanks to the team that supplies me with all of the scans of the books, and helps with the spreadsheet for each round. Also, thanks to everyone for the kind words posted in the PM or one of the threads. That is greatly appreciated. This round is closed. The reveal is coming in a few, followed by the graders notes. I hope to have the results posted tomorrow night. If a tiebreaker round is necessary, I will compose one shortly after the results. There will be 3 books. If that doesn't give us clear winners, I will use the final ranking list.

I currently have 19 PM's with grades that I will record after the reveal.

I had you both written on paper, but were not in the spreadsheet. If I flagged anyone else that have already submitted, let me know. Apparently a few were deleted by mistake.

I agree it would be a shame. I guess I could do that.

That may remain a mystery unless the person comes forward in the thread.

Still waiting on grades from: @1337pino @AJD @Axelrod @Azkaban @bighairjer @Black_Adam @boron @brumil190 @CJ Design @comicginger1789 @Cushing Fan @Deputy Dan @Doctor Dositheus @ElrodAllWrong @Every Day A Story @genrlzod @goldust40 @grendelbo @Hudson @jcjames @Jesse-Lee @JohnH19 @JustJimN @KryptoMayor @mattn792 @Morganmi @Nsschenks @old_dano @Panda2 @pmpknface @Ron C. @stynxno @WernerVonDoom @WilliamLunt

So far, 62 participants have submitted their grades. Be sure you have sent me actual CGC grades. If I receive a 4.6 for 1 book, I will not be able to record any of your grades. Check your PM's.

Absolutely. Thanks for doing this.

Moved to the Ask CGC section.

Here is a link to the pedigrees we recognize. https://www.cgccomics.com/resources/pedigree/

So far, only 41 participants have submitted their grades.

I'll move this thread to the Ask CGC section, as customer service would know more about this than me.

The book can be submitted as a ME.
