  1. I'll start working on a new one...so the 5 minute warning is coming soon.
  2. That was fun. I have to get lunch going, but I'll be back soon.

  4. The Grading Game Round 2 Coming in 5 minutes.
  5. I'll go work up another one...it actually takes quite a while.
  6. By the way, you can embiggen those pics by clicking on them twice. They get HUGE.
  7. The Grading Game Round 1 Coming in 5 minutes.
  8. PS - I don't have tons of before and after scans laying around, so the pics in 2) above would be cropped HA pics without wedges. I think this might actually be a good thing, since a lot of people are a little shy about their grading abilities. In other words, this game has a LOT of guessing involved (you are viewing the book through the case), AND it's timed. And, obviously, as we all know, you can't ACTUALLY grade a book without having it 'in hand.' So this game is just for fun, and no one should be shy about posting a grade.
  9. Grading Game Proposal So here's how I propose it would work: 1) I announce that a new grading round is coming up in 5 minutes. 2) After exactly 5 minutes, I post the round. The round will consist of one front and one back scan/pic of a single comic book. 3) Players will have exactly 5 minutes to post their grade guesses. At the end of 5 minutes, I will post a STOP sign. No guesses will be accepted after the STOP sign. 4) I will then reveal the CGC scan/pic showing the grade. 5) One point will be awarded to the closest guess. In the event of a tie, one point will be awarded to each player. What do you think?
  10. I've been thinking about getting a simple Grading Game going. Any interest? I'll toss out some ideas after I eat my breakfast.
  11. Hope you're feeling better today. Definitely keep an eye on your temperature the next couple of weeks. I thought I had one the other day, took my temp and it was 97.3 F (which is normal for me); sometimes it's difficult to know unless you're actively measuring it.
  12. Thanks man. It's giving me something to do while I'm 'sheltering-in-place.'
