Yeah, when I submitted it, I didn't look to see if my reply showed up in our PM thread, I just hit submit, then closed it. Again, lesson learned!

So weird, I just opened up my PM with Mike and hit "reply" and my scores that I entered (but never submitted) popped up and said my reply was "restored". Apparently the PMs reply box will "time-out" just like entering a reply to a thread, so if you keep a reply box open too long, it won't submit it even if you hit submit button. It just clears it. Then when you re-open the reply box, it shows the text again. Ah well. In any case, these are the grades I had entered (but got timed-out) and never submitted. Chilling Tales #13 4.0 Diary Secrets #30 3.5 +3 Horrific #3 2.5 +1 Doctor Solar #1 5.0 Avengers #7 7.5 +1 Dang. This would have been good round for me if I had actually submitted the grades and they didn't get timed-out. Lesson learned, don't hold the PM reply box open all the while you're examining and grading each book. It will time-out and not be submitted even if you hit the submit button.

I feel your pain. I REMEMBERED to get my grades in, but apparently I forgot to hit the "submit" button. Would have been a good round for me too I believe, I think I would have gotten 5 pts this round.

Oh no. UGH!! Ah well. Thank you for the contest. It's always a challenge and fun.

I know I submitted them and then posted the frowning dog face in this thread. But now I don't see them in the PM

Wait. Did my grades get recorded? I don't see them in Mike's PM???

I bet it's more like 30 seconds at most looking at the cover (not counting resto-check). Moderns would get maybe a 5-10 second once-over. The volume of books they have to look at per hour would make it impossible to spend 2 minutes/book.

Great idea for a topic! 45 FF - 1st Inhumans 47 DCCP seems like a bigger key than MP 47, 51 FF - Key story & cover, 71 AV - 1st Invaders 93 TTA - 1st Silver Surfer outside of FF 99 TOS - Final Issue

Yet well-within striking distance of the top of the mid-pack! One more round...

This was an easier round I think - but I don't know WHAT I was seeing in that HoS to give it a 4.5 Maybe the top f/b cover chipping. I dunno.

Vary Nais!

7pts for me I think. HOS did me in. Motion Picture #110 6.5 +1 War Fury #1 3.5 +1 HoS #4 4.5 +3 Strange Tales #114 6.5 +1 FF Annual #6 8.0 +1

Stuxnet was da'bomb.

In...

Incoming this afternoon. Thank you for the heads up!

OGG says missing staples aren't over 3.0 I didn't know CGC published their grading criteria!

Harvey Library had >1" spine split PLUS a staple removed.

I gave that nice-looking HOS a 7.5 Stains???

I got 6pts also. And then I got another 5pts on that spine-split/staple-removed/"5.0"-Grader-Musta-Been-Doing-Dope thing.

Staple removed = 5.0

Love it!! "Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!" There is elegance in simplicity like these! Great set ups!
