  2. Don't talk about the books when the books are in play. @trmoore54
  3. I responded to everyone who submitted grades. If you didn't get a reply, PM me.
  4. I get what JollyComics is saying. I think the Final Four is too late in the Tournament to award a contestant a BYE. Winners of each of the three brackets going head-to-head for the Final makes more sense.
  5. Printer's creases are horizontal, and the nut sack crease was more vertical. Just want to point that out. All scans and pictures are post-press. The presser who pressed that book was able to extremely reduce the nut sack crease to what I showed in the photo.
  6. Another reminder, the scoring is different from here on out. It is explained in the first post of the next round.
  7. Just a reminder, click the large scans a couple of times to get the max size.
  8. Use this format when supplying grades: AQUA RTRNR TWB X-MEN
  9. Welcome to the March Madness Grading Tournament - Round of 96 Rules for this and future rounds: 1. Do not talk about the books in this thread or any other thread. Do not talk to your wife about these books. Do not talk to your friends about these books. Do not talk to your dog about these books. 2. Four books will be posted. PM me all grades in the order they are listed. Use the template I provided to send the grades 3. Submit your grades in standard CGC recognized increments. 4. Due date for grades for this round is Sunday, March 17th at 10:00p (EST) or when the last team submits its grades. All grade submissions are final. 5. No conditional grades will be accepted. Please ask questions to seek clarification before submitting grades.6. The following is a list of things I will always disclose when posting the scans. A. Any defects not clearly visible. (ie. NCB creases) B. Moisture Stains not apparent on the scan. C. Damage to a book which was not present at the time of grading. D. Any damage/ scratches on the CGC case which may appear as flaws on the book. 7. Your score will be tallied based on the sum of the points awarded for the grades assigned each book based on the chart below: Spot on= 20 points .2 or closer = 18 points .5 or closer= 15 points .7 or closer= 10 points 1 or closer = 7 points. 1.2 or closer= 5 points. 1.5 or closer= 2 points 2 or closer = 0 points Over 2 grades off= Technical Foul -5 points Bonus (cumulative): 2 books spot on= 5 points 3 books spot on=10 points The Team with the highest score wins the game and advances. There will be an overtime book posted in the event of a tie. Good Luck to everyone.
