  3. Sorry about that... Apparently, was there a ZERO GRADE book in the seeding round last year? If so, it screwed up this year's book 5 as the formula wasn't changed back to reflect a normal book.
  4. The problem is with BOOK 5 and people who submitted 3.5... BOOK 5 has a special notation on it. (Just saw the spreadsheet this morning...) One sec...
  5. Hmm. I hope you guys are just bad at scoring... Otherwise, there's a problem with the scoring. Comicquant got his right though.
  6. I'm kind of busy these days so I hope you guys weren't expecting instant results or brackets... (Unless @BlowUpTheMoon is handling that part )
  7. Thor #337 Newstand copies after reading about it in Comic Buyers Guide... I went around the local area grabbing up as many copies as I could from drug stores and 7-11s. November 1983 cover date
  8. No need for anything.... but thanks for the thought.
  9. Updated Results. ashsatyr now has a FINAL RANKING of 78. Please adjust accordingly if possible.

  11. FINAL Commentary What started many years ago as Nik's Grading Contest has now become the Green Eggs Grading Contest. The torch has been passed. In 2013, toro once again stepped up to claim the inaugural prize. When 2014 dawned, it was the Age of canickus, and he arose to seize the trophy, winning with a legendary 15 bullseyes out of a possible 20! 2015 saw toro storm back to reclaim his throne. TheGeneral laid waste to the competition and laid claim to 2016. Thus are the legendary grading contest stories born and passed from year to year, generation to generation. Now it is 2017. And so the clarion call to battle issues forth anew. From nearby towns to cities from far off lands, they come. From the far reaches of the Wintry north to the warm shores of the Southern Isles... all come to stake their claim once more and to compete for the Ultimate Prize. 126 Contestants. 20 Books. 10 Rounds. ONE Champion. Whether they were old hands trying once again or babes in the woods learning round after round, each found that this was not an ordinary Grading Contest. Nay, it was something far more. Low grade Golden and Silver Age books abounded! Super High Grade books were few and far between! Few realized that what they had stumbled upon was THE hardest Grading Contest to date! Some could not take the pressure and immediately dropped out. Others withdrew as the rounds grew tougher and the journey that much harder. We started with 126 challengers and we end with 101 challengers to see the journey to its climactic conclusion. The ROUNDS are now over. The Mathematically Eliminated Line has done its silent and deadly duty. Quiet floods the land once again. Weary eyes lift for the final judgment! In the end, THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE! Congratulations, toro, the 2017 CGC Green Eggs Grading Contest Champion! Special AWARD Winners SPECIAL DISTINCTION: NinjaSealed, who acquitted himself with honor never falling below Eigth Place! Honorable mention: Azkaban and mccollect, who never fell below 13th place WINNER OF LAST POSITIVE CONTESTANT IN A NEGATIVE ZONE: marmat Honorable mention: NinjaSealed, TheGeneral, LordRahl, Point Five, WINNER OF HARDEST WORKING PLAYER WITH THE LOWEST SCORE: Comics181 Honorable mention: Larryw7 WINNER OF THE BULLSEYE AWARD: Chillax23 (14) Honorable mention: comicquant, toro (13) WINNER OF THE MOST CONSISTENT PLAYER AWARD: NinjaSealed, TheGeneral, toro (17) Honorable mention: comicquant, jaeldubyoo (15) WINNER OF THE MOST GRADES OFF AWARD: Comics181 WINNER OF MOST IMPROVED PLAYER AWARD (MIP): LordRahl (116th to 7th place!)
