Well, not too bad. Looks I only overgraded once and it was one grade off, 3 dead hits, and the rest only undergraded by 1. Looks like I got around 32 points or so, and if the winning score was 40, I guess I did well enough to hold my own here :shrug: :)

36. whoopee. it was totally worth the wait.

 

got the two Iron Man books exactly backwards, or i would have had 44. can't see how book four got a 9.6 and book 2 only a 9.2...unless the gook in the logo of book 2 is what did it.

 

or back cover damage. :tonofbricks:

You nailed alot of your own scores. On the other hand, I didn't. Here's my breakdown:

 

 

5x5 = 25

4x3 = 12

1x(-3) = -3

37+ (-3) = 34

 

I was way off on book one (8.5) that gave me that -3

I got a 36 too. I was within one step on every book except the WH 10. I had that at an 8.5....what a gift at 9.2!

 

Fun contest Nik. (thumbs u

I made it easy, I guessed 9.4 across the board except for a 9.0 on that JIM.

 

Still ended up with 33 points

I should have done that!!! Only nailed one. :sorry:

 

But only off by one on 8. Missed by 2 on one! Only got a 30!
