One note: Tell Photobucket to NOT RESIZE your scans to 1024 x whatever...

 

The width of 6XX+ is a little too small to note the errors. Thanks!

And here are the results:

 

Silvers 55 :banana:

Trmoore 45 :pullhair:

 

Blowupthemoon 50 :banana:

Abracadabra 45 :pullhair:

 

Turokhunter 45 :banana:

Marvelcollector 35 :pullhair:

 

Silvers, Blowupthemoon, and Turokhunter advance to the round of 32. I'll update the bracket and start a new thread for the next round. In the mean time, any of the 6 players can PM me if I have made a scoring error.

 

Thanks everyone for your participation, this wouldn't work without you. :applause:

WOW...I nailed 2 grades spot-on...was .2 off on the DD and blew the XM 114...I'm effed and I'm outa here... :frustrated:

 

Oh maybe I'll hang around to heckle the other ultimate 31 LOSERS! :insane:

 

Waitaminute...I've just double-checked and determined I had 55 points...2 spot-on = 40 points plus one within .2 = 15 points = 55 points...DOTHEMATH! I suppose I'll be told I lose out on farthest away on the fourth pick, which I must say was not stated as tiebreaker...holding on to the end... :o

 

Here's my submitted grades...

Here's my Play-In picks...in order of book appearance...

9.2 XM 126 bullseye 20 points

9.2 XM 114 bomb

9.0 MTU - Spidey vs Thing bullseye 20 points

9.2 DD 181 off by .2 15 points

I'm going to work this out via PM with Tom and Silvers. Technically, Tom is correct and scored 60. Due to the fact I posted the books in a different order than I wrote them, it caused this screw up. :tonofbricks:

:cloud9: First place but for just a second. :insane:

 

Way to Man-up and not complain about the screwup in the scoring (and an excellent score, BTW)........... (thumbs u

 

Aside from the mistake, this perfectly demonstrates the Beauty/Capriciousness of this type of contest. You would have kicked butt in both of the other games but were unfortunate to run into a buzzsaw in your matchup. (just like real college B-Ball......... :grin:)
