Avengers #95 -- 9.0 oops!

Fantastic Four #47 -- 9.4 got it!

Iron Man #56 -- 9.6 got it!

Marvel Premiere #3 -- 8.5 ouch!

Avengers -- 9.6

FF -- 9.0 (that top edge on the BC killed me. It's not only bent, but I swear there's a tear)

IM -- 9.6 (bingo)

MP -- 9.8

 

My total score: 60

VK's total score: 57

here's my picks

 

Avengers 95 OW-W Pages 9.2

Fantastic Four 47 OW Pages 8.5

Iron Man 56 White Pages 9.0

Marvel Premiere 3 OW-W Pages 9.6

 

I think you scored 15 pts, 5 pts, 7 pts, 20 points for a total of 47 points.

 

My picks:

Avengers #95 CGC 9.4

Fantastic Four #47 CGC 8.5 (due to that BC edge)

Iron Man #56 CGC 9.4

Marvel Premiere #3 CGC 9.2

 

I think I scored 20 pts, 5 pts, 15 pts, 10 pts for a total of 50 points.

 

If so, I barely squeaked by... :foryou:

My total score: 50

VK's total score: 52

 

Despite being 1.2 off on the Marvel Premiere, you take the round, VK. Congrats.

 

I went from the Final Eight last year to being out in the first round this year. doh!

 

I don't think so...

 

Your grades: 15, 10, 20, 15 = 60 points

 

VK = 10, 20, 20, 2 + 5 bonus pts = 57 points

 

 

Somehow, you GOT both scores wrong.... doh!

 

4. Your score will be tallied and compared to your opponent's score as follows:

 

Spot on= 20 points

Within .2= 15 points

Within .5 or closer= 10 points

Within .7 or closer =7 points

Within 1 or closer= 5 points.

Within 1.2 = 2 points.

 

Bonus (cumulative):

2 books spot on= 5 points

3 books spot on=10 points

doh!doh!

 

Man, there's no excuse for my 4 AM math skills. But here goes:

 

Had 25 people here for dinner last night, and I couldn't get to sleep after they left. So my brain is like a sieve right about now.

 

But thanks for the correct scores! :whee:

 

I had 15-10-20-15 written down for me, but I kept seeing it as a total of 50, not 60.

 

And for VK, I forgot about the bonus points for 2 books spot on.

My grades via iPhone netted me 65 hoops. Hopefully enough to get through the round of 64. We'll see.

 

Well I got 52 from my iPhone subbed grades.

 

Over and out from the loser.

at the end of regulation (Pending review of replay)

 

All the top seeds advanced, and ckp1680 tied the tournament high score! (worship)

 

Please PM me any questions about your score. I had a five year old bouncing off the walls yesterday during all the data input, so I freely admit I could have made a mistake somewhere.

...statistical factlets for those who are interested.

 

Book Avg. Grade/ Actual Grade

 

Avengers 95 9.1/9.4

FF 47 8.9/9.4

IM 56 9.5/9.6

MP 3 9.4/9.6

 

The most common grade assigned the FF 47 was 8.5.

 

The average score was 52.

 

Interestingly, after having done this for going on three years now, I find that the average grade assigned is almost never higher than the CGC grade. (shrug)
