It's says that the graemlins they send you is nothing but random BS and means nothing!

 

Nope, up to Round 9 it was very consistent. If Sacko sent you a reply, you were close and if JoeyPress sent one, you were DOA.

 

After the pattern was posted a few times, they seem to have mixed it up a bit.

 

Vince, Shin never asks for a bit of credit, but he is the technical support behind EVERY charity auction, and Joey...not only participates , but he's extremely generous....

 

These guys just went out of their way to do something positive for the forums...(even if I suck at it;) It was meant as a positive action...

 

While you just kvetch a lot lately (look it up)

 

You are smarter than that, these comments are really beneath you... :(

 

I know what would change my opinion of Vince. He needs to make a $100 donation at the end of this contest to the Heroes Initiative. Considering all the birthday and christmas money he hordes this should not be an issue.

 

He can send it to my paypal account and I will add 50% to the total in his behalf. It is a win-win-win scenario for all involved. What do you say Vince? Time to put up or shut up now, eh.

 

 

I'm guessing you weren't around for the last time he whelched on a $100 donation to them, but surely you noticed how immediately after the deadline for donations to the last charity drive was announced, someone posted how he really had wanted to find something to donate.

There are 30 possible grades ?

 

24.

 

25 (thumbs u

 

 

 

 

 

Or 26 if you count NG. :insane:

 

I was diverting;)

 

See, it made everyone COUNT! :acclaim:

 

 

I thought you were accounting for a few non-purple grade guess possibilities.

 

Well, if I made it too easy, where was the challenge?

 

Plus...did anyone count PLOD and GLOD grades? with those, there are more than 30 total possibilities :baiting::acclaim:

 

Can there be Apparent & Qualified NG's ... hm

hmmm..using my own calculation

 

round 9 - Net Over

round 8 - Net Under

round 7 - Net Over

round 6 - Net Under

round 5 - Net Under

round 4 - Net Under

round 3 - Net Under

round 2 - Net Over

round 1 - Net Under

 

Not a surprise that those rounds with high graded books had net undergraders and the opposite is true for the low to mid grade books...draw your own conclusions :shy:

"excellent....excellent"...now where did I hear that line before in a movie or cartoon.

 

I watched too much cartoons these days with my almost 4 years old :shy:

I would.... but this could skew some people's guesses for future rounds.

 

For ROUND 10 we will just highlight people whom you should buy RAW comics based on how they're doing in the Grading Contest. (thumbs u

 

 

For instance, based on Contest data only, DR.X, towards2112, and gorgoguy all have my undivided attention the next time they have a sales thread in the Marketplace. :baiting:

 

 

The new ROUND 10 indicator is MOST GRADES OFF which just shows you how far off contestants are, not whether they are undergraders or overgraders.
