I was the opposite. I graded the Cap way too low because of the big black stain on the back lower left corner. lol

 

Well played David, I'll do my best to keep our namesake in as long as possible. Hit me up if you're heading to WonderCon this year, your beers are on me down at the Thirsty Bear Brewing Company. :headbang:

 

The gingers will rise again . . .

I'm not sure but I think there was an error on my score?

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

 

Answer Key...Scans and scores later:

 

Captain America 197 9.0

Fantastic Four 65 8.5

Fantastic Four 70 9.4

Tales of Suspense 82 9.0

 

My scores

Captain America #197 OW-W (1/4" very light NCB Crease URFC) 9.0 (20 pts)

Fantastic Four #65 W 8.5 (20 pts)

Fantastic Four #70 W 9.2 (15 pts)

Tales of Suspense #82 OW 9.0 (20 pts)

PLUS 10 bonus points for the three Bullseyes

 

Shouldn't I have 85? :shrug:

Did you edit your PM?

I did. I checked to see if my original PM sent had been read. It stated it was unread by you, so I changed one or two of the scores. Had the message stated unread by none I wouldnt have attempted it. My understanding was that you couldn't changed once you had entered it, but since the PM stated it hadnt been read by you, I figured it was ok.

You realize that he probably asked for USER NAMES in the body of the PM because he gets his PMs sent to his outside email right?

 

So any changes made to your PM would not be in the original PM email. (shrug)

 

You still won though. (thumbs u

That makes sense then. The grades are not recorded from the PM's, they are recorded from the original e-mail notification that I receive containing the PM. If your name is not attached to your PM, I log onto the chat board to look at the time it was received to match it up, and frequently, I don't open the PM's until much later and clear them out. This protects the integrity of the contests. The PM editing system is flawed for this contest because it doesn't record when a PM is edited or notify me of an edit. That is why the rules state that all submissions are final.
