5th Annual March Madness Grading Tournament Round of 32

123 posts in this topic

I got smoke by Toro, as I had suspected. At least I made it through two rounds this year. :banana:

 

Good luck, Toro and mow 'em down!

Dang it, you was suppose to take him out.! :ohnoez:

Wow...

 

Surprised on the Kull and Thor!

 

Looked like that Kull could've had a spine split due to that corner and aside from the top of the Thor... what did I miss? :shrug:

Well, if Warlord's accurate, I won't make it past this round. I've got 52 points by my count. No bullseyes.

 

FF 105 8.5

IM 42 9.0

KULL 1 9.2

THOR 160 9.4

 

Whoa, won that round just by a whisker! Barely got lucky enough to get to 60! Sorry Shadow! BLNT!

Warlord said he sent me the answer key. (shrug)

 

And yet you didn't use them! It's kind of hard trying to win by virtue of my own abilities. :makepoint:

Congratulations ARK! Also, good luck in the rest of the contest. :wishluck:

 

Thanks Mike.

 

I feel lucky to grade books with most of guys on the boards. (worship)

 

Lets see if I can get back to my seeding round level of bullseyes. :wishluck:

He tried to take me out, but I told him I was a married man. :blush:

The gloves come off this round buddy.

Of course I wasn't wearing any gloves so I'll have to put some on to take them off.... But the gloves come off!!!

Can you give us at least until Monday night to turn in the grades?

I'm on my way out for the weekend and won't be back until Monday afternoon.

:news: SCORING REVISION FOR NEXT ROUND :news:

 

 

I looked Divad's scoring suggestion and did some play testing. Below is new scoring chart that will yield more accurate scoring results.

 

Spot on= 20 points

.2 off= 18 points

.5 or closer= 15 points

.7 or closer= 10 points

1 or closer = 7 points.

1.2 or closer= 5 points.

1.5 or closer= 2 points

2 or closer = 0 points

Over 2 grades off= Technical Foul -5 points

 

 

Bonus (cumulative):

2 books spot on= 5 points

3 books spot on=10 points

I'm embarrassed to be moving on with a score that would have lost every other matchup. The Human Torch and I obvously played the defensive Match of the Tourney and failed to break 100 combined points... :o

 

But as the saying goes; "that's the way the Ball bounces"... :grin:

 

Congrats Harry. You did enough to move on.

 

Good luck to the round of 16. (worship)

I got crushed...ran into a buzz-saw...can't seem to make it out of the 2nd round in this thing...no bulls-eyes...had the FF 105 no better than 8.5...went with 8.0... :tonofbricks:

 

CONGRATS to Jeffreykli! :applause:

 

Maybe your incoming Freshman will help you out next year. :insane:
