:news::acclaim:Welcome to the March Madness Grading Tournament Round of 32. :acclaim::news:

 

Congratulations to the teams who have advanced :applause:(worship) and thanks to all who have participated. :acclaim: We have a very exciting round of play in store. The Southwest is in disarray and wide open with major upsets leaving #4 Flee-Marquette as the highest ranked team. Marquee games will be between Thirdgreenham and Porky in the NE, and Thehumantorch and Burntboy :flamed: in the NW.

 

Rules for this and future rounds:

 

1. Four books will be posted. PM me all grades in the order they are listed. Associate the book with the grade and include your username in the body of the PM.

 

2. Submit your grades in standard CGC recognized increments.

 

3. Due date for grades is Thursday March 22, 11:00 PM PST or when the last team submits its grades. All grade submissions are final.

 

4. No conditional grades will be accepted. Please ask questions prior to Thursday to seek clarification before submitting grades.

 

5. The following is a list of things I will always disclose when posting the scans.

A. Any defects not clearly visible. (ie. NCB creases)

B. Moisture Stains not apparent on the scan.

C. Damage to a book which was not present at the time of grading.

D. Any damage/ scratches on the CGC case which may appear as flaws on the book.

 

6. Your score will be tallied based on the sum of the points awarded for the grades assigned each book based on the chart below:

 

Spot on= 20 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

 

 

The Team with the highest score wins the game and advances. There will be an overtime book posted in the event of a tie.

 

Good Luck to everyone.

My seed in the SW Division should also be 14 in the second round, not 15.

 

What Jeffrey also meant to say was "My name is also misspelled..."
