Thanks for providing the first chart :thumbsup:

[*Bronze age fan*]

I am glad 17 other people thought the Avengers was a 9.0.

ROUND 1 Commentary

 

The 2013 CGC Green Eggs Grading Contest starts with a whimper and not a bang as almost everyone stumbles out of the gate except for cujobyte and DWL.

 

Larger Scans loom on the horizon as all contestants get their bearings and scrutinize their competition.

 

Round 1 is best left forgotten. On to Round 2!

 

 

 

 

[Point Five]

Round 1 is best left forgotten.

Speak for yourself. For one brief shining moment I'm ahead of board heavyweights like Toro.

This may be the only round I'll want to remember!

I'm blaming the small scans

[Aces]

Up to my usual tricks, off by one on both.

 

I almost went with 3.5 on the bats....

 

[Aces]

How the Frick did half the people here give the Avengers 6 8.5 or higher with all the chipping at the bottom!?

Come on! You guys are suppose be better than eBay graders.

Honestly i thought it was overspray from the small scans, hence a production defect. Maybe staining but since it was only there i thought overspray was more likely. I didn't even think it might be chipping since it's usually on the right.

 

Should have saved and blown them up. Lesson learned.

I am really really really surprised that the Batman 17 is a 3.5. I gave it a 2.0

Don't worry.

When he pulls out a copper 9.2/9.4/9.6/9.8 book I'll be way off too.

 

Grades for round 2 sent!

[Old Fashion PB and J]

Those books were both over graded, and I didnt factor the GA bump!

Thats what I did. Next time there will be a bump!
