2014 March Madness Comic Grading Tournament - Seeding Round

439 posts in this topic

Sums are good, and I was just making sure the seeding method wasn't being used, as it can't work in head-to-head.

 

Some guy with a 12-2 record who missed every single book could hypothetically eliminate someone with a 27-3 record and 6 bullseyes.

The main thing to remember with a scoring system like this is the extremely low and extremely high grade books are where the real money is, as you can gain or lose a LOT of points, while anything between 2.0 and 9.0 is much less important and fewer point options.

 

I ended up with a 12-2 record....and missed every....single....book. lol

 

:gossip: I undergraded 6 of them.

My iPhone quick picks

 

Action - 1.8 Correct

Green Lantern - 4.0. Correct

 

Lois Lane - 7.5. Correct

MSH - 6.0 1.0 off

Red Headed Girl - 9.6 0.2 off

X-Factor 5 - 9.4 0.2 off

X-Factor 6 - 9.4 Correct

X-Men - 7.0 1.0 off

 

So

4*3=12 + 3 bonus = 15 wins

2*2= 4 wins

2*-1 = 2 losses

 

So 19-2 ???

 

Oh look at me... I did my picks quick on the iPhone and ended up 19-2! Well lah dee dah!! :baiting:

I'll have the results of the seeding round up soon.

 

The bracket will appear sometime today.

 

The next round of books will be posted after 5p (EST).

 

Has any of this happened yet or am I jumping the gun?

That's okay, Blowie. It's not like you told us how long after 5p (EST) it was going to be.

I feel like I played a respectable 11-3.

1 bulls-eye the Action to lead off...

4 within .5

Started grades at bullseye for 3 books and down-graded...

Had the LL 76 at 6.5 but started at 7.5 :frustrated:

My three -1s were all exactly 1.0 off... :pullhair:

 

Which is a little weird on the last note...same score if you're like 2 or 3 off... hm

 

Let the games begin! :banana:

Respectable...and in the game :sumo:

 

I'm sure with as many teams entered that there will be quite a few boardies with 20+ wins...

Sorry... haven't checked the boards all day. Some of you who posted your own scores AREN'T on the actual list like Revat. Blowupthemoon should have the data now to generate the brackets.

It isn't March anymore and the madness has been treated by a credentialed behavioral health specialist. Let's rename this puppy!
