196 posts in this topic

Hello my friends! :hi:

 

With greatest respect and a tip of my hat to Nik, I would like to offer, for your enjoyment, the 2nd annual CGC Green Eggs Grading Contest. :whee:

 

On Tuesday, July 1st, I will officially start this grading contest over in the "Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?" section of the boards.

 

 

This here is the sign up thread, for all interested. Everyone is welcome to join in. Please post here if you would like to play in this contest. (thumbs u

 

1.) You will see 2 books per round, for 10 rounds.

 

2.) There will be a 48 hour time limit between rounds. Look at the books; figure out the grades and PM the persons collecting the grades by way of a group PM. This will be the same PM thread you will use to submit all future grades. Please do not create a new PM for each grade submission. I will be initiating all of the PMs on the day the contest starts.

 

3.) No changing of grades will be allowed once submitted. Post only single, numerical grade for each book. If you post more than one grade (e.g. 8.5/9.0) then your submission for that round will be void. No excuses. As there will be 2 books per round, make it clear which grade is for which book. For example, say ASM #1 4.5 and on the next line say FF #12 8.0. Please don't screw this up. 2c

 

4.) The page quality and any noticeable defects you can not see on the book from the scan will be given for each round. Do not PM with questions. Assume that all of the books have been pressed.

 

5.) Points awarded will be as follows; 5 points for a direct hit, 3 points for 1 grade off, 1 point for 2 grades off and -1 point for 3 grades off. If you are 4 grades off or more, I'm going to hit the "notify moderator" button.

 

6.) Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers. Plus,a booby prize will be given for last place. Last place is defined as the person who has participated in all the rounds and has the lowest score. You can not sign up, do nothing and win the booby prize.

 

7.) Again, special thanks to sckao who has agreed to help me with the score keeping and the behind-the-scenes hard work. (worship)
