Thanks Toro! I expected not to do well, but I've learned a ton about grading from this. Winning a prize would have been a nice bonus, but I'm just glad I got to experience it.

 

Congrats on your terrific performance!!

wait-- you don't know there is a boobie prize for finishing last? I thought you were sandbagging to keep in last place having played all rounds.

Are you serious? If you're not pulling my leg, then no. I really didn't know that.

 

Not sandbagging...just sucking. :)

 

Not kidding around--- I thought this was in this rules part before the contest started.

 

I'm sure the contest folks will let you know.

Hello, my friends! :hi:

 

Welcome to the 2nd annual CGC Green Eggs Grading Contest. :whee:

 

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 sckao and I your answers via the group PM that I have created for us. 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. If you have not received a PM from me, and have signed up, please let me know right away.

 

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. The scans that you are viewing will be of the book already in its CGC case.

 

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 to a certain number of players. This will be dependent on the number of prize donations that we receive. Feel free to donate a book, if you would like. (thumbs u

 

The PRIZE THREAD is located in Comics General.

 

Also,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.) As always, many thanks to sckao who has agreed to help me with the score keeping and all the other fun stuff that comes with these contests. (worship)

Thanks to Andy and Shin for taking the time and effort to put together a first class tourney! Had lots of fun and learned where my grading weak points are, and even got to hang out in the top ten for while!

 

Did someone say semi-annual grading contest??

Thanks to all of you contestants! Without having the players, it would be a pretty darned boring tournament.

 

It is always a ton of work, but a blast!

 

Most importantly, a never-ending supply of thank you's to sckao (Shin) for his irreplaceable help with codes, charts, PMs, recording of grades, witticism and commentary. (worship)

 

Thank you, my friends. See you next year!

 

Please check the Prize Thread in Comics General. Even if you didn't place very high, we have over 50 prizes to give out. Pay attention as there will be a time limit for you to pick your prize. Details to follow, tomorrow in the prize thread. (thumbs u
