spidermanbeyond Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Ok, I was thinking 9.2 but went to 9.0 so off by 0.4. This is considered 2 grades off, same as 1.0 miss of 5.5 vs 6.5. That does not quite seem fair. One is way off the grade vs the other. Sorry, gotta complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, gotta complain. 9.0 to 9.4 is off by two grade increments. 5.5 to 6.5 is off by two grade increments. While this may not seem fair to you, this is the numbering system that CGC uses. In this case, it's only fair for us to use this system as well. If we used the 100 point system, then yes, you could guess 5.9 and potentially be off by .4 on those lower grades. greggy, Azkaban and 1950's war comics 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kav Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) that's what makes the game more exciting-you know once you get in the high grades you're really playing with fire! The pressure is incredible to get it right! Edited August 7, 2017 by kav oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stunk up round 3 I'm sure, I sat there and looked at obvious flaws and didn't take them into consideration! I think my mind was counting sheep for a minute it just said ooh look at that well that's neat, isn't that nice, and then exited the building Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent in that Asm 97 or 98 that you estimated a grade of VF at best in the PGM forum to cgc I should have it back in about a month, it was the one that had the obvious crease like you said that you used to get when you mail ordered online. If you don't remember don't worry... I'll try to update that thread when I get it back... Hahaha I was happy you estimated a grade and was looking to get it back in time for this grading contest so that you could have had some practice, BUT the LCS didn't send it off in time Edited August 7, 2017 by ADAMANTIUM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
