I saw my first CGC slab in 2016 so I can't complain. You did AWESOME!! comicquant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thirdgreenham Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Remember folks, the selecting of prizes starts tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM EDT. The Prize Thread is in Comics General. The top winners could pick tonight, if they wanted to, after the final standings are released. There will be a certain time limit for picking your prize, once your turn comes up, so please consider getting me a list of prize numbers (in order of your preference) beforehand. If you don't do this, and you're not there to pick a prize, your turn will be skipped over until you show up to choose a prize. Please create a new PM with me, if you're going to send me your list of prize picks. Thanks! Point Five and greggy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordRahl Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Wow they hammered that B&B hard. That's an 8.0/8.5 book without the stain... all the way down to a 3.5 Thanks for all the work Andy and Shin. It's been a blast as always. 01TheDude 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should be by the boards tomorrow anyway to see what everyone picks up.... or do we have to wait for the results to determine any of the above....?

That's an 8.0/8.5 book without the stain... all the way down to a 3.5 But it looked like the staining went right through all the pages, right? And not discreetly. That's a big problem no matter how nice the book is otherwise. My first thought was 2.5/3.0 range, as that's what I would feel comfortable grading it... but it looked so nice and bright that I swung for the fences and guessed CGC said 4.0.

sckao Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Round 10 Results are up! Congrats to everyone who finished the journey! FINAL RANKINGS will be up later tonight! (This is how the PRIZE PICKING ORDER is determined.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01TheDude Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 15 minutes ago, sckao said: So this is what will happen... We will have the Regular Round 10 Results. Then we will have FINAL RANKING thread. There are NO TIES in the Final Ranking. Ties are broken by the NUMBER OF BULLSEYES, THEN NUMBER of 3 POINT ROUNDS, THEN NUMBER OF 1 POINT ROUNDS. IF there is still a tie, then the ROUND of the FIRST BULLSEYE is the Tiebreaker and so on... Good luck everyone. and what will you do about oakman and kav? aha! they did it simply to make you have to create a new rule! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to say that going forward, we shouldn't have any consultation with other boardies, before you submit your grades. In PM, after you give your grades, sure you can shoot the siht, but beforehand should be considered a no no. kav and greggy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not accusing them of doing this though oak might have spilled the beans earlier in the 10 thread. I am merely pointing out that the tie breaker rules as they stand are insufficient to determine who finishes ahead of the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
