B. Moisture Stains not apparent on the scan.
C. Damage to a book which was not present at the time of grading.

7. Your score will be tallied based on the sum of the points awarded for the grades assigned each book based on the chart below:

Spot on= 20 points
.2 or closer = 18 points
.5 or closer= 15 points
.7 or closer= 10 points
1 or closer = 7 points.
1.2 or closer= 5 points.

The Team with the highest score wins the game and advances. There will be an overtime book posted in the event of a tie.

Good Luck to everyone.

CC - Note:  I pressed this book then scanned it.  The scan is below.  After I scanned it, I noticed it needed another press.  So I pressed it a second time and forgot to re-scan it.  So I am including the book in the slab.

not that it matters in terms of the tournament, but do you press your own books? Just curious and a little in awe that you have that type of skill.

The way they wrote that comment made me think they were doing the pressing themselves-- which would be interesting to know.

Is it just me or are the books getting harder to grade?! Gonna have to pour over me personal bible to see if I can get another perfect round.

Now that I have all of the books in my possession, I will be scanning and posting them in their respective threads.  That is, I will show all of the grades of the books used in the seeding round, Round of 96, etc.

Grades in! I think I bombed big-time.  The books were tough for me to grade coupled with going up against a #1 seed was too much for me to handle.

Grades in!
