Grades in

Just submitted my grades and I never read anything into the emoji's, but this can't be good.

Definitely some tough books this round. Maybe that's why I received the emoji last round in what must have been a bit of foreshadowing.

If it makes you feel any better-- I got the exact same one. And we both had the same points last round. We could both be toast. Who knows. DId you get for last round?

Grades in This could go really good or really bad ! Not much room for in between with the grades I submitted. Good luck Dan! I hope you had an easier time than I did with these books!

[flashlites]

I was so confident the moment I submitted my grades last night. But just minutes later ...the inevitable creep of doubt began, as seen in the "grades in" post above. It has now grown into a full blown panic of second guessing and self loathing, as I wish I could go back and change my grades. Alas my fate is sealed, the die has been cast, nothing but high anxiety and shear dread lay before me in the coming hours. Makes for great fun, kinda like a comic book roller coaster ride!!!    But hey, amazingly, i'm still in this thing! (for now anyway)

I have been holding off listing a prize in the contest prize thread as it usually jinxes me. But I finally broke down and donated one today so you should be safe.

Toro moaning he didnt do good is like a cat moaning about how the mouse will probably defeat him.

@toro is human-- perhaps he finally succumbed to the consistent need of contest organizers to throw these confusing emojis at players. Fun for them and often times maddening to the players (which is added fun for our tormentors--- err-- contest hosts).

I gave up trying to figure out what message was being conveyed with the responses. Sometimes good ones meant terrible results and vice versa - or they were accurate. They can also be random or everyone gets the exact same one. Best move is to just submit your guess and walk away from it for a few days. Second guessing never counts.
