Creating cool events to use partially (or even primarily) as new member drives is great. But it also changes the tone a heck of a lot. I'll still participate, but I worry it won't have the same camaraderie as past board grading contests. Still a great idea to bring new faces around.

Maybe some of the new people will fill in for some of the people who have left. I also think that $500 in grading credit might be a factor;) IvanGreebka, speedcake and thirdgreenham 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Feel free to boot me if you need to free up a slot. I'm bad at grading, and I'm not even American. I don't want the prize, I'm just doing it for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendelbo Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I'm hoping this contest drives more boardies to PGM. Maybe to practice. Maybe to stick around. Those who post would surely appreciate more feedback. Us graders would love more opinions and shared knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
