onlyweaknesskryptonite Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Wonder how many will drop out this round after seeing the results from the last round.. thirdgreenham, flashlites and BladeTX 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator CGC Mike Posted February 9, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted February 9, 2022 I see a few people have mentioned they felt the scans were poorer quality than the first round. When I click on these images twice, I get a larger scan that looks to be a nice, quality scan. I always view the boards at 125% I don't know if that makes a difference or not. So, I would like some feedback regarding the scans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I would like some feedback regarding the scans. This round I can't get an image that's as clear as the first round. Two clicks gets a large image, then you can zoom in using software. Could be some hidden surprises that you can't be sure about this way. But.... everyone is looking at the same scans, so it's a level playing field.

So, I experimented with this today. Of course that was after I did all the scans for round 3, and posted them in the thread. This does convert them to a board compatible, jpeg/jpg image. Although, I haven't viewed them in a thread yet. I will post a few in a thread. If they are like the ones in the first round, I will try to re-do the images for the next round.

PINWHEEL Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Much tougher this round, at least I think so. Lot's of little things I'm curious to see how they reflect in the final grades. Thanks Mike for doing the heavy lifting to give us all a good time and challenge how we view grading. thirdgreenham and Point Five 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
