Well, my intended grade was 6.5 but the hole alerted me.

Yeah I saw the hole and what I thought was writing on the front cover red section, looked like a scribbled "A" or something so I hit that hard. I always hit hard on any kind of marking. On of the other books had a date stamp on it that I think was probably the LCS. Overall tho, I didnt do too bad this round. Good luck!

Is it me or was the stain/color rub on the cops arm to the left of the cuff links on TEC #32 removed?  Should we assume the grade is after a cleaning?

This was brought to my attention a few days ago, and I was assured that it caused no change in the grade.  It was a last minute decision during the grading to remove a tiny bit of crud off the book.  I have been assured that none of the other books in this contest or the last one had any cleaning or pressing done after the scans.  This is something that would rarely happen anyways.  The books for this round were acquired just a day before the round started.  They were imaged and this round started before the books were graded.  I have been assured that nothing like this would happen again.  I made it clear that I did not want anything like this to happen again.

Thanks for the clarification, it wouldn't of changed my grade anyways because I had the staple stress and creases lower than a stain anyways.
