Pretty happy with ROUND 1.  No bullseyes but .5 off on books 1/2/3 and 5.  Interesting on the BAT 248 book 4...is that not a bottom edge tear all the way through the book (??!!).  Had the book around 6.0/6.5 and dropped down on that.

And all my .5 grade differentials were on the over side not the under.  Interesting...if I'm computing accurately I'm at 3.5

Pretty sure that each step wrong counts as "1" not 1/2.  So guess at 5.0, book ends up 5.5, means add 1 to your score.

Agree about the Bats, the chip out of top edge on right side had my max grade at 5.5, even though it's a nice looking book overall.  But I didn't register the defect that looks like tear you noticed.

Yep.  A perfect score is 0  For each grade off, 1 point is added to your score.

I think I did OK?

Detective Comics #32 -- 6.5 (0.5 under)
Incredible Hulk #3 -- 4.5 (0.5 over)
Hawkman #1 -- 5.0 (1.0 under)
Batman #248 -- 6.0 (0.5 under)
Geheime Oorlogen (Foreign Edition Secret Wars #8) -- 5.5 (1.0 under)

I think of myself as an overgrader so I tried to be super tight.  I need to recalibrate a little.

2 Bulls and only 1 grade off on the rest, so maybe I have a fighting chance?

So...If the book grades a 5.0, and I guess 5.5, it's 1 point. But, if the next guy guesses 6.0, it's also 1 point?
