All I wanted was to not embarrass myself. Yay for being dead last!! I swear I had 5.5 and 4 in the last round then read the graders notes over and over until I talked myself into stupidly low guesses.

At least you're tied for dead last. It's nice having company down here for once. Got a drink?

Reveals coming up...

 

[Point Five]

6. Out of the Shadows #9

A bunch of you were savvier than me and nailed this one. In hand I was pretty sure of a 4.5... ah well. Such a pretty black cover and the gloss looks wet. Nice supple flat book, no spine splits. Guess it's one of those accumulation-of-small-flaws kind of things? 

[Point Five]

7. Police Against Crime #2

This grade felt right on to me. Smoking book, looks almost like new except for the dinged-up overhang along the top.

I debated giving the first one a 4, but in the end settled on a 3.0. Nooooo!

I agree with you - definitely a 4.5! Make sure when you resub you put a post-it on the Mylar to let the graders know @Black_Adam said they were a grade too low.

I wanted to grade the Shadows book at 4 but bumped it up to 4.5. The Police book I graded way too harshly and graded at 5.5.

I did the same with the Shadows book, but somehow wound up with a 6.5 for the Police book.
