Point Five's 4th Annual Grading Contest: ROUND 2 BOOKS!
4 4

62 posts in this topic

Round 2

-- The books have not been pressed, cleaned or altered in any way since these raw scans were taken.

-- There are 3 books in this round; all are now in CGC Universal slabs. Send me a PM with your grades (make the title "Grading Contest: [your username]") and I'll record them. Send just one PM with all of your grades and add to it for future rounds; no changing of grades. You can copy/paste the below:

ROUND 2

4. Confessions of the Lovelorn #53

5. Cinderella Love #28

6. Hawkman #4

-- I will post the full grading notes with each book. (This can be misleading... sometimes the notes use harsher language than I might use to describe a flaw, and on the other hand there can be many flaws that the graders don't mention at all. So I tend to advise weighing what you see :shiftyeyes: more heavily than the notes, except when they describe flaws not visible.)

-- Scoring is as follows:
Bullseye = 5 points
1 grade off = 3 points
2 grades off = 1 point
3 or more grades off = -1 point
(so remember: with this contest, the higher score the better.)

-- Do not use the census for this contest.

-- Grades are due Tuesday, June 20th 10 pm EST.

Good luck!
