Whew, tricky triple 5's! Had my grade ranges as 5.0-5.5, 4.5-5.0, and 5.0-5.5 on the three books. As part of my final decision I thought there was a higher chance that each grade would be different, so I made sure to mix it up lol. 

Found my notes which I thought I had discarded.  Initially  6, 5, 5.  Then 6,5,4.5 -  Then I speculated that it might be 6,5,4 just because.   6,5,5 still would have lost as the TheGeneral had the first tie-breaker.

No I think 6,5,5 would have won it since the first criteria was most bulls eyes. 

This round totally played on my bias for bright colors over muted. My gut had me going 4.5, 4.5, 5.5 but I just couldn't do it. Lol. Wouldn't have won anyway but might have been more respectable. :facepalm:lol
