Why are signature series and universal grades both in the same slots for rankings and awards? 1 1

[Evil Jin]

Signature Series and Universal Series should be counted separately for annual Awards.

 

Seems unfair that uou can have a complete Universal 9.8 set (with a 9.9 #1 even), but be beaten for the #1 rank by someone who has 9.8s (including a 9.8 #1),  just because of Signature(s).

 

It's upsetting to have them in the same category and have the signature points upset set rankings:

especially when 9.9 and higher grades are soo much harder to find and vastly more valuable...  and any Signature counts towards points over non Signature comics. 

 

SS comics should be, scored. ranked and awarded separately, to be fair.

There is a registry sub-forum that this would fit better in but be careful offering any criticism of it with the current administrators; most complaints are now told to just create "custom" sets. Before I was banned for disagreeing with the new changes I was given these statements by Mike:

"Be advised that several admins have put a lot of thought and time into this."

"The Registry is a free resource, operating at the discretion of the company, and it is at the company's discretion to make any changes as it sees fit. It is also at the company's discretion as to how and when any changes are announced and implemented."

In short creating separate sets for SS and Universal would be to much work. This also applies to newsstands which have a higher point value when entered, so your Universal direct edition comics are #3 on the tier list.
