:news:WELCOME TO THE MARCH MADNESS ROUND OF 32 :news:

 

Congratulations to everyone who has advanced to this round. :applause:

The rules for this round will be the same as last round and are as follows:

 

1. Four books will be posted. PM me all grades in the order they are listed. Associate the book with the grade and include your username in the PM.

 

2. Submit your grades in standard CGC recognized increments, ie. No 9.5’s.

 

3. Due date for grades is Friday at 10:00 PM PST or when the last team submits its grades. All grade submissions are final.

 

4. No conditional grades will be accepted. Please ask questions to seek clarification (or more confusion) :tonofbricks: before submitting grades.

 

5. Your score will be tallied and compared to your opponent's score as follows:

 

Spot on= 20 points

Within .2= 15 points

Within .5 or closer= 10 points

Within .7 or closer =7 points

Within 1 or closer= 5 points.

Within 1.2 = 2 points.

 

Bonus (cumulative):

2 books spot on= 5 points

3 books spot on=10 points

 

The Team with the highest score wins the game and advances. There will be an overtime book posted in the event of a tie.

 

Good Luck to everyone. :wishluck:

I fully expect it to get tougher every round as it should be (thumbs u

 

My preliminary grades are on paper...now do i dare hm second guessing myself. The last 2 rounds, I only changed one grade and it was the wrong thing to do so sticking to my first hunch has been a better move.
