March Madness Grading Tournament - Round of 16

acclaim.gif Welcome March Madness Grading Tournament - Round of 16acclaim.gif

Rules for this and future rounds:

1. Do not talk about the books in this thread or any other thread. Do not talk to your wife about these books. Do not talk to your friends about these books. Do not talk to your dog about these books.

2. Four books will be posted. PM me all grades in the order they are listed. Use the template I provided to send the grades

3. Submit your grades in standard CGC recognized increments.

4. Due date for grades for this round is Wednesday, March 22nd at 10:00p (EST) or when the last team submits its grades. All grade submissions are final.

5. No conditional grades will be accepted. Please ask questions to seek clarification before submitting grades.


6. The following is a list of things I will always disclose when posting the scans.
A. Any defects not clearly visible. (ie. NCB creases)
B. Moisture Stains not apparent on the scan.
C. Damage to a book which was not present at the time of grading.
D. Any damage/ scratches on the CGC case which may appear as flaws on the book.

7. Your score will be tallied based on the sum of the points awarded for the grades assigned each book based on the chart below:

Spot on= 20 points
.2 or closer = 18 points
.5 or closer= 15 points
.7 or closer= 10 points
1 or closer = 7 points.
1.2 or closer= 5 points.
1.5 or closer= 2 points
2 or closer = 0 points
Over 2 grades off= Technical Foul -5 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.

Oh Snap! Do we have another bracket buster in the making?!?!

 

Hard to say --

LR - was one that had to be thrown into the three way dance as his initial submission was interfered with....

 

The remaining seeds ( hopefully correct) ----

 #1: 5 ( and wow - only a single #1 left in the upper bracket)

#2: 2

#3: 2

#4: 1

#6: 3

#9: 1

#10: 1

and LR as the lone add-on  left ( though he probably would have had a #1 given his track record) ......

Maybe next year - just to drive sckao even more nuts ---- have a separate contest with people actually choosing brackets ( picking who will win each round, lol)..........

I hit the NCAA tourney lotto - I have ties to both Purdue and Wisconsin 

 

I think Purdue is the better team - but Kansas will be tough!

Unfortunately I didn't pick Wisconsin in my bracket, but I do have UCLA over Arizona in the championship so I'm still in contention to win my pool.
