Same here. And apologies for being a whiner earlier. Should I change my handle from WPPJames to DebbieDowner?

No worries.  

Every round we will have someone (if not most of the crowd) disappointed.

I must have missed it... I went through the PMs threads and of course, there are about 5-6 pages of them... Sometimes, people responded but then didn't put any grades down initially which may have thrown me off. (I didn't list people in the spreadsheet until they actually submitted grades until the very end.)

If he submits for ROUND 2, he'll be included.

I was aiming in the 7s on the second book, until I started noticing that the wear and smudging I saw were identical on both covers. Seemed like there was a good amount of scanner schmutz.

 

I can say it openly now(sorry for the slip gang) I swear I saw fingerprints on the BC,right where you'd hold it to read.Read?I should've known better

The Startling Comics was a gimme, really. If you read the notes that I posted with the book, you saw it said "INCOMPLETE".  Any book that is incomplete, will get a Universal (Blue) label 0.5

In this contest, you will never see a Qualified (green) label book, you will never see a Restored (purple) label book, and you will never see an NG (no grade) graded book.

They will all be blue label (Universal) graded books.

Always pay attention to any notes I post, and also the paper quality. If a book has Brittle or Slightly Brittle pages, that will definitely be factored into the grade.

Scanner glass, case & mylar = 8.5

9.6 GTFO!!!! If that's a 9.6 my ASM #36 is a perfect 10!

Aargh wasn’t sure if we gave qualified grades are not.  Hence my hesitation.

Went with a 4.0 on the Startling  But... nailed The Untamed! 

I thought of it after I sub my grade that maybe it was a blue label incomplete and if that was the case it would of been 0.5 but I for some reason thought green label 2.0 but can you even get a green label on that book with missing pages that affect story?

Reminded me of a “test” when I was a kid.  So I honed into the notes immediately!

I was supposed to be his alarm clock.  I failed miserably.

No if that was the case I would sabotage @Hudson.  I invited him to the grading contests and now he smokes me every time right out of the gate.

I also fell into the scanner glass problem. I had just gotten a book back from CGC that was an 8.0 and it looked close to me... it is about the learning so I am having a good time so far. I’ll catch up to you all when the difficult grades start to appear.😀
