Default PSA Conducting a SPEEDY Authentication Contest at Natl

Posted By: Richard Simon

PSA ANNOUNCEMENT -

World Series of Autograph Authentication contest at the 26th annual National Sports Collectors Convention:

Each contestant will have 10 minutes to examine 30 autographs on a computer screen and determine their authenticity by casting a "genuine" or "not genuine" vote. Following the initial group of 30 questions, there will be a lightning round consisting of 10 questions. Each contestant will have 2 minutes to complete the 10 questions after the first round of 30 questions is completed. The results of the lightning round will be used as a tie-breaker in case we have tie scores after round one.

I guess they feel that due to the way their own staff works that examining 30 autographs in 10 minutes should be done by everyone, and in the tie breaker, 10 autographs in 2 minutes. Guess that is how rubber stamps. autopens, etc get past them.
No wonder I have so many stories about them on my website.

I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

We made a promise. We swore we'd always remember.
No retreat baby, no surrender.
