Richard Massonhaving an impact on the graders. I'll leave it to someone from SGC to explain quality control procedures, but I don't think the grader is aware of instructions on the order form. The cards are graded (including a peer review on anything controversial)and scored before they go back to data entry which enters grades and produces the labels. Data entry would match the instructions (A or no A) to the labels before passing them both along to slabbing. The slabbed cards are reviewed again before the order is complete. Long story short, what you write on the order form has no impact on how the card is graded.
