[QUOTE="IdesOfMarch01, post: 2700878, member: 39084"]It's rumored that the first chariot race commenced 30 seconds after the second chariot was finished being built. Yes, we're all Y-chromosome cliches at heart, those of us with that genetic characteristic (or aberration?). In addition to being an opportunity to learn more about collectors' preferences, this tournament strikes me as a bit of a (baseball) pitching contest: if I'm facing a four-game series, do I put my best pitcher up first? Should I bring in another pitcher for the next game? Does the other team have a surprise lefty that I hadn't known about? I've always been more interested in the [I]why[/I] of "likes" rather than the actual number of "likes." This tournament -- yes, competition -- is a way of possibly learning more about why one collector likes certain coins better than others.[/QUOTE]
