    100 points (too many in my opinion) for each LCS cataloged in the lcs section


    I thought you were going to drop this down eventually? Are people still adding them?

  • Handful every now and then.

    But I will make it 10 to be more inline with the rest.

    This is all fine and dandy but for those who joined a little later it is nearly impossible to earn points by adding covers. I will probably never earn enough point to be able to download my collection via CSV once entered. hhhhmmmm.....gotta wonder if I should continue or not.. I mean 7,500 points?? WOW. I will never make that. I guess its on to plan B

  • You could donate $10. 10,000 points. I know it's a bit much for some people, but it's like, 3 books nowadays. Well worth it.

  • I never could find the original post that stated that. Welcome to the club!

    7500 points come quicker than you think. I use this handy report all the time:
    http://comicbookrealm.com/report/missing
    This will show you which comics are missing information such as covers, dates, prices, etc. You can fill in what you can and just watch the points accumulate!

    And don't be discouraged that there are not enough covers out there to upload. There are still tons of books out there that need covers. Just use that report i linked and it will show you. Most often it will be TPBs and Hard Covers
