Contest Results

Scoring Rules

  • Each criterion is scored from 0 to 10 by every judge.
  • The score for a criterion is the average of all judges’ scores for it.
  • The final total is a weighted average of all criteria.
  • If a criterion is optional (for example, visual aids) and the contestant didn’t use it, it is simply not counted in the total.
  • For legacy contests where the data is not in the system, only the winners are indicated.
  • Gaps in the awards or list of participants may mean that the participants didn't have an account at the time of contest.
