This app is about accuracy.

You’re not trying to guess what the judges will give — you’re judging what the routine deserves based on execution, deductions, and quality.

The goal is to reward judges who are consistent, disciplined, and closest to a fair, technically sound score.

Being “nice” or matching the crowd doesn’t help. Being right does.

Each routine opens a 45-second judging window.

When the timer starts, you can move the slider and submit your score. You may submit at any point before time expires.

The final 10 seconds are highlighted so you know time is almost up.

When the timer ends, scoring closes and submissions are locked.

If you don’t submit a score before the timer hits zero, that routine won’t count toward your stats.

To protect independent judging.

You won’t see the fan average or your friends’ scores until after you submit your own score.

This prevents crowd influence and keeps everyone focused on judging the routine itself, not reacting to other numbers.

The fan average is a trimmed average, designed to reflect serious judging rather than outliers.

1. All fan scores submitted during the window are collected.
2. The top 10% and bottom 10% of scores are removed.
3. The remaining scores are averaged.

That final number becomes the fan average.

If there aren’t enough submissions, trimming may not apply yet (see below).

The 10% trimming only happens once there are enough scores to make it meaningful.

With very few scores, everyone’s number is included. As more fans submit, trimming automatically activates.

The more people who judge a routine, the more stable and reliable the fan average becomes.

You’ll always see:

• how many fans submitted
• how many scores were actually used

so you can judge the strength of the crowd result.

If your score falls into the highest or lowest 10% of all fan scores for a routine, it’s excluded from the fan average.

This does not mean your score was “wrong” — only that it was far from the crowd’s center.

Your personal stats still track:

• how far your score was from the official result
• whether you tend to score higher or lower than average

You can tap “Scores dropped” in your stats to see exactly which routines this applied to.

The leaderboard doesn’t compare you only to the official score, and it doesn’t reward copying the crowd.

Instead, it uses a blended target that balances both:

• The official score represents the final authority.
• The trimmed fan average represents collective judging wisdom.
• The blended target sits between the two.

This reduces noise caused by unusually strict or loose judging panels, one-off official errors, and early crowd swings before enough scores are submitted.

You’re rewarded for being close to the official outcome without blindly chasing it — and without drifting with the crowd.

For each routine with an official score:

1. The blended target is set.
2. Your error is measured as the distance between your score and that target.
3. Your errors are averaged across all eligible routines.

Lower average error = higher accuracy = higher leaderboard rank.

You must have at least five routines with official scores to appear on the leaderboard.

Your stats focus on how you judge, not just your rank.

• average error vs official scores
• whether you tend to score high or low (bias)
• how often your scores were trimmed from the crowd
• how your accuracy changes over time

This gives you a judging “fingerprint” — not just a number.

Out-of-bounds deductions are applied by the admin, not by fans.

You judge the routine as performed. The admin applies any confirmed neutral deductions afterward so the official score reflects the full context.

Adding friends lets you:

• see each other’s scores live (after submission)
• compare judging tendencies in real time

Friends can be added by username search or friend code.

Friend requests must be accepted unless added via code.

Most common reasons:

• you haven’t signed in
• you haven’t judged enough routines
• official scores haven’t been entered yet

Once you meet the minimum requirements, you’ll appear automatically.
