When you're ready to begin scoring:

  1. Click Score! or Score Remaining Artists.

    • Click Yes/No/Maybe to enter a score.

  5. Enter comments in the comment box.

  6. Click Save this Score to proceed to the next application.

If your scorecard doesn't look like the image above, you may be scoring through a projected jury scorecard instead. Contact the event for clarification.
