SportsFest Scoring
SCORING:
WARNING: A LOT OF MATH AHEAD
Introduction
Teams will be scored in the following categories:
Main Rounds
Comment Rounds
Bonus Round: Prompts
Bonus Round: Fills
Bonus Round: Graphics
Remix Round
Rec Round
Team Worksheet
Teams don’t compete directly against each other. Instead, they accumulate participation points throughout the event to achieve a Gold, Silver, or Bronze medal in SportsFest. The minimum number of points to achieve each medal category can be found below, where “n” is the number of members of your team.
Gold | Silver | Bronze | |
Equation for Minimum | 900(n) + 1050 | 720(n) + 1050 | 460(n) + 550 |
Point Breakdown
The specific point distribution of each category is found below:
Main Rounds | 500 points each |
Comment Rounds | 5 points per comment |
Bonus Round - Prompt | 5 points per prompt, limited to 5 times the number of team members (5n) |
Bonus Round - Fill | 20 points per fill for first (5n) fills 10 points per fill for next (5n) fills 5 points per fill for next (5n) fills 2 points per fill for any additional fills |

Team Worksheet | 50 Points |
Recommended Workload:
Below is how the mods recommend accomplishing each medal threshold. However, this is not required, and teams may accumulate points through whatever distribution they want to. (For example, if an 8-person team didn’t want to submit an MR, and would rather write 250 extra Bonus Round Fills, they could.)
Gold | Silver | Bronze | |
Main Rounds | Submit 2 MR Entries | Submit 2 MR Entries | Submit 1 MR Entry |
Comment Rounds | 5 comments per team member per MR | 3 comments per team member per MR | 1 comment per team member per MR |
Bonus Round - Graphics | 15 fills per team BONUS POINTS | 10 fills per team BONUS POINTS | 5 fills per team BONUS POINTS |
Bonus Round - Prompt | 5 prompts per team member per BR | 5 prompts per team member per BR | 5 prompts per team member per BR |
Bonus Round - Fill (Updated 7/21) | 12 fills per team member per BR | 8 fills per team member per BR | 4 fills per team member per BR |
Remix Round - Fill (Updated 7/21) | 6 fills per team member | 4 fills per team member | 2 fills per team member |
Rec Round - Fill (Updated 7/21) | 5 fills per team member per round | 3 fills per team member per round | 1 fill per team member per round |
Team Worksheet | Submitted | Submitted | Submitted |
Point Breakdown by Team Size:
Because we’ve calculated the number of points awarded based on team size, each medal category has five different point thresholds, depending on the number of people on your team.
The full table is found below:
GOLD | SILVER | BRONZE | |
4 MEMBERS | 4650 points | 3930 points | 2390 points |
5 MEMBERS | 5500 points | 4650 points | 2850 points |
6 MEMBERS | 6450 points | 5370 points | 3310 points |
7 MEMBERS | 7350 points | 6090 points | 3770 points |
8 MEMBERS | 8250 points | 6810 points | 4230 points |
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Additional information about each scoring category is found below.
Main Rounds
Main Rounds are worth 500 points each. An entry will receive all 500 points if:
It is submitted on time.
It meets the minimum Main Round Requirements
It is properly tagged.
Main Rounds are not awarded points based on quality or popularity, just completion.
Comment Rounds
During this round, teams are awarded points for reading and commenting on other MR entries! Each team member may only comment once on each entry, any subsequent comments on the same entry will NOT be awarded points. However, multiple team members may comment on the same entry and be awarded points.
Each comment is worth 5 points, with the maximum number of comments per team member determined by the number of minor-friendly entries minus one.
Bonus Round Prompts
Team’s will be awarded 10 points per prompt per bonus round, up to the number of team members they have times 5. (e.g a 4-person team will be awarded points for up to 20 prompts, while an 8-person team will be awarded points for up to 40 prompts).
Additional prompts are welcome and encouraged, but will not be worth any points!
Bonus Round Fills -
With the exception of the Bonus Round 0: Graphics, all BR fills are awarded points on the same point scale:
Point Breakdown: 20 points per fill for first 5n fills 10 points per fill for next 5n fills 5 points per fill for next 5n fills 2 points per fill for additional fills | Example: 4-person Team 20 points for fills 1-20 10 points for fills 21-40 5 points for fills 41-60 2 points for fills 61+ | Example: 8-person Team 20 points for fills 1-40 10 points for fills 41-80 5 points points for fills 81-120 2 points for fills 121+ |
Bonus Round: Graphics
Since the graphics round is abbreviated, it has a slightly different point breakdown. 10 points are awarded per fill, for the first 15 fills, and any additional fills are worth 5 points. There is no cap on the number of fills a team can submit.
The recommended workload to reach each medal threshold will no longer require participation in Bonus Round 0. Instead, any fills in Bonus Round 0 will be bonus points, worth 5 points each. You can get a maximum of 75 bonus points.
Remix Round
The remix round is open for the duration of the event, and teams can submit fills at any time as long as:
It meets the work minimums outlined in the Bonus Round Guidelines
The original creator has given remix permission
Point Breakdown: 20 points per fill for first 8n fills 10 points for any additional fills | Example: 4-person Team 20 points for fills 0-32 10 points for fills 33+ | Example: 8-person Team 20 points for fills 0-64 10 points for fills 65+ |
Rec Round
Each fill in the Rec Round is worth 5 points, and the number of fills awarded points is capped for each team, based on the number of members times 10. For example, a 4-person team is capped at 40 fills per rec round, while an 8-person team is capped at 80 fills per rec round.
Additional fills are encouraged (spread the love!), but will not be worth any points.
Team Worksheet
The team worksheet is a one-time worksheet that the mods have created to help with team bonding, administrative work, and to make sure that your entire team is on the same page. It will be distributed during the team switching period, and will be due before Bonus Round 0 starts. (Yes, we’re giving you homework).
The worksheet is intended to make sure that you have an awesome team to spend the summer with!
If you didn’t memorize it all, don’t worry. Each post will have a section in the header about how that specific category is being scored.
ONE LAST NOTE
Remember! It doesn’t matter what medal you get. The goal this summer is to appreciate some sports animanga, meet cool people, create awesome things, and to have a little fun! Happy Sportsfest!
