How Judging Works
Every argument is scored out of 100 by AI across four criteria worth 25 points each, to three decimal places.
Argument Logic
25ptsDoes your case hold together? Clear claims, sound reasoning, no contradictions.
Specific Evidence
25ptsStats, matches, moments, dates. Concrete beats vague every single time.
Originality
25ptsAn angle nobody else is taking. Recycled takes score low.
Writing Clarity
25ptsTight, readable prose. Structure, rhythm and grammar all count.
