Scoring

Main Rounds

For more information on how main rounds work, see Main Rounds. For information on submission format, see Round Work Guidelines and Round Media Limitations.

Bonus Rounds

For prompts: 5 points each (maximum of 50 points per team)

For fills:

  • First 3 fills by your team in each bonus round: 30 points each
  • Fills 4-8: 25 points each
  • Fills 9-13: 20 points each
  • Fills 14-18: 15 points each
  • Fills 19-23: 10 points each
  • Fills 24-35: 5 points each (max of 500 points per team in total)
  • Fills 36+ are not for points, but purely for fun!

Main Round Scoring vs. Bonus Round Scoring

Main Rounds last roughly one month, and Bonus Rounds are posted every two weeks (or, there are roughly two bonus rounds per month). Based on this, two maxed out bonus rounds (or, a solid month of team effort) is worth very slightly more than placing first in a main round (or, a solid month of team effort). Therefore, it's worth paying attention to both bonus and main rounds.
