1. Each judge will score individually.
2. Submissions will be anonymized for the judge.
3. Judges will evaluate the entries based on three categories: consistency, playability and innovation:
   Consistency Score (10 points)：To what extent are the rhythm choices, placements and hitsounds being consistent within the entry?
   Playability Score (10 points)：To what extent is the entry appropriate to play and resonant to the music?
   Innovation Score (10 points)：To what extent is the entry unique or creative?
   Violation of Ranking Criteria may be subject to score penalty contingent upon the judges.
   
   The sum of the three scores is the raw score of the entry.
4. The standard score of the entry is the raw score adjusting with standard deviation.
   S* = (S - S(avarage))/SD
   S* is the standard score, S is the raw score, S(avarage) is the average score of the raw score of the judge. SD is the standard deviation of the judge's evaluation.
5. The final score is the sum of judges' standard scores, times a constant. The constant serves as a factor controlling the range of the final score.
6. After the judging ends, the Committee will make the evaluation table and all submitted entries public.
7. For each track, the score will be arranged from the highest to the lowest.
