Judge Pairs will individually evaluate, discuss, notate and score each Entry. Entries in a Flight will be ranked by their average Judge Pair score. Each flight will have at least one BJCP judge.
Best of Show evaluation will be conducted by five senior BJCP Judges immediately following the conclusion of the second session.
Judge and Steward experience points will be reported to the BJCP.
