How to read this comparison
For each attributed score, the matched reference is the average from other judges at other competitions for that same band, season, flight, category, score type, and maximum. The selected judge's scores and the same competition are excluded from its reference. A missing reference stays blank.
Each matched score contributes once to the average difference. Category-table differences use raw score points. Overall cards and the chart use percentage points of each measure's maximum so different scales are not added together. All-years comparisons still match within individual seasons. Raw category averages summarize the selected history and may cover different seasons or flights; use matched differences for the more comparable view.
Band improvement, show timing, contest conditions, and limited samples can explain differences. This analysis does not establish bias, fairness, or expected future scores.
