towards Lake Orion.

2 matched band scores across 2 competitions. +3.789 percentage points relative to this judge's scoring pattern for other bands.

Small sample: fewer than five matched caption scores or two competitions. Several scores may come from the same competition.

These summaries follow the selected season and category filters. “Fair” means within ±1 percentage point of the comparison average. The band-specific summary compares scoring deviations for other bands in the same season, flight, category, and measure; it accounts for their usual scores. These are descriptive labels, not proof of fairness or predictions.

This band: Higher than comparison average. Judge's wider history: Higher than comparison average. Negative differences indicate lower scoring relative to the comparison; positive differences indicate higher scoring. These are historical patterns, not a rating of fairness or a prediction.

Limited direct comparison history (2 matched scores). Multiple caption scores can come from one competition, so these are not independent performances.

Category averages

Only attributed caption Tot scores are used, including Percussion and Auxiliary. Rows keep different measures and maximum scores separate. Scores without a judge, live overall totals, penalties, exhibitions, and future competitions are excluded.

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.
