Each score is compared with this band's other-judge average for the same season, flight, category, measure, and maximum at other competitions. Differences are normalized to percentage points of the measure's maximum. Generous means above +1; Strict means below −1; Fair means within ±1. Missing comparable history receives no label.
Only scored performances before this competition's date and no later than today are used, across all prior seasons. This competition and later results cannot influence its analysis. Overall-only live totals, exhibitions, penalties, and unattributed scores are excluded. A judge covering multiple categories appears once per assignment.
