[MR] A little more on competitions

[Marybeth Lavrakas]

People may remember that last year I designed special
judging forms for the Pentathlon in Persona
competition. They're heavily based on the judging
criteria used in the Midrealm, with alterations made
based on past Atlantian forms, suggestions from
various A&S constituencies, and my own preferences.

Now, they're hardly perfect forms, and they are in a
way kinda tough. But they also try to provide enough
detail so both a judge and a competitor know what a
particular score is based on. I received some feedback
after the competition  regarding the phrase "museum
quality piece" & having the bar be so high to receive
a 'perfect' score (useful comment, but I haven't
changed the form...yet...)

Anyway, I hope that people attending KASF will take a
look at the forms (they remain posted on my web site)
even if they aren't participating in the competition.
It would be uesful to hear more reactions to how to
improve them/ ie, make them easier for both judges and
contestants to use, and also make them the most useful
bit of paper they can be.
