Changing Arts and Sciences Judging for Crown Qualifications
(TO BE VOTED IN FEBRUARY 2018 ALTHING)
I propose that we change the judging to determine if someone is eligible for holding office to a simple Pass/Fail rubric instead of a numerical score. This will allow more cut and dried answers as to whether or not something is acceptable, rather than if it is a 5.0.
If someone is making pants that are indeed pants, but maybe nothing original about them, not outstanding, and they do in fact function as pants, then yes, they are pants and should Pass.
They should still alongside the Pass/Fail be scored numerically for judging Cultural Champion, however this does not need to be a requirement for office. To that end I propose changing to the following wordings (5.2.7- remains unchanged)-
5.2.5- Cultural events shall be scored on a scale from 1.0 (low) to 10.0 (high). A score of 5.0 is average and expresses that the entry meets the average of the subcategory and is not of poor quality. Scores below this express that the entry has poor quality. Higher scores are for outstanding appearance, quality, or performance
5.2.6- Cultural events by declared candidates will be judged to Pass, if they meet the minimum acceptable of the category (functional, edible, etc), or to Fail if they do not (falling apart, inedible, etc).
5.2.8- In order to qualify for Crown, the Crown Contestant must Pass in a minimum seven (Kingdom), six(Duchy), five (Barony),or four (Shire) subcategories as appropriate.
