how do the jugdes score?

[lucabratzi]

my question is how do the judges score the bb'ers, do they have a point system for each muscle? i know they also judge on proportion and all that other shit, but how do they tell who wins.

The judges will rank the weight class by numbers, in order how they feel the individual will finish: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. The person with the loweest total is winner.

i really have no clue what ur saying. say theres 3 people in a weight class, do they give points for each bodypart that is better on each person, then overall points for proportion, and aestetics and stuff.

They rank each of the 3 competitors based on all of the beforementioned attributes, then the competitor with the lowest score is crowned champion.

Overall proportion...You go through a series of "mandatory" poses and your ranked first to last. Your compared to your opponents in these poses as well as some "free posing" until they can decide what place you'd finish in. After that, the judges all tally up the votes, so if nine judges all voted for me to get first place, that would be a total of 9 points. check out this scorecard.
