¶ Purpose
See your scores and feedback when the contest releases them - after the math is frozen/locked and the contest is no longer in live "active" mode.
¶ Before You Begin
Results appear only when:
-
All sections are locked (every section on the contest, including ones without subsections — same rule as Emcee Reveal / contestant PDF),
-
The producer has set the contest as inactive, and
-
A producer has clicked Release Results on the Results page. You should also get an email when that happens, with a way to log in to view your scores and a personal link to download your results and feedback PDF (no extra sign-in; the link lasts 14 days unless results are withdrawn).
If any condition is missing, My Results may look empty. That's release control, not a missing score.
Also: be logged in as a contestant on the correct contest.
¶ Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Log in and open My Contests.
-
Find your Contestant card. If results aren't released yet and the contest is already inactive, that card sits under Inactive Contests with no buttons - wait for the producer.
-
When results are released, the card is in the main list. Open My Results.
-
Review your place/ranking, totals, section breakdowns, and feedback as shown. If automatic tiebreak changed a score, the official (post-tiebreak) number is emphasized and the original contest-default number is labeled underneath. Producer tiebreak points, if used, are labeled as ranking-only and do not change Total. On a multi-week contest you also see overall place and each week's sheet.
-
Download your PDF if offered (Download PDF after login, or the personal link from the results-released email). The file is named like
Contest_Name-Individual_Results-Your_Name.pdf(Downloading files). Those ranking and download options appear only after results are released. -
If it's empty after the contest is clearly wrapped, ask your producer when results will be released.
Contestant - Results Not Ready (Yet)
¶ Release rules
Make sure to ask your producer when they plan on releasing scores and feedback to the contestants.
Scoring Details and Contest Details remain available anytime - even while you wait.
¶ Tips
-
Celebrate on stage first; check My Results later.
-
Save/download your PDF for personal archives.
-
Feedback is meant to help - read it when you're ready, potentially with a friend or partner.
¶ Common Mistakes
-
Assuming empty results mean scores were deleted
-
Trying to access the results before the producer has released them.
¶ Frequently Asked Questions
Why is it empty?
Scoring may still be open, sections unlocked, the contest still marked active, or the producer has not clicked Release Results yet.
Can I see everyone else's placements?
You see your results package - not the full panel of contestants.
Who locks sections?
The tallymaster (see Locking sections). Who marks the contest inactive? Usually the producer in contest settings.
