You're traffic control for scoring night. Tallymasters monitor judging progress, lock finished sections, enter tallymaster-only scores and time penalties, review results, and help with exports and Emcee Reveal - without needing the full producer Manage toolbox.

| Manage Audience Scoring links | Create/share per-contestant audience scoring links, open/close/re-open, audit submissions - see Audience Scoring |

| Enter time | For sections that use time penalties |
| Results & adjustments | View results; adjustments if the contest allows them |

| Details & prep | Scoring Details, Contest Details, Chaos Ops prep |
Judging Sections, Results, Scoring Details, Contest Details, and Go Do the Things (when Chaos Ops is enabled).
Am I a producer?
Not automatically. You get tallymaster tools. Co-producer is a separate hat.
When do contestants see results?
After all scored sections are locked and the contest is marked inactive by producers.
Can I unlock after locking?
Yes if the contest is still active and a real correction is needed (always check with your producer first!) - then re-lock.
