Why are the community and friends' scores hidden until I score?

To keep it spoiler-free, round by round. A round's community scores and your friends' scores stay hidden until you've scored that round yourself, so your read stays your own. Everything opens once the fight's scoring window closes.

When does scoring open and close?

The scoring window opens on the day of the event and stays open for seven days. Before it opens you'll see a countdown and the card is locked; once it closes, your card is final.

Why don't some rounds count?

When a fight is stopped by knockout, TKO or submission, the round it was stopped in and any after it don't count. They're left out of your totals, the community's card and every figure: only completed rounds count.

How is the community's card worked out?

For each round, we take the score the most people gave it: the exact score, so a 10-9 and a 10-8 are counted apart. Add those rounds up and you have the community's card. If two scores tie for a round, a fixed rule picks one.

Why can the community's pick name one fighter when the bar is split 50-50?

They count different things. The pick comes from the community's card: the most common score in each round, added up. The bar counts people: how many had each fighter winning on their own card. In a close fight the rounds can lean one way while the people split down the middle.

What do my agreement percentages mean?

How often your rounds matched exactly: the community's card, the judges, or a friend's card. A 10-9 doesn't match a 10-8, even with the same winner. They measure how you line up, not whether you were right: scoring is subjective.

AGREED and DISAGREED are looser. They only ask whether a card picked the judges' winner.

Can I change a score after I submit it?

Yes. Tap the round again and change it, any time until the scoring window closes. After that the card is final.

How do I add friends?

Open the FRIENDS tab on your profile to search by username, answer requests, or share your invite link. Anyone who signs up through it becomes your friend straight away. Then use the Friends panel on any fight to compare cards.

Where do the official judges' scores come from?

Once the result is official, the judges' scorecards go into the fight's recap, next to your card and the community's: each judge's total first, and their rounds once the official scorecards are published.

A fight that ends by KO or submission has no scorecards to show; its recap shows how it ended.

Is there a leaderboard or a global ranking?

No, and it isn't planned. Scoring stays open for seven days after an event, so anyone who scores later already knows the result and has seen the judges' scorecards. Ranking those cards against ones scored live, before anyone knew the outcome, would reward scoring late rather than scoring well.

Your figures still live on your profile: how often your rounds match the community and the judges. They're a record of how you read fights, not a table to climb.

Why can't I score this fight yet?

Its scoring window hasn't opened. Scoring opens on event day; until then the card shows a countdown and stays locked.
