CounterScore
A community-powered counter-score for figure skating judging
A mobile app for figure skating fans to independently evaluate performances using official ISU rules, combine their assessments into one shared CounterScore, and compare it with the judges’ result.
I'm building CounterScore because I've always found it interesting that figure skating fans can have very different opinions about the same performance — but there is usually no way to turn those individual opinions into a structured collective assessment.
The idea goes back to a 2019 Golden Skate discussion. Years later, after previously developing Figure Skater Content (a Windows app for ISU data), I’m turning this concept into a mobile app for iOS and Android.
The core formula:
Official Score → CounterScore → CounterGap
The challenge isn’t just calculating scores, but creating one shared CounterScore per performance, incorporating ISU rules, and applying dedicated algorithms to reduce bad-faith manipulation without taking away fan passion.
CounterScore is currently under active development. I'd much rather discover weaknesses now than after launch, so I’m especially looking for feedback:
• What could go wrong with this concept?
• How could people try to manipulate it?
• What would make you trust — or distrust — a community CounterScore?
