Well, I for one would like to see a comment card required for anything 5 or below. I would also like to see a way to balance scoring where you might get a 5 from one judge and 9's from others. Why is there a 4 point gap. I got a couple 6's in Marshalltown while other judges in the same category gave us a 9. One of those was on presentation.

On a 6 I can only assume the bite they had was either too dry or maybe too big a build up of rub concentrated in that area. Maybe they got some fat in the bite.

I think you might have hit something there Nate with disklike. I am sure some judges out there judge what they like vs the merit of the entry. If they like dry rub and get too much sauce then they will mark it down for example.
