The following is now the OLD SCORE:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
With a new year comes a new score. Now what people like in wings is very subjective. For instance, what makes someone else cry will not cause me to cry (Stephen Colbert interviewed a woman who thought Ketchup was too spicy!)

Keeping that in mind, here is how we will be grading each places wings:


The NEW SCORE

STYLE: -so what kind of wings are they?: Buffalo style, gourmet, frozen, pizza, chinese,
experimental, battered etc
SAUCES: -what sauces - hot, medium, bbq etc
SIZE: -Jumbo(2 points) Large(1) Medium (.5) Smal (0) Pidgeon (-1)
OUT OF 2 Points
HEAT: - 1-4= nothing at all,
5=-starting to sense something
6= tongue tingle
7=-numbing lips
8= cough before consuming
9= sweat
10= long lasting pain
11 or above= stomach burning & days of pain OUT OF 10 points
CRISPINESS: soggy (1) medium (2) crunchy (3) OUT OF 3 points
WETNAP FACTOR: (hot saucy is it?)
1= dry to the bone
2= some sauce
3= half dry half sauce
4=saucy
5=drowning OUT OF 5 points

PRICE: How much will it cost???
SIDES: Were there side dishes? veggies (2), fries (5) OUT OF 7 points
WETNAP/NAPKINS: napkins (3) wetnaps (5) OUT OF 7 points
WING NIGHT:
OTHER:
SPECIAL:
TOTAL: 2+10+3+5+7+8= /35
FINAL SCORE: the total out of 35 and a Yea or Nea vote.

Of course, bonus points may be added. Normally, it will look like this:
