One of the services of the Merope application is the ability to add competitions and enter scores into the system. Previously, adding scores was done manually, which led to unfair practices. The solution is Merope.

Merope offers the opportunity for everyone to participate in the competition and win monetary prizes.

How does it work

The organizer has the ability to customize their profile as well as the competition's business cards (e.g., defines the prizes). They divide their competitions based on a category tree (e.g., classical music). For each competition, they assign specific rounds in the "Stages" tab, which are visible only after entering the selected competition. Then, from the "Stages" tab, they can access the "Scores" functionality where they can update ratings for the candidates, which are assigned by the jurors (the juror inputs them themselves from the panel). Finally, they can see the remaining features such as calculations and results (a list of candidates who advanced to the next round of the competition).

With the tutorials, I explained how the Contest Organizer should use the function of dividing the contest into rounds, as well as filling in the scores and results.

The tutorial explains the function of assigning rounds to a contest, so that the user is aware that this functionality appears only after entering the contest profile, as the division into rounds is strictly related to the specific contest. Thanks to the fact that the selection of rounds is visible on the left side, the user navigates intuitively through the platform and has the option to change the round at any moment.

When the Organizer adds and later selects a given round, another view appears that informs the user about new functionalities, namely the ability to navigate to the other tabs.

Now the contest organizer and jurors can assign points to individual candidates, check calculations, and finally see which candidate has advanced to the next round. This gives us a solid, simple, and intuitive process from point A to Z despite the complex and unusual functionality. I concluded that the widget for switching rounds in the contest must be highlighted and always visible on the left side (when entering the contest profile) to facilitate navigation in the application.
