# KScore results and rankings > How results, tiebreakers, and awards work if you're coming from KSCORE. **Before you start:** You'll want [score settings configured](https://docs.gymart.org/levels/individual-score-settings) and [scores entered](https://docs.gymart.org/scoring/enter-scores-judges-companion). ## What you're used to In KSCORE, results show up on live.kscore.ca with a 4-second refresh. Results are public by default. You can print them or display them. Tiebreakers and team scoring (6-5-4, all scores, etc.) are configurable. Medal thresholds are set up for Gold, Silver, and Bronze. ## How it works now ### Results are live, automatically You don't have to do anything special to publish results. As scores come in and get verified, rankings update on [Gym Art Live](https://live.gymart.org) in real time. Not every 4 seconds, but actually in real time. The system calculates all of these automatically: * Individual apparatus rankings * Individual all-around * Team apparatus * Team all-around [Results overview](https://docs.gymart.org/results/index) ### What spectators see Spectators can view results in a web browser at live.gymart.org. No app needed. There's also a Gym Art mobile app for iPhone and Android if they want push notifications and easier navigation, but it's optional. If you want to control who sees results, you can password-protect your meet. You can also generate QR codes that make it easy for people in the venue to pull up results on their phones. For in-venue displays, you can put live scores on a projector or TV screen. [Live results](https://docs.gymart.org/results/publish-live-scores) ### Tiebreakers (you get more control here) In KSCORE, tiebreaker rules are set at the event level. In Gym Art Meets, you can set different tiebreakers for each type of ranking, independently, for each level. So your individual all-around tiebreaker can be different from your individual apparatus tiebreaker, and your CCP levels can use different rules from your Xcel levels. The ranking contexts you can configure separately: | Context | What it ranks | | --------------------- | ----------------------- | | Individual apparatus | Per-apparatus ranking | | Individual all-around | All-around ranking | | Individual vault | Vault-specific ranking | | Team apparatus | Team apparatus ranking | | Team all-around | Team all-around ranking | And the tiebreaker algorithms you can choose from: | Algorithm | What it does | | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | | Do Not Break Ties | Gymnasts share the rank | | Compare E then D | Look at execution first, then difficulty | | Compare D then E | Look at difficulty first, then execution | | All-Around Score | The all-around total decides | | Cascading All-Around | Progressively drop the lowest apparatus score | | Cascading AA then E then D | Progressive drop, then execution, then difficulty | | Oldest Age Wins | The older gymnast gets the higher rank | | Youngest Age Wins | The younger gymnast gets the higher rank | [How tiebreakers work](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/index) ### Bump ranks When two gymnasts tie, should the next rank be skipped? For example, if two gymnasts tie for 1st, is the next one 2nd or 3rd? * **Bump on**: 1st, 1st, 3rd (standard competition ranking) * **Bump off**: 1st, 1st, 2nd (dense ranking) This is set per level. [How bump ranks work](https://docs.gymart.org/levels/bump-ranks) ### Team scoring In KSCORE, you configure team scoring with options like 6-5-4 or all scores counting. In Gym Art Meets, the idea is the same but the settings are a bit more explicit: * **Count-from** is how many gymnasts on the team contribute scores * **Count-toward** is how many of those scores actually count for the team total * **Selection method** is how the counting scores are chosen (top N, for example) This is set per level. [Team score settings](https://docs.gymart.org/levels/team-score-settings) ### Awards and subdivisions If you use subdivisions (the feature that lets you split big age groups across sessions), you can choose whether each subdivision gets its own awards or whether all gymnasts in the age group are ranked together regardless of which session they competed in. This is a toggle: "treat subdivisions as award groups." On means separate awards per subdivision. Off means subdivisions are just for scheduling.
