Restarting a Round

Overview

Restarting a Round clears out its judging progress and puts it back to Queued, so it can be run again from the start. It's used when a round needs to be redone — for example, marks were submitted incorrectly and need a clean slate.

Restarting is a Round Manager action available to Scrutineer. It clears all marks submitted for the round and cannot be undone.

What Happens When You Restart a Round

1. For each of the round's dances, submitted marks are deleted — placements, if this is the Final round, or recalls, for every other round.
2. Each round dance's status resets to Queued.
3. The round's status resets to Queued, and its start and end times are cleared.
4. The change is pushed out in real time, so Adjudicator, Emcee, and Deck Captain views update automatically.

Restarting only clears marks — it does not remove or change the round's entries, so the same competitors remain in the round and Start can be used to run it again.

Conditions for Restarting a Round

A round can be restarted only if all of the following are true:

• The round hasn't been Finalized. Once a round's results are finalized, it can no longer be restarted.
• The round is In Progress or Completed. Restart isn't offered for a round that hasn't started yet (Created or Queued) or that's already been Skipped.

How to Restart a Round

1. Open the competition's Scrutineer view and go to Round Manager.
2. Select the round you want to restart from the side navigation.
3. In the Round Control panel, click Restart.
4. Confirm in the dialog — this resets all submitted marks and cannot be undone.

Once confirmed, the round shows a Queued status badge again, and Start becomes available to run it once more.
