judges to the teams of each pool shall be summed up to award the final points of the event
except for the events in which the criterion for the total points is mentioned specifically.

Late penalty
In order to ensure that the events start and end on time, strict penalty will be applied to any
participating team that is late for the event or submission. The penalty rules are as follows:
A live event is said to have commenced after all the judges are present (no event will be
started before the scheduled time). Deadlines for all the submissions will be disclosed to the
Galaxy Captains.
For submission based events: A margin of 5 minutes is provided to the participants after the
deadline of submission. No penalty will be applied within the provided margin of 5 minutes.
Upon exceeding the 5 minute margin, a linear penalty will be applied which will begin at 5%
and will progress by 5% for every 15 minutes delay (i.e. a total delay of 20 minutes will call
for 10% penalty, a total delay of 35 minutes will call for a 15% penalty and so on).
For live/ stage events, a warning call will be given to the late Pool(s) 5 minutes after the
commencement of the event or the slot. Another window of 5 minutes will be given to the late
Pool(s) after the warning call has been made. Failing to show up after a total of 10 minutes
from the start of the event/slot, a direct penalty of 10% will be applied. This will increase
linearly by 5% every 10 minutes (as elaborated upon in the previous point).
All the late penalties will be applied on the total score achieved by the participating Pool in
the competition after the judges submit the scores.
The late penalty will be applied by the event managers at the discretion of the Galaxy17.
Organising Team. The final decision will be that of the General Secretary, Cultural Council.
In case of submission based competitions, other participating teams are allowed to wait
alongside the managers until all submissions are made in order to ensure the proper penalty
is applied wherever necessary.
