# Ten Dimensions Detailed Scoring Guide

## 1. Plot Logic (Weight: 15%)

Core judgment: Is the story's causality convincing?

**10-9**: Tight causality, all foreshadowing resolved, reversals surprising yet plausible, no logic gaps
**8-7**: Main plot reasonable, few unresolved threads but no major gaps, twists mostly valid
**6-5**: Major logic gaps or excessive coincidences, missed foreshadowing, some forced twists
**4-3**: Causal chain broken, "deus ex machina" present, characters dumbed down to serve plot
**2-1**: Plot chaotic and illogical, contradictory, unreadable

**Check**: Any dumbing-down moments? Number of coincidences reasonable? Key turns adequately foreshadowed? Causal chain complete?

## 2. Character Development (Weight: 15%)

Core judgment: Are characters believable? Do readers care about them?

**10-9**: Multi-dimensional characters, each major role has independent motivation and growth arc, readers empathize or feel hostility
**8-7**: Characters distinct and consistent, growth trajectory present, supporting cast not marginalized
**6-5**: Characters have personality but not deep enough, some tool characters, incomplete growth arcs
**4-3**: Flat characters, behavioral motivations vague, supporting cast reduced to plot devices
**2-1**: No discernible personality, actions lack explanation

**Check**: Does each character's behavior match their profile? Any sudden personality shifts? Do supporting characters have narrative purpose beyond the protagonist?

## 3. Writing Quality (Weight: 12%)

Core judgment: Accuracy and beauty of language expression.

**10-9**: Precise and expressive language, rhythm highly matched to emotion, distinct style, no redundancy
**8-7**: Writing fluent and accurate, effectively conveys plot and emotion, occasional brilliance
**6-5**: Basically clear but with redundancy, verbosity, or imprecise wording
**4-3**: Language not smooth, low information delivery efficiency, excessive meaningless description
**2-1**: Basically unreadable, numerous language issues

**Check**: Sentence patterns too uniform? Description too much/too little? Dialogue-to-narration ratio reasonable?

## 4. Worldbuilding (Weight: 10%)

Core judgment: Completeness and self-consistency of the setting.

**10-9**: World unique and complete, rules self-consistent, unfolding rhythm perfect, new elements integrated naturally
**8-7**: World complete, main rules consistent, setting doesn't overpower story
**6-5**: World present but incomplete, some rules contradictory or forgotten
**4-3**: Setting hollow or piled on but unused, rules contradictory
**2-1**: Nearly no worldbuilding, or too chaotic to comprehend

**Check**: Any "throwaway settings" introduced but never used? Rule contradictions? Setting reveals too concentrated or dragging?

## 5. Pacing Control (Weight: 12%)

Core judgment: Fluidity and起伏感 of the reading experience.

**10-9**: Pacing perfect, climax/trough distribution reasonable, info density appropriate, no reader fatigue
**8-7**: Pacing reasonable, tension and release balanced, occasional speed issues but not disruptive
**6-5**: Pacing imbalance occurs (consecutive setup chapters with no climax, or climax too dense)
**4-3**: Pacing severely out of control, heavy padding or info bombardment
**2-1**: No pacing concept whatsoever, reader cannot sustain reading

**Check**: How many consecutive chapters without climax? Info density too low/high chapters? Opening pacing gripping enough?

## 6. Originality (Weight: 8%)

Core judgment: Does the story and setting bring freshness?

**10-9**: Eye-opening original setting or narrative approach, breaks genre conventions
**8-7**: Innovative elements or excellent reconstruction of common tropes
**6-5**: Standard fare, some innovation effort but not outstanding
**4-3**: Heavily reliant on existing tropes, no notable innovation
**2-1**: Copied settings or so trope-heavy it's unrecognizable

**Check**: What fundamentally distinguishes this story from similar works? Which elements are "first time seeing"?

## 7. Emotional Resonance (Weight: 10%)

Core judgment: Is the reader moved by the story?

**10-9**: Strong emotional impact, readers deeply empathize, multiple natural tear/laugh/thrill moments
**8-7**: Emotional delivery effective, readers feel characters' joys and sorrows
**6-5**: Emotional delivery basically adequate, but some moments feel forced or emotionally numb
**4-3**: Weak emotional delivery, readers cannot connect emotionally
**2-1**: No emotional design, dry narrative

**Check**: Are key emotional scenes well-crafted? Any forced sentimentality (not heartfelt)?

## 8. Dialogue Quality (Weight: 8%)

Core judgment: Does dialogue advance plot, reveal character, and read naturally?

**10-9**: Every line has subtext, highly personalized character voices, advances plot or deepens character
**8-7**: Dialogue natural, characters distinguishable, some standout exchanges
**6-5**: Dialogue adequate but unremarkable, character voice differentiation insufficient
**4-3**: Entire cast speaks with same voice, dialogue info density too low or too high
**2-1**: Dialogue illogical, character tone mismatched with identity/personality

**Check**: Without speaker tags, can you distinguish characters by language? Is dialogue "natural communication" or "mouthpiece"?

## 9. Structure (Weight: 5%)

Core judgment: Are chapters and overall structure clear and organized?

**10-9**: Exquisite structure, multiple lines interwoven without confusion, chapter divisions rhythmic, foreshadowing perfectly resolved
**8-7**: Structure clear, chapter divisions reasonable, main/sub-plot relationships clear
**6-5**: Structure basically complete, but some chapters unnecessary, multi-plot occasionally confusing
**4-3**: Structure loose, chapter divisions arbitrary, sub-plot connection to main plot vague
**2-1**: No structural sense at all, written as it comes

**Check**: Does each chapter have a reason to exist? Multi-plot transitions natural? Overall setup-development-turn-resolution complete?

## 10. Reader Appeal (Weight: 5%)

Core judgment: Can it keep readers reading?

**10-9**: Unputdownable, every chapter has a hook, readers need to know "what next"
**8-7**: Readers have follow-up desire, but occasional periods of reduced motivation
**6-5**: Readers could take it or leave it, lacking sustained reading drive
**4-3**: Readers easily abandon, cliffhangers weak
**2-1**: Zero reading desire

**Check**: Do first 3 chapters hook readers? Chapter-ending cliffhangers effective? Reader expectations satisfied in stages?
