Build a live scoreboard for an internal contest

Context and Challenge

A technical community team was running an internal contest where employees earned points for different types of contributions. Each type of content had its own scoring rule — for example, one contribution could be worth 10 points and another 5.

The team needed to combine these rules with contributor activity and calculate individual scores, team totals, and rankings.

Result

The contest results are calculated automatically from the contributor data and predefined scoring rules. As new contributions are added or existing data changes, the same calculation logic can be applied again to update individual points, team totals, and the current ranking without rebuilding the scoreboard manually.

How it is built

  1. The contest rules are stored in a table together with the point value assigned to each type of contribution.
  2. Table Transformer uses SQL to combine these rules with contributor data, calculate points, summarize results by team, and determine the current ranking.
  3. Table Toolbox is used to combine the tables and transformation logic on the Confluence page.
