I like it. One more thing the spreadsheet lets you do. For my conference, we set up a calculation that averaged the scores of each reviewer (judge in your case.) because some gave almost everyone top scores and some gave almost everyone low scores. A particular score could be compared with the average for a reviewer to see whether they hated a paper (a 3 when their average was 5) or loved it (3 when their average was 1.) You probably could do this by eye, but we had hundreds of reviewers.
I just thought of another application. When I did the index for my book, I entered each term in a spreadsheet with the page numbers in columns. I could copy and paste the term from the proof, which reduced spelling errors, and I could alphabetize easily. My wife uses index cards, but my way was much faster and easier.
