### Self-score vs judge, by axis

Best round v1, 0–10 per axis

agent self-scoreexternal judge

**Judge:** The pelican reads well, with an orange beak and throat pouch, a white body and a wing extended to the handlebar. Its feet reach the pedals and it sits over the seat area. The bicycle is simplified: there is no visible seat or clear seat post, the chainstay/seat tube geometry is odd, and the handlebars are hidden under the wing. The bird body blob also floats awkwardly over the frame.

### Score by round

Out of 40. Each round starts from the previous round's best SVG.
