Clarifications on the score

Hellos! This is a clarification regarding the score and award presented.
I believe most of you have been able to move on already, so I'm feeling better to post this as well.

DISCLAIMER!!! (o.o) Please note that this is only based on what I've read from the source and how I interpreted it. (stated below) and I'm not trying to advocate the management or anything haha.

Regarding the clarification, some of you might be wondering (as seen from the tagboard) why after the reduction in score we received a silver award. (Instead of possibly, a gold.)

Firstly, I believe we were penalized 10% of our score.

3.1 Each school is required to submit a list of no less than 24 and no more than
80 participants. All participants must be current students of the school. They
are required to be in full school uniform or their respective Chinese Orchestra
costumes. 10% of the final mark awarded will be deducted for Chinese
Orchestras that field less than 24 or more than 80 participants. All
participants, including percussionists, are required to remain on stage for the
duration of the performances.

 Secondly, this is the award system.

5.1 The Central Judging provides the opportunity for Chinese orchestras to
benchmark their performance standards. There is no pre-determined number
of gold, silver or bronze awards. Participating Chinese orchestras will be
awarded certificates based on their performances as follows:

• Gold 80% and above
• Silver 70% to 79%
• Bronze 60% to 69%
• Certificate of Participation 59% and below

5.2 To recognise the outstanding achievement of Chinese orchestras that have
attained high performance standards, schools that obtain a final mark of 85%
and above will receive the Gold award (with Honours).

With some mathematical calculations I think it will be quite clear that it is possible to get a Silver from a Gold with Honours score. I'm not trying to put us down or anything. This is just to clarify doubts with regard to the results.
