Vituperabatics.

Flamers earn base points on five criteria: language skills,
composition, creativity, pertinence and concision. (In some schools,
bonus points are earned on "performance", but this can lead to
accusations of favouritism and is controversial.)

I like to see (where appropriate) references to historical flames or Y-K-Ws.
That could come under various headings, or maybe "style"?

I think "style" is what came to be called "performance". The idea being
that it would be less controversial. Needless to say it didnt work.

Nope. Style is a valid thing to assess, if controversial.

And on the plus side, "swore at the ref" is not even an offence in
vituperabatics. For obvious reasons.
