This is an optional reference guide for Factory judges to use when determining if a Tech Sub requires a Dev thread. It is a compilation of what we have commonly seen on average requiring one. Post count and quality is still up to the Factory Judge, but feel free to ask if anyone has any questions.
The addition of new guidelines to the list that need a Dev thread will require a discussion among the judges and admin approval as they come up.
