Now, as far as scoring my opinion is basically just that assigning a number is too arbitrary to be worthwhile. I would have if forced, though I may not put much thought into the numbers, which is what is important. Whatever I think of it, I would do it if I couldn't talk them out of it, and really that's as far as I was willing to go, making my side clear and seeing if they agreed or not.
However, scoring aside, the rest of their requirements are very logical. Needing a minimum length, requiring sections discussing specific game aspects like story (where applicable, I am of the understanding such a thing would not need be discussed in a game like Tetris, or maybe even Mario), gameplay, general art direction, controls, and so on.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
