(3) 舞台表現：20%（台風、肢體動作、團隊默契）
(4) 參賽隊伍凡有人員出場或講話等表演動作即開始計時，比賽時間限制為6至8分鐘；未滿6分鐘之參賽隊伍，每1分鐘扣1分，未滿1分鐘以1分鐘計算；第7分鐘舉黃牌提示，超過8分鐘由主辦單位關閉麥克風並結束演出。
(5) 每隊均有2分鐘撤場時間，未於規定時間內清場完畢者，經主持人口頭警告後，該隊「團隊表現」項目成績以零分計算。
(6) 演說內容非決賽公告主題相關內容者，該隊「故事內容」項目成績以零分計算。
(7) 非經主辦單位核可之參賽人員，不得替代或頂冒，違者撤銷該隊資格。
4. 注意事項：
說故事比賽有別於戲劇演出，須由參賽隊伍以各式聲音、口語方式，配合臉部表情呈現。除了背景音樂相關的音響設備外，道具、佈景、化妝及誇張（戲劇性）的肢體表演一律「無計分」；本競賽無提供換場或打燈光之設備，背景音樂播放及所需音樂片應由各隊自理。
(三) 成績計算說明
成績計算方式採新式名次積分制。詳細說明如下：
1. 評審評定各隊「分數」。
2. 依評審個別「分數」轉換成相對應之「等級」。
3. 再依等級加總後之「等級積分」決定等級名次。「等級積分」最低者為第一名，依此類推。
4. 若遇「等級積分」相同者，再依該隊「累計總分」高低擇優錄取。
(1) 初賽時同列該名次，擇優取至前十名為止。
(2) 決賽時同列該名次，擇優取至前三名為止。
5. 評分範例如下：
團隊 Judge1 Judge2 Judge3 等級積分 等級
名次 累計

分數 等級 分數 等級 分數 等級
