Why does BJCP scoring go 0 to 50?

One thing we just started was a 2 beer evaluation. 1 on the BJCP list and one from a local place. Hope to get some home brews in there too some day. We plan on this being the 1st 20 minutes or so for every meeting. It will be interesting to see how it goes. We have been doing versions of style evaluations for a while. I need advice on how to get people to step up and volunteer!!
 
I saw a 7 once, and a 48.

I had one that should have been negative 13. It shot out of the bottle soaking the ceiling panel ten feet above the table. Unfortunately there was enough of the vile liquid left to taste. It was a putrid vegetal butter corn cardboard band-aid. We had to take a break. The adjacent judges changed tables to get away from the smell.

I suspect it was from an evil genius with a pathological hatred of judges.

Score 7/50

Review:

Bottle contained angry bobcat. Would not drink again.

(with apologies to XKCD)
 
I read that one before! I hope to write such clear, concise, creative, and hilarious evaluations some day.
