My $0.02:
1. Have a logout
2. Provide a wider selection of ratings -> "1 through 5", for instance, rather than only three.
3. Default to 'No Selection' or something other than 'Exceeds Expectations'
(If there are no 'T's during the game, for instance, how can you provide a rating?)
4. Are there categories that the questions can fall into? (providing categories of questions might be easier to navigate than one long list)
Otherwise, very easy to use and having a Comment box for each question is good!
I'm not in any position to be evaluating other officials, but I know from past evaluations in other situations that I would be hesitant to rank "Exceeds Expectations" for about anything - we were always urged to "get 5's" from our customer evaluations and I was always thinking how I would never rate someone with a 5 unless they really were flawless - and they can't be flawless every time! I think I would prefer a system of ranking that ranged from one through ten, and expect that the best officials would tend to average ratings of about eight. Besides, if an officials "Exceeds" my expectations three times in a row, then by the fourth time they have only "Met" my expectations - but they are still no less qualified to work that level.

Thanks for your input. I can't believe I forgot a logout, oops.
About the rating system. Our old form was a 1-5 job. However the board found that it wasn't working too well. We developed this form on the basis that for each level an official is at we expect certain things. For instance a 4 (first year official) our expectations for Communication w/ partners is lower than what we would expect of a 2 (experienced frosh/jv official). We are in the process of putting together a list of what we expect to see in each level. I personally like the 1-5 thing myself, oh well.
When it's all done it will default to N/A, but for something I was testing it was easier to leave that option out. I like the idea of categories, just not sure the best way to implement it. Our old form was in categories and if you think about it the areas fall into a logical order on the online form. I'm not sure if I'd rather add a title before each section and keep it all on one page or move to a multipage system and have a few categories on each page. Thanks again for all you input it's appreciated.
