The object of the tournament is to get as many points as possible!

My calculations are based on 'mp', which stands for MILLIPOINTS. This is easier than thinking about 1/7000 of a point.

Architecture

One unit of architecture gives 1.25mp.

Smoothing any wall, regardless of stone/gem/ore: 8 Smoothing any floor, regardless of stone: 6 Engraving any wall, regardless of stone/gem/ore: 10*quality Engraving any floor, regardless of stone/gem/ore: 10*quality

Building a wall out of gypsum blocks above ground: 14 Building a wall out of gypsum above ground: 14 Building a wall out of willow above ground: 14 Building any of these walls BELOW GROUND: 8 Gypsum floor below ground: 6, and overwrites a smoothed floor Building a wall out of copper below ground: 8

Fortifying a wall: LOSES the smooth-wall bonus Building a fortification out of gypsum: No gain

Building a smelter out of a gypsum block: 5 Building a wood furnace out of a limestone block: 10 (and 10 displayed..)

Building a retracting 3x5 bridge aboveground out of 4 claystone: 12 (displayed too) Building a retracting 3x5 bridge aboveground out of 4 jet: 12 (displayed too) Building a retracting 3x5 bridge aboveground out of 4 jet blocks: 20 (displayed too)

Building a stonefall trap with base-quality gypsum mechanism and 1-value stone: 30 arch, 33 displayed (the +3 is from loading the trap) Building a stonefall trap with a -gypsum mechanism- and 1-value stone: 60 arch, 63 displayed Okay, so this just uses the value of the mechanism (plus the stone for display only).

Taking a constructed door and building it somewhere: Adds to architecture and displayed.

So, constructing walls has very little point, and making blocks for that purpose has even less point. Remember that blocks do not have quality, and neither do bars! Furniture on the other hand can be very valuable to architecture. Statues are the best use of stone (25 value for one stone) but aren't as good for metal, where they take 3 bars. For metal, the best furniture is probably chains for stand-alone decoration (10 value for one bar), although studding (10 value and no fuel) is smarter.
