Is it just me or do the VOD's of the Stanford show sound a million times better than the Live Webcast showing?

An attempt to answer the question about Regionals/TOC events (if we also add those) I was reading the thread from 2011 in reverse and it appears to work like this: -Predict scores for top 5 (or top 3 for TOC?) -Give spread from 1st to 5th (3rd) -List corps 6-12 (4-8) for bonus (I didn't get the point system for this, if there was any for bonuses) I like the idea of using the top five and the spread. As far as the bonuses go, I like the idea of listing 6-12 also, but I was thinking...what if we add a twist? You can wager up to a predetermined amount of points total (I was thinking like 10-25 for the max amount, and wagering is not required) on the placements (not scores) of the corps who place 6th-12th (or maybe 4th-8th for TOC also). For example: FaustianMachine goes into Minneapolis with a score of 120.5. They decide to wager 18 of their points total on the placements of corps 6-12. What they predict (and format for prediction): 1st-5th as normal Spread as normal 06th: Bluecoats (1.5) 07th: The Cavaliers (3.0) 08th: Madison Scouts (7.0) 09th: Boston Crusaders (0.5) 10th: Spirit of Atlanta (4.0) 11th: Glassmen (0.5) 12th: Crossmen (1.5) *Where the numbers in () notates the amount of points they are wagering per corps What ends up happening: 06th: The Cavaliers 07th: Bluecoats 08th: Madison Scouts 09th: Glassmen 10th: Boston Crusaders 10th: Spirit of Atlanta 12th: The Academy FaustianMachine would end up losing a total of 7 from 6th, 7th, 9th, 11th, and 12th, but would gain 11 points from 8th and 10th. Therefore a total of 4 points would be added to their score from this round, in addition to the points from 1st-5th. -

A quick question from last night. Has Vanguard's opening announcement always been show title first, loooooong pasue, drum major next, corps announcement to finish it? Or was that an error of timing on Crocker's part? It just seemed so....backwards.

Tonight's scores are being translated into Entish for all of our tree drum corps fans. And LotR fans know how long it takes just to say "good morning..." -

I think this new judging system is the work of a higher demonic force. Two corps, both which have finished second, have scores of 66.6. Vanguard yesterday, Stars today. -
They tied for first in 1996 and won in 2008
