Jerseyboy Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) I really hope CROSSMEN get a good read by judges going on so early. They are definitely FINALS material. as previously stated if these judges do their job all will be fine. RANK AND RATE .

kickhaltsforlife Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I wouldn't' be surprised to see some weird spreads caused by Crossmen going on so early and Cavies going on so late. Who knows.. maybe the Crossmen still are a 17th place corps. I highly doubt that... and didn't think they were a 17th place corps last year either. But it might hurt the Crossmen if some judges make a mistake and don't leave enough space in there if they really are jumping up into the top 12. And it might help the Cavies a bit. Numbers management at big shows can be a real #####. I'm expecting a lot of breathing room at this regional. And I don't think they are willing to spread it too high. So expect some conservative scores. Who knows... I could be full of doodoodada. Can't predict anything this year, haha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecoats88 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 luckily since it's early numbers management is easier since you have a lot of room at the top to leave space, so the judges can pop a number for an earlier corps who does an amazing show without too much fear. I wish they had seeded the corps based on last weeks avarage though so corps would be going on closer to their current competition. I don't like the spot Bluecoats got with the intermission between them and SCV/Phantom. Will be tough for them to take those two in that situation.

barigirl78 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I guess they may put an intermession in where Teal Sound is. Or will they start everyone later to fill in their slot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) the weather forecast is looking good so far. Mid to upper 80s Saturday. Better then tornado warning like two years ago. LOL Yes.. weather report here on Tuesday as you said looks good and clear for Sat. Nite in Minny, with only a few isolated brief showers here and there at 30% probability during the day. Lets hope it stays this way. Edited July 10, 2012 by BRASSO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerriTroop Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Well, the show order has always been a pain for someone. The good news is that we finally get a full panel and head to head competition to sort this whole mess out a little bit. But I'm not expecting to be able to predict finals week placement AT ALL after Minnesota. I like the unpredictability that is finally happening! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
