GE 1 judge had BD ahead in content by two points, so it wasn't all just BD being cleaner. 

It'll be a fun couple weeks ahead. 

I think the poster means 2 tenths. Check the recaps.

How is GE judged? By what criteria? 

Well, I'm not going to get into that now. Too tired to do a long write-up on GE, and it's been discussed on this forum many times. To my eyes and ears the Blue Devils have an incredibly effective show, as do Bluecoats. Those are probably the 2 best GE shows in DCI this year. SCV is up there too I am sure.

A decibel meter in front of the audience to measure applause, or at least that's what it should be :laughing:

If you wanted to find a way to limit the creativity of show designs, that'd be a great way to do it

Bloo would have won that handily tonight. So that's not it.

GE is inherently subjective, no matter how much they try to objectify it. Different people/judges see different things.

Judges like what judges like.. I've never understood it either

Would love to see part of the GE score be a crowd reaction score. It would be great for DCI. It would force designers to create shows that audiences enjoy more, no? (not saying BD's show isn't entertaining, the crowd loves them! Especially that intro!)
