Under Open Class scoring that was on different sheets?? I may be incorrect. Anybody have more insight on this?

You are correct.

When did open class change to the SAME sheets as world?

I honestly don't know. Maybe 6-7 years ago?

Kaput as in technical failure?

Yes, the electronics completely failed. I could tell because the brass line didn't sound totally amped up anymore.

Hope Boston can add more GE cont.  First ..in MA is real nice.  And it looks like the guards "exposure" is right there with the BD.  Percussion had the same 18.5 as last night and the Cavies gained .5 over their 18.3.  

My bad!  Boston percussion had 18.75 last night.  Even more interesting.

Addendum: the scores on Open Class sheets tended to be inflated by 15-20 points vs. what those corps would get on World Class sheets.

For instance, Oregon Crusaders placed first in Open in 2012 with 93.95, but in World Class Prelims their score was 75.90 (and they placed 19th).

(Strictly speaking, Mandarins were Div. II in 2001; Open Class hadn't been created yet. But the principle is the same.)

I believe the change to the same sheets between open class and world class happened around 2014-2015
