KVG_DC Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 (edited) Whew. I thought this was going to have something to do with cooking and eating alternates when the food truck broke down. Edited August 12, 2018 by KVG_DC 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering how often (some) corps tinker towards the end, plenty of them would. Sometimes it helps and sometimes it doesn't. I'm not exactly sure what it would look like, but i can't imagine that corps wouldn't try to utilize that extra minute of teardown to add something to the field. They are already on a tight schedule, the limits end up factoring into what the corps can and cant do with their design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyWonder1911 Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 So...why can't they do both? Add an extra minute of field time for setup/teardown and also another minute for the curtain call? This would only add 24 minutes to the event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Western Burger Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I’m pretty sure they could write this In a way that would prevent corps from abusing it. Something like “each finalist corps shall have one additional un judged minute after final cutoff” or maybe their running timer is paused for a minute while remaining in the final formation.

BoyWonder1911 Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Lol. The audience isn't clapping enough, so now we need to force the corps to stay there on the field for another minute until the crowd feels guilty enough to start clapping again. Because some corps get more applause than others. All corps are equal, but some are more equal than others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
