    Question on Percussion Judges at Finals

    in DCI World Class Corps Discussions

    Posted · Edited by Tupid_06

    If you look at the QF and SF recaps, the scoring was pretty consistent with BD's percussion.

    BD placed 3rd in percussion at Quarterfinals with a 19.15....however....so did the Bluecoats and Crown (for some reason it doesn't say 3rd in drums for them too).

    In Semifinals they also placed third with a 19.10, but the Bluecoats scored the same and Crown was .1 under.

    In Finals BD dropped by .1 to 19.00, Crown went up by .1 and Bluecoats went up by .25

    Phantoms percussion scores:

    QF: 19.75

    SF: 19.65

    Finals: 19.85

    Overall, everything looks to be in order. Percussion scoring over the course of Quarterfinals through finals was not why BD lost...so that theory is debunked.

    Anyway...you can't really tell what cost BD the championship unless you look at Phantom Regiment. PR is the one who had the biggest score change

    PR: +.35

    BD: +.05

    Easy, killer. You are not the audience I am talking about, then. I am talking about the vast majority of the people in the stands who just kind of stare at one another after a BK show wondering what just happened.

    I hope BK will cease being the "hot dog corps". THat is all.

    If you are talking about the average, everyday person being the vast majority....well, I showed my sister the BK show this year and she isn't a big drum corps fan (I force her to watch it with me lol). She really liked BK, and she isn't a big drum corps fan. I was surprised she liked them that much, and it's her favorite show this year (Believe me...I showed her everyone). BK definitely has a niche for dark music, and it's working well for them.

    I'll keep it relatively short.

    I like what the Blue Knights do. I DO find them entertaining because they are different from the other corps in what they play and portray. I'm sick of people saying BK needs to be "entertaining"....they are, but not to you. Go enjoy your crowd-friendly Carolina Crown show while I enjoy my dark BK show and we will all be happy.

    I also enjoy Carolina Crown by the way....
