The thing I can't get over as I sit here staring at the recaps is that really only two races were even close (i.e. within a half a point). There was a huge spread tonight. 1st to 2nd: 1.05 2nd to 3rd: 1.10 3rd to 4th: 1.50 4th to 5th: 0.60 5th to 6th: 1.90 6th to 7th: 3.45 7th to 8th: 0.25 8th to 9th: 0.85 9th to 10th: 1.30 10th to 11th: 2.30 11th to 12th: 0.40 That's a total spread of 14.7 points across 12 corps!

Also, been meaning to ask this and keep forgetting. Has anybody else noticed on that little promo for the Founders Trophy: As they're going through the corps that have won, when they get to Phantom Regiment they initially show a BD plaque and then quickly pull it away revealing the 2008 Phantom plaque. Kind of a dickish move by DCI but I still find it funny!

Ah it's just replaying the scores retreat. So if anybody wants to see it that didn't get to go to DCI.org before they pull it.

So I closed DCI.org and then re-opened it to check for recaps (which are up) and suddenly the link to the livestream fires back up and starts playing the trophy promo. No idea what it's going to play next lol

RECAPS UP! Crown was 6th in Percussion....ouch.

Wow....over a point. Very mixed response from the crowd.

Here we go....I hate to say it but I think BD has it with Drums, tied for Vis, and GE.

Wonder how close the drum score was. Can't wait for recaps already!

OH ####!!! Brandt just announced the BD won best brass and as they were about to hand over the trophy he announced there was a correction and Crown actually won. Crowd went nuts!

800 users in the thread now. Hang on DCP! You can do it!

"My Body" by Young the Giant is the song playing for any wondering. Really fun song!

Too true lol. They don't call him Gadget for nothing!

Full corps fanfare. Forgot they do this before scores now....for good reason.

All corps are filed in and lined up. Scores should be coming very very soon.

Do we want to designate someone to announce scores so we don't have 30 people posting as once bogging down the site? I'll volunteer

Site just went up for me! Playing a Cadets clip currently. Filler time while the corps file in I'm sure but I'm not complaining!

Hope you're prepared for your site to crash too!

This page is loading slow with over 600 users refreshing and posting. As for DCI...well

Hope to see you there! I don't plan on making missing finals a recurring theme.

Michael Boo: This show is Ethel Murman in a tutu, Francis Ford Coppola in a thong, the ghost of President Lincoln bouncing on a trampoline while the pizza delivery man from Dominos brings in ten gallons of cole slaw for the body painting of Bob Barker. It's all that and none of it. This is dada, and it's not. Whatever it is to you is whatever it is to you, unless it isn't. It's Roslyn Carter on a Schwinn riding backwards into a pool of lime green Jell-o while a recording of Pavarotti plays his rendition of "You're Having My Baby." Oh Boo....your mind works perfectly to be a BD show designer!

Haha welcome to the club! Trust me, if you can handle that much in front of a computer you're going to absolutely love being there in person!

Yup, they allow any and all Open class corps to perform on Thursday, but all on the World class sheets. That's why Oregon Crusaders, BDB, SCVC and Spartans performed in Semi's as well. Last year I was in my seat at 9:00 AM on Thursday morning and watched every Open and World class corps. Nothing like a 13 hour show!

You'll love the new format then! All day Thursday, half day Friday, and Saturday Night. You have to be an absolute junkie to take in that much but I did it last year and loved every minute of it!

I hear ya Tekk, this is only 1 year missing for me and it's driving me insane!
