  1. Yes. He would occasionally update overnight in Pyware and load in UDB if something wasn’t working.
  2. Talked to a member. He wrote 10-15 sets a day on Pyware, uploaded to UDB each morning and they learned 90% of the show that way. The only part that was more organic on the field was their ballad .
  3. Got it. No drill. I guess I just watched the wrong show then.
  4. As a major Bluecoat fan, that's just not true. Go watch them back-to-back. I just did. I rarely love the Blue Devils, but they moved a lot. BD was not as visually clean as I expected, and I feel like Bluecoats definitely have a significantly greater amount of choreography and dance responsibilities for their brass. With that said, that's a really great Blue Devils show and they run to spots no more than anyone else at this point and play on the move.
  5. Hopefully they don’t change too much! My favorite BD show in over 10 years.
  6. I wonder what it would take ($$$$) to lure Gaines back. Seems like enough time has passed. The visual design just seemed awkward or cluttered? I would love to see them back to the bent leg marching! The straight leg change has not paid off.
  7. Definitely my favorite show of the summer. Great job tonight Bluecoats! That guard!!!!
  8. Scores https://twitter.com/dci/status/1689757421432897536?s=46&t=iwSTGAOXxAHDHeAVnlGMeg
  9. DCI has nothing to do with Championship rings and there’s no design rules. Each corps designs their own after the season through services like Jolesh and members typically pay for them (usually $150-250) on average. Blue Devils can design a black or white ring no matter what the final recap shows.
  10. They don’t seem to be cleaning at the same rate as others. Maybe it’s too much demand yet again.
  11. Not true. They were penalized for being over in performance time only. Their total time was within the 17 minute according to their Director.
  12. But they haven’t been over 17 minutes all season.
  13. They didn’t get a penalty for the time it took to get on and off the field so who cares?
  14. Wow, Bluecoats did some serious visual cleaning since their last time out.
  15. Love this app. My only wish is to sort the recaps by overall placement just like it does in CompetitionSuite.
  16. Please! It's been confusing trying to find/decipher show threads this year. At least that would help.
  17. I'm NOT disagreeing, but what should these organizations do to prevent potential activity where sexual assault could happen? If policies are in place, whistle-blowing hotlines, and all are trained on mandatory reporting, how can they further limit the interactions between people? I'm not saying they can't be better, I just don't know how any organization (drum corps, traveling sports group, college campus, school district, etc.) can completely handle this. For example, If two staff members or two corps members venture out at 3am at a random school and sexual assault occurs, what can be done to prevent? Over my many years of drum corps, I've seen or known about sexual activity (not assault luckily) happen on member buses, on a staff bus, in the trees at a show site, free days, on a gym floor, people in an empty classroom, and non-drum corps related in high school sports groups and college. (where my roommate stayed overnight in his girlfriend's dorm for over a month until they broke up.) I wouldn't want to be involved in any admin role of any traveling organization right now.
  18. Same. I shared a dorm in college probably like most here.
  19. Between have chaperones patrolling all night in all the gyms during the entire summer too.
