    Scoring Mathematics Question

    Yes, it takes all that into account. What it DOESN"T consider is something I saw for the very first time in the Annapolis recap: the color guard judge used half-HUNDREDTHS in the sub-captions for Crossmen. So there were sub-caption scores of 8.625 and 8.425. Was this judge just crazy, or is that a thing now? If this IS a thing, then there are several more variations in total score now (including a 99.999).

    Interesting. I'm guessing it was an error but that it was too late to change?  I don't see the point of using the thousandths place for individual subcaption subscores.

    Everything you said above is correct except Music captions have changed. They eliminated Perc 2 and now have Music Analysis 1 and 2. But like percussion, those are averaged first before being added to brass and percussion scores then divided by 2.

    I made a recap worksheet if you'd like to play around with it, but you're right in your possible scores:

    Thank you for verifying that for me!

    So I've been trying to figure out all of the possible scores to the thousandths.  Would someone be able to verify if this is correct?

    Are there only 8 possible scores when looking at only the final two numbers in each score: the hundredth and the thousandth (excluding penalties)?

    For a score between 100.000 and 99.900, we should see:

    100.000

    99.988

    99.975

    99.963

    99.950

    99.938

    99.925

    99.913

    99.900

    So for each reduction in the tenth range, the scores above should be the only possibilities, right?

    It's been years since I've taken any math course so my terminology is probably wrecked lol.

     

    The math is based on 4 GE Scores/2, 3 VIS Scores/2, and 3 MUS scores/2 [with Perc 1 and 2 avg).

    Of course it’s impossible to really know, but could this be one of the most physically demanding shows ever? I mean It’s not classic Cadets-style with fast whiplash drill for 6 minutes straight, but there’s so much strength involved in all the constant body movement, core-centric poses, moving props, etc. and the tempos aren’t exactly slow.

    It is at least for that guy who does all those crazy flips and jumps off the platforms.  There was one I missed in the past where, right before the full corps dance, he does a running start on a medium platform and pretty much uses it as a vault like they do in gymnastics.  Holy crap is he athletic.  His poor knees in the future tho.
