    It's interesting you say that. Because I remember back in 2013 when Crown beat BD at DATR, a BD honk who no longer post here on DCP said almost exactly what you just said regarding altitude.

    And this forum ate him alive.

    Things I remember being said......."No excuses!!!.............. Crown won, BD lost deal with it......................Oh look, BD fans trying to justify their loss to Crown by saying they couldn't breathe................Altitude isn't an excuse as everyone has to perform in it....................Not our fault BD isn't in as good as shape as the Crown performers."

    Certainly not bashing you or Crown in anyway shape or form. I am speaking more in general.

    It's just interesting how a narrative can shift pending the corps we support/ root for. 

     

    All this talk of altitude has made me recall a quote I heard years ago...

     

    "Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude."

    Define General Effect

    General Effect IMO is not just about technique or precision...it's about touching hearts and awakening emotions...It's about that unexplainable feeling when the performers become one with their show...igniting a spark in our hearts that transcends words...It's the intangible essence that sets the great apart from the extraordinary...

    2023 Scores Question

    in DCI World Class Corps Discussions

    So, 2023 tour is shorter than in previous seasons.  Thus, Corps will have less time to clean and revise/add material than in previous seasons.  In theory, this should lead to lower scores across the board than in previous seasons.   So, will we see top scores in the 98+ range?   Or perhaps more like 95 to win?  

    I think high scores are a product of the strength of corps in the top echelon that push the envelope and really don't have any correlation to length of the season at all...comments to that effect in any other year that show would have been a winner is an indicator as well IMO...
