I'm really happy with my final placement of 4th. You can't always win and I think getting 4th in a season with double champs isn't bad.

Kaiju Corps is just happy to participate. We might not have the experience or the raw talent to really push for the win. But we are happy to have made Finals in Class A and then be able to perform in the Championships here.

You know Star I thought I might have gotten your captions for Open when you said that. I probly didn't but I did notice that I'm ahead of you now so I thank who ever did. Though there aren't many above you in Open.

Something kinda funny Ivory Brigade is also a Missouri Corps though we are down in Springfield MO

That really was a tight race in Open Class in Arizona a difference of .11 in the top 4 of the night. And less than a full point between the top 5. Abracadabra Academy is really fighting to get a chance to participate in the World Class Championships.

From what I understand it is to reward consistent placing. Rather than coming from nowhere in the finals to win the entire division it is a reward for usually placing high in the standings from the start.

Ivory Brigade has been doing decently in most shows. Sad that we haven't yet won a sweeps round. Always placing second in them. First getting upset by the Dark Knights in Rockford and now having last seasons Silver Medallist Circle City Sound beat us in Boise. Hopefully we can get things together and actually manage to win a round. As a side note Ivory Brigade was my only group not to lose at least 2 points last night.

Now to find out if last season was just a fluke for Ivory Brigade.

Ivory Brigade will be there as well.

I love the idea of limiting the Class A GE captions. I discovered really quick during the live season that things didn't matter that much if I didn't have the best or second best GE groups for my GE.

This is what I get for not paying attention I was going to nominate Ole Miss's stadium.

This was a nice surprise to come home to after being away from the internet for the past week. I was expecting to be much farther down with all of my groups but they all put in some great performances when it counted. Ivory Brigade especially eeking out some amazing corps for first place in their rookie season. Congrats to Mercury and Xothyme as well for besting Open and A Classes.

I'm sad my corps will be going as is into finals. I'll be out of town at a Convention starting today with no internet access.

Some fun info Kaiju Corps just finished their new ending today but it won't be in place tonight so that we can clean it a bit more. So look for Kaiju to be shooting back up the Class A charts soon.

Kaiju Corps is undergoing a major overhaul so I expect them to fall during this week of shows, but should make a steam rolling comeback right before finals week.

I'm loving the competition in the top 12 of World Class less than 1 point difference between us all.

Just so you know you have Kaiju Corps in Class A twice. So we should have 22 points.

You guys had some great Re-writes to pull up as much as you did. I thought for sure that Ivory was gonna take the competition again and you steamrolled out of nowhere.

Ivory Brigade was doing pretty good despite the fact that I missed the reshuffle and was locked in two points below the max until just now. So expect Ivory Brigade to bring it even more. Good news for you guys in Open Class Abracadabra Academy still hasn't been able to update for their extra points.

Woo hoo my groups ended up sweeping the Midwest Regionals. So even if we don't win in finals we still will have one set of gold medals.

Well McLovin, don't think that Thoroughbreds will have it easy in the Midwest. Abracadabra Academy is sitting right behind you in points and have on a couple different occasions surprised everyone with 1st place finishes. Ivory Brigade is hoping to get back in the Sweepstakes race as well. But they will have Buckeye Brass and The Stud Bolts to contend with. They are going into the show with a slight lead, but anything can happen. Kaiju Corps is just trying for improvement. They have the youngest members and the most inconsistent. Bouncing from the top of the boards to the bottom and back again. Now sitting on the edge of the top 12 so hopefully we can get them more consistent.

Don't worry we have tweaked our show for the CLASS championships.

So yeah after tomorrow's event that board is going to look a lot different. Most of the top groups are all going to be at the same event.
