  1. I love Phantom's show this year (LOVE IT) but seriously regret that they changed the big hit in the slow movement to add all these fancy decrescendos. That hit was DEVASTATING early in the season, and now its less. Why did they change it?
  2. SCV couldn't be bothered to finish their show, and neither could flo.
  3. I have 1.5 to 2 hour drive to either of the WI venues. I staked them out on google maps and they both look like High School football fields with low bleachers. Can anyone tell me what Cedarburg or Madison look like and would it be worth the drive to a high school stadium?
  4. I still think that not allowing ties in each judging category leads to big problems with the overall rankings after all 11 judges' scores are added up together. I'd like to hear what a statistician would say about this system. Say you have say 5 groups deserving a 9.4 in one category. It really shakes out to 9.2, 9.25, 9.3, 9.35, 9.4, 9.45 or worse. That .25 spread on what should be a tie is a big problem in tight competitions. Now if they all actually got a 9.4, would those 5 groups tie in the final score? It seems unlikely given there are 10 other judges' scores. Trying to score the top 10 groups with only 21 points that range from 9.0 to 10 that does not allow ties is just too inaccurate. Doing that across 11 judges is really inaccurate. The only scoring I trust is the ranks of individual judges. The way the 11 judges add up to a winner does not seem accurate to me at all.
  5. Does Flo seriously have the stereo channels reversed? I just did a sound channel check and my stuff is OK but Scouts and Academy's sounds were clearly flipped.
  6. What's better than a great ending to a drum corps show? 2 great endings!
