gcurrier Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 (edited) Wow... this is the slowest rules congress EVER! honestly--I think for the most part it went so nicely this year that unless their are administrative things that are required from you or JOhn, I don't see a need for huge changes...although I do support the starting late rule Edited August 28, 2007 by gcurrier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ced3905 Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 It might be moving slow, but the ribs are moving fast. Can I have fourths? But for real, last season did run pretty smooth. I don't think alot needs to change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gcurrier Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Well then... im going to post a poll then.... regarding the scheduling. Need to see which worked better, last years schedule or go back to the "Regionals" schedule... as far as schedule I do have to say that the only thing that drove me a bit crazy (but I got used to) was the Div II/III tour...my corps usually tour together and always go to each others shows---this year that wasn't possible...

Matthew Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 (edited) Condensed Recap Proposal: Post a condensed recap, instead of posting full caption recaps. Administration will still have the expanded recap, and would be able to give directors their scores upon request (if there was ever a concern that someone didn't get their deserved scores). We would then be able to move to the expanded recap setting the last 2 weeks of the season--by that time, it would be too late for directors to completely overhaul captions as we are limited to the amount we can make. This can be modified to fit any rules that may override this. Rationale: This will eliminate any chance of copying, and directors will not be able to see what each corps got in each individual caption. However, this will require directors to check accuracy of their scores on nights where there captions ARE NOT generated. As it is now, directors can not copy verbatim, but they can get close enough to learn your next move, and steal your captions if they make the draw before you on the next change. This will also help in keeping directors active, as they will have to play an active role in tabulating their own scores on a given night. There are rarely any issues with tabulation, so I feel a condensed recap would not hurt us, it would definitely make things more competitive. You can still see how another corps got their score, you will just not see the individual subcaptions which led them to earning that score. A "Condensed Recap" would include the following: GE Total (40 points possible) Music Avg Total (30 points possible) Visual Avg Total (30 points possible) Total Score (100 points possible) Submitted by Tri-Color Edited September 6, 2007 by Matthew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ced3905 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Good one Matt. I agree. This is what Drumlines.org does sort of for their scores. Then after the cutoff date, all captions are revealed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
