CallipygianKing Posted July 17, 2008 Author Share Posted July 17, 2008 The schedule is going to be whatever DCA says its going to be.Much like going before a judge in court. Yeah, but they've given themselves rules on how to set the schedule. Somebody fetch Tom Peachey! He seems to be the authority around here when we need clarification. Also, Frontier is in Dallas tonight. Good luck, guys 'n' gals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

00Sop Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Just what are all the rules determining seeding at prelims anyway? I know the member corps go on last, but what about the affiliate and associate members? What's the difference between an affiliate and an associate anyway? IT'S ALL TOO CONFUSING!!!! DCA Rulebook, p. 10: 8. Order of Performance (Prelims) – Corps will appear in the order of their highest score during the regular season at DCA sanctioned contests, with the highest scoring corps appearing last. All ties will be decided by drawing. In the absence of the availability of a seeding score for a competing corps, order of appearance shall be any Affiliate Member corps, followed by Associate Member corps, and finally by Full Member Corps as per the following: Affiliate Member Corps – Unseeded Affiliate Member Corps will appear before Associate Member Corps and will draw for position. Associate Member Corps – Unseeded Associate Member Corps will appear after unseeded Affiliate Member Corps, and will draw for position. Full Member Corps – Unseeded Full Member Corps will appear after unseeded associate member corps and will draw for position. DCA Bylaws, Art. VII: ARTICLE VII Membership shall consist of full members and associate members. Commencing for the 2008 season: Full Members – The North American all age corps that finish in the top ten (10) positions at the DCA championship preliminary contest, providing they have competed in at least one (1) DCA sanctioned contest, excluding championship preliminaries and finals, shall be Full Members in a given year. These ten (10) corps will constitute the full (voting) membership for the ensuing year. If there is a tie for tenth (10th) place at the preliminary contest, all corps tied for tenth (10th) place shall be full voting members. Associate Members - The next four (4) highest scoring North American all-age corps at the DCA championship preliminary contest that do not qualify as Full Members. I would say go ahead and cut and paste this for future reference since this discussion seems to occur every year, BUT, there will be a Rules Congress this winter. Who knows what changes will be made?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know much about no geography - or proper grammar - in these parts. We'll just hitch up the mules and ride north to Rochester come Labor Day Weekend. If they let us in the gate, we'll put on a good show for the folks. Promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
