whitedawn Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 composition does not use demand as a factor. there is no demand score. otherwise, the cadets would have scored 20 based on their closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liebot Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 the top box/composition/what the corps is trying to do.........none of that = 'degree of difficulty.' maybe degree of difficulty factors into that score once the other elements of the show's design are calculated, but you're interpreting it incorrectly.

Gorgo Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Good grief, all I hafta do is watch 2001 and 2002 to disagree with the central premise of the OP, at least IMHO. There was plenty of simultaneous playing and booking in those shows, and they won both years. The visuals that accompanied the playing in 2002 were abso-tively stunning. The ending of 2001 as well, with the backward marching block from hell at 200+ bpm, and they played through all of that. The 2001 opener when all hell broke loose after the quiet beginning. I can think of PLENTY of examples from those two shows alone, and I wager that other folks can find similar moments in other shows of the 2000s. And no, I have zero corps affiliation, I am a fan of ALL corps in the truest sense of the word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say 2003 and 2004 are pretty up there in terms of demand as well. Especially 2003. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol...well yeah, I think 2003 was quite a bit harder than 2002. 2004, i dont know as well. Oddly enough, I just watched 2005 about a half hour ago (first time in over a year), and i was more impressed than i remember being. What makes me strange is that I REALLY dont like 2006...
