Jeff Ream Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 it's called numbers management. fewer corps and more numbers available, so spreads open up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexL Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Which, imho, is BS. If a corps is box 5, they should be box 5, regardless of how many corps there are. Theoretically, with an additional week this year, the scores should have been more compressed towards 100 as more corps should have come closer to maxing out the sheets.

Granny Smith Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) Granny:I'm holding out until I'm old enough that you find me appealing, unless you're one of those cougar types, in which case my 54-old youth and vigor might be right up your alley. Oh dear, Mr. Boo...I'm blushing. To think that someone as well respected and connected as you would be interested in me gives me the tingles. Not to mention how fabulous you look in that satin green Cavies alumni corps shirt thingy...yowzers! I suppose I should stop writing before I say something that will embarrass the both of us. P.S. Since things didn't pan out last year with Mr. Hopkins, maybe I should reset my hopes. Edited August 19, 2010 by Granny Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbandguy Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 See? Here's the problem - IF Corps #12 pulls it all together and performs THE kick butt show of the night, should they be scored low in order to "leave room" for the "Top" 11 No they shouldn't, BUT keep in mind it isn't all just about the PERFORMANCE. There are usually several reasons why a corps is in position 12...or 20...or 6 and it's not just about the performance level. A corps can give the "kick butt performance of the night", but chances are if they are in the 12 spot their show was simply NOT of the level to be in the top few NO MATTER HOW WELL THEY PERFORM.

Depth of writing in the top box separates the men from the boys. The more responsibilities on the performer in one event gets more credit even if it is performed at 90%.
