OldBones Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Just wondering, If Open Class shows are an average of 9m and World Class is average 12m Will all corps now perform 11-13m shows? If OC stays with an avg 9m show, will their score reflect the shortened show? Does it matter? Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Ream Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I believe that shouldn't be an issue, but ask in the roundtable section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dir_en_X Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I would be more concerned with the length of the day. Say the top 5 corps from the OC go to WC Quarters. Though on average OC corps have shorter shows, it's bumping up the # of corps to +/- 30 corps and extended the day by about an hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I would be more concerned with the length of the day. Say the top 5 corps from the OC go to WC Quarters ... If I were the director, or marching member, of "any" OC corps my reaction would be: Great; let's do it! This is why we spent the summer doing this! We get to perform another time before heading home! So, why are you limiting it to the top 5 OC and not all of the OC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe all OC corps will be competing in Quarterfinals. I guess the question I am asking is that if your show is only 9m long, do you get penalized for being under time at Quarterfinals.

drumno5 Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 All OC corps have the option to participate in WC quarterfinals. But that's not what the o.p. asked: "... the question I am asking is that if your show is only 9m long, do you get penalized for being under time at Quarterfinals?" Anybody know anything about the timing rules for open vs. world class? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody know anything about the timing rules for open vs. world class? And I was responding to the comment that said, "I believe all OC corps will be competing in Quarterfinals." We do not know if all will be there. And I seriously doubt that the OC corps will have to change the length of their shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
