CaliforniaDCfan Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 (edited) Bold-ish Predictions: Blue Stars will not finish in the top 8, and get kicked out of the G8 Teal will make finals At least one corps (could be World or Open, or both!) will have to have an immediate, urgent fundraising campaign DURING the season - if the announced goal is not met, the corps will stop touring mid-season 1st and 2nd place will be separated by less than 0.04 points Edited May 5, 2011 by CaliforniaDCfan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 (edited) In a very bold marketing move to dispel the myth that the paying audience only cares about the G8, DCI will reverse the Friday Simi-Finals order without any prior announcement (i.e. Thursday first place goes on first Friday) and not announce any Simi scores until after the last corps finishes performing. The crowd will so love this idea that the Mandarins, Pacific Crest, and Pioneer will outsell all other corps' in souvies.

BRASSO Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 They'll be no rain-out cancellations of any DCI shows in the month of June. ( I know, I know... but the OP did ask us for " bold " predictions, so what the heck. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hostrauser Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 The 2011 DCI Champion will be one of the "usual suspects" (BD, Cavs, or Cadets); we won't see a first-time champion in 2011 At least 11 of last year's 12 finalists will make Finals again in 2011 (i.e., we won't be seeing more than one new corps in Finals) At least one World Class corps will not make Semifinals, getting bumped by a handful of Open Class corps Neither Phantom or Vanguard will make the Top 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterA Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Madison Scouts will beat Phantom Regiment this year. Pioneer will beat at least 4 corps, including at least 1 if not 2 world class corps. Boston will end up in the top 8, probably in 7th place this year. Vanguard back in top 3. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 INT will find it's way into the G-8 this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouooga Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 My regular prediction is that BD will win. My bold prediction is that BD will win. (see what I did there? ) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Bold predictions? I wouldn't call these bold - more like semi-confident. - there will be two new corps in Finals - one Open Class corps will make Semis - one World Class corps will either be last or next to last at QF - one G-8 corps will fall to the 9-12 slot - one top 6 corps will fall down to the lower half - no corps will go undefeated this year - but the championship scores won't be close between 1st and 2nd Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
