MotorCityMusician Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I always thought show line-ups were based on current scoring trends. Cavies on last? Crossmen are 1/2 hour before intermission but Glassmen and Troopers are on after. Just an observation, I know there are as many theories on line-up as there are on slotting. lineups are based off last year scores and if a corps has a homeshow they go on last.

oldbandguy Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) I always thought show line-ups were based on current scoring trends. Cavies on last? Crossmen are 1/2 hour before intermission but Glassmen and Troopers are on after. Just an observation, I know there are as many theories on line-up as there are on slotting. There's no big mysterious "theory" here. The lineup is determined by how a corps placed the prior year. There is a drawing in groups of 3. (1,2,3 - 4,5,6 - etc) If a show has any corps that placed in the top 3 the previous year...they go on last. If they have 2 or 3 from the previous year they hold a draw. The Cavies finished 3rd last year, the Cadets 1st. Cavies won the draw between those two to go on last. As stated, a home show means the corps will go on last. This is not a home show for the Cavies.

jkingqm Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 The heat index at 4p is 108 degrees. Yikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWonka Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I know that Broken Arrow is a home show of sorts for the Cavies. Kinda weird, but they've been housed on the show sight every year I can remember, hence going on last. Actually it was the home show for Black Gold for years and was at Union. Now I just think it's a fundraiser for BA and held same time as the OBA Directors Convention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadMadMan Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 The heat index at 4p is 108 degrees. Yikes. We just got out of the pool at Aloft, so we're feeling good. About to head to Joe's Crab Shack and then on to the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad Crossmen dont get to claim home show for San Antonio. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not a home show for the Cavies. so DCI shifts the order at regionals based on the current year, but not at the other shows? that doesn't make sense... (not saying that's not the way it works though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
