Musicman1084 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Boston should have still beaten BK in my opinion, though BK was much improved. Madison just finished. Just my opinion, but I feel that based on performance alone they were very far ahead of both BK and BAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamarag Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 (edited) Well, those numbers likely answer the Crossmen/Troopers/Blue Stars/Spirit questions. At least as far as making finals goes. Edited August 9, 2013 by Kamarag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywhopper Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Heh, on the recap page, Boston is now rated #28 in the Penalties caption. 27 corps are tied for #1 with 0.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywhopper Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Nice, Boston has the highest caption scores of the night so far with an 18.3 in both Percussion and from one of the GE Visual judges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perc2100 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Their penalty was relayed by rondinaro in the theaters. It's a #### shame because the effect was breathtaking. Watching them emerge from the tunnel in a cloud of dust was an amazing effect. So the real question: is it worth the penalty when BAC is in Finals regardless of the penalty & they're not really that poised to make Top 6 anyway? I guess we can wait to see where Madison and Cavaliers end up, but is the awesome effect worth the penalty, or do you drop the penalty to place a few placements higher?

Depends on how close they are to Cavies and whether they want to try to make a point against the G7. Are there any actual benefits to placing 8th or 7th rather than 9th or 10th? eg with show payouts in 2014 or revenue sharing this year?

When Surf was in Open Class they had a spinner to choose the show's ending, which included "Take the Penalty". When that option landed, the corps raced across the front sidelines and played in the audience's face. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
