mboogey73 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I am interested to see how Cavies stack up tonight. I have a feeling they are going to do real well. Be nice to see Cavies keep surging and finish strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theyremovingit Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I feel like there's a possibility of Coats scoring lower than SCV did last night if they haven't managed to clean their footwork enough. In any other case, Coats will likely pass SCV in terms of score, but probably only by a small amount. I hate the fact that they don't at least put all the top 5 together on the same night at Allentown. The scores' relativity is screwed up because of certain groups performing on different nights, regardless of the fact that the judges are the same.

ElSuarez Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I don't honestly think we should compare the Friday/Saturday scores But I also don't want to over value those scores from Rutgers which I personally feel were ridiculous Also - no worries regarding BD winning this year or at Rutgers - so please don't misunderstand. I just didn't like the caption scoring, GE scoring and/or some of the gaps Felt the corps were in the right order the other night - I love BD so don't misunderstand what I'm saying. They totally deserve to be winning. Exact same panel on the same captions on both nights. Those judges will be very aware of their Friday night scoring when giving out scores on Saturday.

Fred Windish Posted August 2, 2014 Author Share Posted August 2, 2014 Weather update; At this moment (1:40PM) Allentown is sunny, warm, temperature 78 degrees. Local TV says MAYBE an isolated shower in the area tonight. But, we can't confirm what will actually happen until we hear from our favorite drum corps weather guys! For some history - The first Allentown DCI Eastern Championship (1977) featured the following corps, in performance order, for Prelims: Avant Garde Centurians Velvet Knights Simplex Minutemen CMCC Warriors Mighty Liberators Patriots Les Boucliers PAL Cadets Bridgemen Squires Boston Crusaders Imperials Holy Family Defenders Grenadiers Kingsmen Cadets Columbians Seneca Optimists Phantom Regiment 27th Lancers Madison Scouts Oakland Crusaders Black Watch Anaheim Kingsmen North Star New York Lancers Gauchos Bengal Lancers Belvederes Meadowlarks General Butler Vagabonds Crossmen Bon Bons Saints Royal Crusaders and the winner of that first Allentown DCI Eastern Championship appears tonight !

frachel Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Hey Fred, can you edit the 1st post and put the lineup/start times in? Nice to have it all in one thread rather than popping to the other allentown day 2 thread from a few days ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only counts for one third of the seeding for quarters. The scores won't be off by so much that it affects the seeding. Plus it's the same panel.
