BRASSO Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) INT has to perform twice! Its a DCI conspiracy at work against them. Everybody knows it too, and its just so unfair. Edited July 19, 2015 by BRASSO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) What DrumManTX said... The troopers have the biggest change from last night. Going on 2.5 hours earlier next week. They just need to reset their clocks ahead 2.5 hrs, and they should be just fine. Edited July 19, 2015 by BRASSO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How_Will_It_End? Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 IMO BAC should move up. Very much under scored GE, guard , drums and music balance front selection/AMPs etc. Great voice unlike anything in DCI including the tape stuff. Look at BK the kids due a great job with easy show. Their uni's color wash out their production. ( 1990 show type). Hitler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbandguy Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 This is going to be an interesting week at the top prior to Atlanta. Bluecoats and Crown seen each other 3 times before then and Blue Devils 2 times....and all of the top 5 will be together the night before in Murfreesboro. SCV sees BD 2 times before Atlanta. Looks like Cadets have 3 days in Broken Arrow before they meet up with the other contenders at Murfreesboro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMcomguy Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) I'm pretty confident that its the draw of the judges at Finals that has some bearing on the outcomes.. not these Corps Performance order positions drawn at shows here in July. Just ask the staffs at BD and Phantom in 2008 how they both felt about the luck of the 2 Percussion Judge draws for Finals Night in 2008. BD could not have drawn a worse Percussion judge draw, & Phantom a better Percussion Judge draw with the 2 Judges drawn. Phantom upset BD by 1 tenth at the Finals Championships, and in my opinion, with that small of a margin, the luck of the judge draw played a significant factor in that close outcome, imo. Sorry, calling a spade a spade here. BD's percussion sucked ALL YEAR in 2008. Not just a Finals. That is a fact. And actually, one of the percussion judges at Quarters already had BD in 5th and down 19.7 to 18.8 to Phantom. Almost a full point! So this wasn't some grand revelation on Finals night because of the judges who were "drawn" for the job. Taking a closer look, Phantom's drum scores went from 19.7/19.8 in Quarters to 19.6/19.7 in Semis (dropped) to 19.8/19.9 in Finals. So between Prelims and Finals they went up a total of a tenth of a point (they're averaged from both judges). Ohhhhhhhhhh nooooo. BD went from 18.8/19.5 to 18.9/19.3 to 19.0/19.0. Finals was actually the only night BD didn't have a judge still in the 18's!!! Are we saying Phantom wasn't allowed to improve a tenth in percussion over the course of those three nights? While BD simply continued to pound like trash cans? Dare we even take a look at judges being divas and just wanting to REALLY make statements??? May I direct you to last year.... BD's GE and Visual scores over three nights: P: 19.7 19.5 19.5 19.9 | 19.8 20.0 19.9 -- 1 Perfect score S: 19.9 20.0 19.8 19.7 | 19.9 19.9 19.9 -- 1 Perfect score F: 20.0 20.0 20.0 20.0 | 20.0 20.0 20.0 -- 7 Perfect scores Nobody is complaining about the draw of the judges. It was just about making a statement for the sake of doing so. Judges are irrational and ridiculous as can be, when they want to be. That is what we get for mixing in WGI (i.e. creators of "World Class" and an actual "Box 6" on the sheet) with this activity. But 2008 was about as level headed as you could get from the percussion and music side of things. And I'll stick to that until I die. (And by the way, Phantom and BD's final score was actually separated by 0.025, not 0.1. Just for the sake of clarifying that for you...)
