bgg80 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I think he's talking about BD. ???? Maybe some context might help, Since in 2014 Crown was 4th, which is lower than second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeRapp Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Was I alone in thinking Crown was going to be second? It would've been the first time since 2006 (I think) they got lower than second Has a corps ever won three captions and finished third? Tells you how overwhelming the Bluecoats creative concept and execution was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRASSO Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) When it was first established, it was the Top 7. But since then, it has allowed other corps to play at those shows from time to time. With BK landing two straight Top 7 finishes, I hope they make an appeal to DCI so that they can officially become a TOC staple. I believe I heard that the TOC concept was negotiated to have 6 Corps now, with the 7th corps to be one of the remaining 6th to 12th place finishing Corps from the previous year.... AND the 7th Corps selected would be one that their tour schedule that season took them into close proximity to where that TOC show would be held on that nite.

NewParentFan Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Personally.....how the **** does Academy not get high GE ???????? Just wondering...... My question, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baquan Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 My question, too! I have never been able to discern any rhyme or reason behind GE scoring. It's far too vague and imprecise to be so important in determining the outcome, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think it should be only open to corps that have won the world class championship. Bloo now included and Madison should be in there as well.

DawsonBurnes Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 ???? Maybe some context might help, Since in 2014 Crown was 4th, which is lower than second. They won three captions (Colorguard, Brass, Visual) and came out third. BD didn't win a single caption. But that's an averaged score over the three days in Indy. If the captions had been based in finals night, BD would've won Guard and Visual. I was confused as to why Crown didn't win second because I forgot about the caption judging.
