For the uneducated, like myself, (in easy to understand terms) what is the difference between GE1 & GE2? please and thank you!!

In theory, nothing but GE1 judges are more visually  inclined while GE2 are more musically inclined

No they didn't.  BD was 2nd at almost every regional in 2015. They were in perfect position to ###### that title if Crown had a bad night...and Crown had a bad night. 

I hear you. Was referring to the 4th place finish at quarters.

BD came from 4th in 2015 as well.

Only because of a penalty at Prelims for having used an electronic metronome in the warmup area.

Interesting recaps. GE tighter tonight.  BD and SCV tied.   Bloo down in visual and 6th in guard.   Crown box 5 in brass and musical analysis. Crown and Bloo tied in percussion. Any of the top can win.  Take your pick.  This is far from a lock for Concord.

On a very basic, watered-down level, GE2 is the general effect of the show from a primarily musical perspective, while GE1 is the general effect of the show from a primarily visual perspective. That is, both caption evaluate based on the overall cohesiveness of show design, but GE2 looks more into how the music works together to create an effect, while GE1 focuses more on how the visual elements work together to create an effect. Both captions have an element of cross-caption evaluation in terms of how the visual serves the music, and vice-versa.

 

Edit: Whoops, got it backward. Fixed.

Going down the sheet a ways...  Music GE judge #1 put Oregon Crusaders 5-6 places lower than judge #2.  Not seeing that kind of disparity in the same caption anywhere else.

I believe they are the same caption, only judged by two different people. Each judge looks at GE Music & GE Visual. They examine total show construction, coordination, synchronicity and timing of music/visual phrasing, etc.  The 2 scores are then averaged out.  There are more knowledgeable folks on here though that likely have a better answer.

At the split regionals, I believe they use the same judges on both nights so that the scores are supposed to be consistent from show to show.

Spread between BK and Phantom on guard score made the difference.  No question Phantom's guard is better and BK's is pretty bad, but 4th place?
