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

Correct. But if you get a chance go back and read the post's in the quarters thread that year after scores was announced. BD fans was shredded apart by the haters and we was told it goes in the history books as a 4th place finish. It wasn't until 48 hours later when BD won that the haters realizing going from 4th to 1st is a rare accomplishment so they started saying "Well technically BD was in 2nd the whole time".

 You're welcome. People have gone back months with posters, so don't feel slighted on a few " hours ".... lol!

Honored to be hand picked when others said the same. It shows important my one post was. Now I can go to bed with a smile on my face and sound of Silence playing in my heart.

Is it fair that Michael Lentz was judging tonight? I know it is a tight knit activity, but it seems everyone on the planet knew he was going to diss Boston guard...and he did.

Fair enough. Partisans are often hypocritical.

(But "Inferno" should have won over "INK".)

Maybe I didn't see it on the recap. But didn't Blue Devils get a penalty for their ridiculously long time delay? If not, why didn't they?

A show that is superior according to the sheets deserves to win. I'm not sure the words "new" or "groundbreaking" appear anywhere on the sheets. 

 

But the #1 frustration with BD is that they design to the sheets. There has been very little innovation, or even deviation from their stock design aesthetic in a decade. The reason why Bluecoats won last year is not because they had the best performance, they did something that nobody else has ever seen at a very high level. Why else is GE such a high % of the score?

I don't recall that at all. Everyone knew th fourth place finish was due only to the penalty.

Every corps, it seems, has some judge they're sure hates them.

They were waiting on the judges.

If anything, judges should get a penalty. +points to BD
