Can't believe this week is already here.  It's always the signal my summer is over, get ready for school next week, and then boom college summer band (on the teaching side of it this time!) and then school starts after that.  

Looking like I'm going to miss the theater for the first time in eight years, band I'm on staff with for the summer has night rehearsals so I'm guessing I'll probably have an assignment on Thursday.  Though honestly after 2016 where the kids were incredibly rude and loud around me I won't miss it THAT much.  Will miss the first half of semifinals as well but finals is open so I'll at least get to see that.

Question about Lucas Oil: Is there re-entry permitted? That's an awful long time to be confined to a stadium (although we may choose to skip OC, tbh). 

They have hand stamps.

This is my first year closely following DCI scores. A question for you veterans: looking back at finals week last year, there was movement between 5th and 6th place (Cavaliers overtook Cadets) and movement between 11th, 12th and 13th places (Scouts dropped from 11th to 13th, Academy slid into 11th and Crusaders took 12th).  It looks like some of that movement actually occurred in the days leading up to prelims, but the semis earlier in the year affected seeding. Is that the typical amount of movement? Would you expect similar this year? If so, which corps do you see potentially moving up or down?

 Good questions, DCIdad, but its so hard to really know if they'll be position movements, and if so, who might that be. Among the top 15 or so, there could be a surprise or two. Some years there is no movement, other years a placement movement for a Corps or 2.  Unless there is a penalty involved, if there are placement movements, its one placement between 2 Corps that change places. Its very rare these days now to see multiple jumps between Quarters and Finals. We can all  speculate if we'll have placement movements from Quarters to Finals, but its really just guesswork or wishful thinking at work for the most part.

Here are the changes during championship week over the past ten years, in the following format:

Corps:  Prelims Perf. Order  >  Prelims Placement  >>  Semifinals Placement  >>>  Finals Placement

(Bold indicates a change in placement.)

As you can see, it is uncommon for a corps to move more than one placement, and a lot of the movement happens during Prelims, and a lot of that, at least in the past six years, is due to the Open Class corps being dropped into the mix.
