DrumManTx Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 (edited) 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.

shofmon88 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Yikes.... FloMarching broadcast starts at 11pm for me. Finals weekend is always a joy to try and work into my schedule. Worth it to see the lower corps though. (Looks like it ends at 7:30am with the Troopers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCIdad Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 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). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCIdad Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

N.E. Brigand Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 16 minutes ago, DCIdad said: Is that the typical amount of movement? 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. 2007 Phantom Regiment: 5th > 4th >> 4th >>> 4th Santa Clara Vanguard: 7th > 7th >> 5th >>> 5th Bluecoats: 4th > 5th >> 7th >>> 7th Glassmen 11th > 10th >> 10th >>> 11th Colts: 10th > 11th > 11th > 10th Madison Scouts: 16th > 15th >> 15th Crossmen: 15th > 16th >> 16th Troopers: 22nd > 21st Mandarins: 21st > 22nd 2008 Phantom Regiment: 4th > 3rd >> 2nd >>> 1st Blue Devils: 1st > 1st >> 1st >>> 2nd Cavaliers: 2nd > 2nd >> 3rd >>> 3rd Carolina Crown: 3rd > 4th >> 4th >>> 4th Bluecoats: 7th > 7th >> 7th >>> 6th Santa Clara Vanguard: 6th > 6th >> 6th >>> 7th Blue Stars: 10th > 9th >> 8th >>> 8th Blue Knights: 8th > 8th >> 9th >>> 9th Boston Crusaders: 9th > 10th >> 10th >>> 10th Madison Scouts: 13th > 12th >> 12th >>> 12th Crossmen: 12th > 13th >> 13th 2009 Carolina Crown: 3rd > 2nd >> 2nd >>> 2nd Holy Name Cadets: 4th > 3rd >> 3rd >>> 3rd Cavaliers: 2nd > 4th >> 4th >>> 4th Boston Crusaders: 8th > 8th >> 7th >>> 7th Blue Stars: 9th > 9th >> 9th >>> 8th Phantom Regiment: 7th > 7th >> 8th >>> 9th Glassmen: 11th > 10th >> 10th >>> 10th Blue Knights: 10th > 11th >> 11th >>> 11th 2010 Cavaliers: 3rd > 2nd >> 2nd >>> 2nd Bluecoats: 2nd > 3rd >> 3rd >>> 3rd Madison Scouts: 11th > 10th >> 10th >>> 10th Blue Knights 10th > 11th >> 11th >>> 11th Colts: 14th > 13th >> 13th Academy: 13th > 14th >> 14th Starting in 2011, Prelims expanded to include O.C. corps, and Semis expanded from 17 to 25 corps.
