SimonSays Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Is there anything that could improve their GE scores between now and championship week? It's odd seeing them 6th in GE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonSays Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Well they had a few days off from competition, I thought they would have closed the gap a bit more. But I suppose that's the same with the other corps as well. They ranked first in music overall...they were in third in SA....i think..

karuna Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Winning music but 6th in GE? IMHO the only way this happens is the judges have something deadly obvious in the visual they want changed and the corps is refusing to change. The only blatantly obvious thing I see is the guard getting lost due to lack of contrast in the uniforms. If so I can guarantee the design staff is all for the change. When judges have a united front like this, it’s never about subtle changes. Something no one can argue is on the table. Maybe the designers want to make the change and are being told no by the admin? If that’s the case, sucks for the performers. No way you can win music and not be creating effect! In theory maybe but not in practice. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndrudy2013 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Did Crown put any changes in their show last night? 6th in GE & 6th in Visual, ugh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's odd in that for the past several years, Crown has scored 4th or higher in GE. It seems inconsistent to a lot of us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes a few throughout including a new ending starting at the company front to the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were previously warned on this thread. Those two are just consistent in their biases. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems that if comparing scores in the same year at different venues is questionable, comparing across years with the same corps with different MMs and different Staffs would be HIGHLY QUESTIONABLE. Unless, of course, you are especially devoted to YOUR CORPS. Crown has a good/great show. But their scoring has (for the most part) been consistent. They have been 4th most of the year, with eyes on 3rd. A couple of corps behind them have their eyes on 4th. Good Luck to Crown (and everyone else as well). The final two weeks of the season should be fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any of those captions started scoring in 6th or lower, the discussion would be how inconsistent that would be compared to previous seasons. Homerism has nothing to do with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
