Again anyone who has ever watched DCI has found themselves watching percussion judges as they duck and run to escape drill. The risk is apparent and completely unnecessary. Again: Why should any judge put any marcher at risk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the kind of get it you want tho. Why can't the judge go get it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t allowed more than 2 yards off the sideline which everyone who ever marched should know automatically per you and others. A rules a rule right?

A rules a rule right? Shows aren't supposed to stop in the middle and then restart several minutes later... But one just did last night. One example among many extenuating circumstances that occur out of necessity. I remember a Brady Bunch episode on this... Classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top guys voted on this... and then gave an interview explaining their decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forced compromise would be a better term and you know #### well the second a judge goes past yard 2.1 hell will be raised.
