It’s not only a different night, but it’s a whole set of different circumstances. At Allentown in 2019 SCV and Crown performed two different nights. Crown outscored SCV. Many a Crown fan considered that to mean Crown passed SCV. That never happened. Except Allentown is the exception. Same panel both nights and they treat it as one large show over two days, including using Friday's numbers for reference. The comparison is shakier because (1) one set of corps technically had an additional day of rehearsal before competing, and (2) the judges are only human but do their best to remember performances from the previous night. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was over the second week of the season. It does take away from some of the excitement next week so I asked my friend why are we going to Indy if we already know who the winner will be. He said to see who comes in 2nd, 6th and 12th place. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember getting into it with a member of the ABBD crowd over BD getting more time in front of the judges and that's why they win all time according to that poster. Maybe 8-10 years ago heck IDK......But since the ABBD crowd regurgitate the same stuff year after year, after a while all the years bunch together. Going to be catching my flight to Indy later on this evening. Gotta root on my son and Gold at Open Class finals. If I have down time or when I get back from Indy, I will see if I can go back through all my comments, find it, then PM you directly.

That's yet to be seen, but I'd be a little surprised if they do end up putting a judge in the second MA slot for tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I take that back. They swapped out Webb with Paul Smith for tonight but he's the ONLY MA judge. Interesting and surprising they didn't have Webb judge the second night (unless he was unable to).

WarriorWay Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) I very much disagreed on the scores last night… moreso than in a while and it put a sour taste in my mouth tbh, but back here watching again 😅😌 Edited August 6, 2022 by WarriorWay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
