It's fair to say that judges across the country pay attention to what their colleagues are doing for the time being. No one wants to be "an outlier". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vuitton Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 (edited) 22 minutes ago, theonlyfizzle said: Judges views, points and feed backs are important, and contrary to what some folks think of CC now, i disagree with them. I think it's a good show and i do feel the show. I don't think anyone is saying it's not a good show. Of course, it's a good show and the judges are responding well to it, they are in 4th. If Madison was forth i'd be doing cart wheels down the road. But, when we compare it to the top 3 it's just not there on the design level, and that will hold them back. But, again, FOURTH PLACE - that's not bad at all. Not in the least. We are all just discussing are own opinions on the shows and where we think corps are going to place. Those of us who said they were 4th and have design issues have pretty much been proven right. Like I said earlier, if I could do anything I'd be a flag member in Crown's guard. I'd love to perform that book, and I wouldn't care whether I was 1st or 10th. Edited July 17 by Vuitton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is such a great lens through which to view shows one is not connecting with. A good way to check our biases. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different panels, it will shuffle around between Bloo BD and Boston for the remainder of the season imho. Not worth anything but just my thoughts. I think Crown, like PR as @jasgre2000 said, was also put on an island. But things can change at San Antonio and onward. So we’ll see. I could see you being correct. I could also see Bloo running the table with an impeccably performed smartly designed unique show - it will be a challenge to gain ground on them. If they do, that will be a real achievement against some great competition. The competitive arc always looks inevitable in retrospect, but at this moment I can’t tell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My how the times have changed 😉 People don't know what they want, that's why there are 14 varieties of oero cookies..... 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to go back and check to be sure, but my hazy recollection is that the apparent spreads did tighten up last night as to BD but not Mandarins.

Possibly. Most fans believe judges are checking what others have tabulated in the caption that they will be judging that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s nice that there is actual real competition this season and not the foregone - BD is going to win - that we’ve had the last couple of years. Only a couple of years? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing Crown, they’ll have a beautiful show ready by Finals. If you're correct, all bets might be off for a lower finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
