I'm wondering how it was decided which corps would go on first, since Mandarins and Seattle tied. Was it random?

[geluf]

An unfortunate possition for Crossmen...right before a break. That's gonna make it tougher to leap into the top 12.

bad question maybe, but I can't get onto dci.org right now

how long will the semi's stream be up? I want to be able to watch it another time, since I"ll be out tonight.

According to Tom Peashey on r.a.m.d, they flipped a coin.

and yes

18 tomorrow night

Ray Mar and Dr. Sal Leone flipped a coin

Sal lost - Cascades on first

it's been a great summer - the kids were pleased with their performance

today and just going on tomorrow night was good enough...

of course we now know that we should never send an Italian to a gambling

event (even a coin toss) against an Oriental...

Congratulations to Mandarins and Ray Mar - one of the greatest guys in drum

corps - on another great season.

Sorry - order of appearance listed above is mine, not DCI's. I grouped them in blocks of 6 for easier viewing. :)

As soon as DCI.org (or should I say... if DCI.org) posts their schedule, I'll update this one.

Anyone know what time this shin-dig starts? For that matter, what time it ends and what are all the times in between? I can't open the pdf file on dci.org, I click it and an error occurs (and I do have the latest version of Adobe Acrobat).

5pm on the tickets and the Commandant's Own goes on first.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

My guess would be that Mandarins won 2 of 3 the captions (GE and Visual), therefore they got to go second.

Somebody posted somewhere that a coin was flipped and Seattle lost, so they're on first.
