MJN Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 In the late 90's/early 00's, I seem to remember scoring for captions being averaged over quaterfinals, semis, and finals. I didn't pay too much attention to it at the time. Did it only last one year? I'm curious what reactions were at the time, and why it was changed. I kind of like the idea of averaging the three shows and not basing what people remember as "top hornline" or "top drumline" etc. on what happened to be the last show of the year, especially if a corps had an off night at finals. Anyone??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJN Posted April 12, 2007 Author Share Posted April 12, 2007 They still average the scores over the three days. Thanks - Has it always been that way? I seem to remember something about "tournament scoring" - was there ever any difference?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drumcorpsbari Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I'm pretty sure that the caption awards are determined from average scores over the three nights, but the scores announced as placement scores are for that specific day and show only. someone can correct me if i am wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fourouttheforty Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I've heard something similar to averaging scores to determine Jim Ott/drum trophy/etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
