Dropped; Marvin Ridge HS, NC (Open) It's unfortunate, but probably the best decision under the circumstances. |

cybrunette - Are we getting close to having full schedules posted for Guard and Percussion for Dayton? I'm going to assume later this week?... Last year it dropped 3 weeks before & we're in the window right now. I'm always checking! |

cybrunette - Are we getting close to having full schedules posted for Guard and Percussion for Dayton? Guard always comes first obviously due to it being a week earlier. Schedules can’t get posted until all regionals are completed to account for seeding and reclassifications, so guard should be posted any day now. Percussion and winds will probably be the end of this week or early next week. |

Does the prelim order mean anything or just random draw?
Thanks!

• Classes will be seeded in “tournament-style” rounds using their most recent Regional score increased by 1.5 points each week of the regional calendar. The score used for championship seeding will be the higher preliminary, semi-final, or finals score of their last Regional appearance. 34 • The resulting “standings list” will be used to assign groups to their round. Color Guards with identical scores will be assigned to the same round. • Once placed into a round, Color Guards will be divided into two groups according to ranking (highest ranking, next highest ranking, etc.) Color guards will random draw for performance order within their group with the highest-ranking Color Guards in that group performing in the second half. • All color guards with potential scheduling conflicts must notify the WGI office using the Championships Scheduling Conflict Form by March 1. 8.2.4 Color Guard World Championship Semi-Finals
Total Entries in Preliminaries Number to Semi-finals 30 or less 20 31-50 24 51-80 36 81 and above 56 • All classes will have Semi-finals. • If a single panel of judges adjudicates a Preliminary contest for an entire class, even at multiple sites, then a single panel of judges will be used in the Semi-final. • If Preliminary contests are held at multiple sites and judged by different panels, Semi-finals will be a double panel of judges consisting of both panels from each preliminary site. • The highest scoring groups will advance to Semi-finals, regardless of the round in which they competed. In the case of multiple preliminary contest sites, an equal number of groups from each contest site will be taken to make the total number of Semi-finalists. • After preliminaries are completed, A Class Semi-finalists will be seeded in the same method as the Preliminary rounds. Color guards will be ranked based on their Preliminary score and placed in rounds with the highest scoring Semi-finalist in the last round. Once all color guards are place in rounds, they will be drawn randomly in two groups to determine the performance order. • Open and World Classes Semi-finalists will perform in reverse order of Preliminary score with the highest score performing last. Should any Open or World Class Semi-finals have more than twenty-four (24) color guards, they will be seeded in the same manner as their preliminary rounds using their preliminary score and placed in rounds with the highest scoring Semi-finalist in the last round. • All World Class Semi-finals performances will be in same location chosen for Finals. 8.2.5 Color Guard World Championship Finals
Total in Semi-finals Number to Finals 55 or less 15 56 or more 20 • All classes will have Finals. • Performance order for all Finals contests will be reverse order of scores from Semi-finals regardless of rounds. |

8.2.4 Color Guard World Championship Semi-Finals
Total Entries in Preliminaries Number to Semi-finals 30 or less 20 31-50 24 51-80 36 81 and above 56 I was thinking how much of a shame it was that a few SO groups recently dropped out, as it brought the total number down to 48 and thus only 24 semi-finalists vs. 36. But looking at the semi-finals schedule, it looks like they have spots scheduled for ... 33? I'm confused. Also, the prelims rounds are split 9/9/ 7/11/12. Interesting. |

This is just a guess, but maybe that semi-finals placeholder schedule was generated more than a week ago? There were 51 SO guards before 3 dropped this week which would've given them the 51-80 (36) range boost |

Just noticed Ichigo Ichie, Japan dropped from IO to IA & it wasn't reflected in the old 'current entries' page WGI had. Wanted to point that out since I feel like that's an exciting must watch!

Just a fun fact, "Ichigo Ichie" means "once in a lifetime" in Japanese. Cool name for a program I had the hardest time searching for this group when they appeared on the lists because they call themselves 15Ichie, which as one could imagine, is also Ichigo Ichie. Disappointing to see them to drop to IA but always pulling for them still. |

Disappointing to see them to drop to IA but always pulling for them still. I love when international groups make their way to Dayton! Sensation Performance Ensemble is performing in IW in Dayton for what I believe is the first time (they moved up in The Netherlands in ~2020). Their last appearance in IO finals in 2019 was absolutely stunning, coming back from something like 7th in prelims all the way to a well-deserved medal in finals. Highly recommend checking them out for anyone who hasn't seen them. The 2017 video from Dayton isn't online, but that year is probably my favorite of theirs. The ending moments and flag feature were incredible. 2019 - 2017 - |

Looking forward to seeing them! |

The Japanese love their puns |

Question for everyone. When I start posting scores & schedules for both semis & finals, would you like everything all together in the OP to just have in one place or rather have me post like I did last year in the most current page?

Say less! Just to share my thoughts out loud for those wondering, I'll prioritize the OP since that'll be an easy single scroll & update the rest on whatever page they're on immediately after. |

Question for anyone who's seen shows this year: what groups/shows are not worth missing on Thursday, especially those with iffy chances of advancing to (semi)finals?
Maybe the show is deeply emotional or existential.
Maybe there's an unforgettable moment/event.
Maybe it features a style of dance/equipment/soundtrack that we rarely see.
Maybe the group is from unbelievably far away.
Maybe they only have five members.
Maybe half of them are in eighth grade and there's no seniors.
What shows should we Not Miss?
(I can't watch on Saturday, and I'll watch World Class Semis and A Class Finals on Friday. So Thursday is my only chance to catch any World groups that get preliminated, any A groups that miss finals, and any Open groups, period.)

I'll go by whichever post, either yours or WoodlandsMom4ever, gets more likes by tomorrow night. So whoever is reading this don't be shy & make sure to vote! If threads separated by class wins, I'll just link this thread & keep the schedules & scores here. If threads are separated by rounds, I'll post scores & schedules in those related threads. Does that sound like a good idea? |
