when they finally have a judging panel with some sort of consistent judging...

 

And note...im not saying this because spring did not make finals...in fact my sister even told me their performance this morning was not one of their better ones...

 

UIL has the most inconsistent judging known to man...and thats a fact.

It's not the judging panel. It's the scoring system. I hate the ranking thing. Using their scores is a more effective way of scoring the bands.

 

Geez there are some crazy rankings going on here...

 

Akins with a 2 and 21 in music.

Reagan 23 and 4 in music.

Rowlett with 28 and 5.

Spring with 20 and 8 in visual.

 

It just doesn't work.

Another thing to consider is the high number of outstanding bands this year. I imagine it's quite difficult to distinguish placements correctly for 31 amazing bands. In my opinion, the best system of judging at this level would be the tick system. However, the judges are all men, most likely age 60+, with huge guts. So they could be somewhat senile...

Absolutely correct. The UIL judging system stinks. This is not just people being sour (although there are those who just whine because they don't get what they want). Something needs to be done. The problem I see is that there is NO accountability for these guys. While every judge may be a great person, with a great program or reputation behind them, that still doesn't account for the completely off the wall rankings and scores they give. I just can't understand that since this has been happening for forever it seems, that nobody in the UIL office hasn't looked at these rankings and said "dang, that's so inconsistent... Oh Wow! It's just not happening at the state level, it's also happening at our area contests! Maybe we should come up with an effective system!" It just blows my mind...

 

EDIT:

 

I also think that hearing mulitple directors from different schools with great programs say "I've just stopped trying to figure out judging at the Area and State level..." That's just not acceptable...

Hmm, could someone give some reviews perhaps? I was nearly 100% sure Marcus would win music; the last time I saw them, it was incredibly clean and almost inhumanly style-filled. That is to say, when I heard htem performing, say, Thunderstorm or Overture to William Tell, I could hardly tell them apart from the level of full orchestras. I mean, it was truly amazing how much their music kicked ****. Perhaps I'm missing something?

Analogy:

 

NFL [Playoffs] : BOA

 

NCAA [bCS] : _____

 

 

:o

 

... yep, i said it.

 

-_-

OH NO YOU DIDN'T!!!

 

I don't like UIL. I just don't see how you don't reward difficulty. Someone with 120 pages of drill doing it well against someone with 50 pages who marches incredibly clean drill. Of course the 50 page band is going to look cleaner. It's sheer numbers. 120 > 50 = less clean drill. I don't understand.
