CTJBandPops Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 So, three days in a row now Gogogo, Alamo and ctjrocks post very close together and all downvote Lost and Found. If one were prone to suspicion... throw TKE123 to that list - while it is a game - I saw the same as they trashed the CTJ programs in earlier events like this - always promoting the Reagan shows or downgrading the CTJ shows once they were out it all comes out on the field - I have little time for children using grandmas email to create shadow accounts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeanderMomma Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 We should be very careful of accusations without proof. While I do think a couple of the accounts COULD be fake, I’m not at all ready to state that as fact. I think it’s really (mostly) just a case of band kids/folks who are exuberant about their program and they are just focusing on eliminating the others, one band at a time. Perfectly acceptable way to play the game, even if it does rub us the wrong way when it’s our school affiliation being targeted (myself included). Another thing to consider is that many of the folks voting are too shy to regularly comment on threads, but they are willing to participate in the game because it doesn’t require a response. I want to encourage those folks to continue voting and to hopefully gain the confidence to engage in the discussions here. After all, that’s really what this forum is for.

Popular Post TWHSParent Posted May 21, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 My way of trying to keep things mostly civil is to vote one up and one down on the same band (not all my votes have been that way, of course) based on my personal enjoyment of the shows. Eventually this breaks down, but now that I no longer have a kid in band my perspective will be different. So my favorites for the bands that are 3 time finalists: Flower Mound - Leonardo's Dream Hebron - Sculpt Claudia Taylor Johnson - Forest thru the trees Vandegrift - Symphony of Silence Hendrickson - 3D (already eliminated....) Marcus - PrODDigy Leander - The 4th Dimension Ronald Reagan - Loop Keller - Change is the Only Constant The Woodlands - On the Waterfront Interesting that 10 bands have made finals these last 3 years. I hadn't really put that together until just now. Cedar Park and Cedar Ridge have made finals twice each. Cypress Falls, Vista Ridge, Winston Churchill, James Bowie, Avon, LD Bell, Westlake, and Round Rock have 1 appearance each. Anyway, I'm trying to take a more impersonal view on this. Of course, I have my grumbles (no way did Nine Lives deserve to score higher than Timebenders! And where the heck did Dobyns Bennett come from? Isn't Paradisium a bacteria? - I Joke! - plus, why did we have to follow Castle after that very emotional and sad field interview? Really started the overall show on such a depressing note that it took most of our show for the crowd to get back into the swing of the contest). But I'm trying to keep that out of my thinking on this thread (note I didn't give my grumbles for San Antonio!). OK, I rambled here. Apologies to all for that, but I'll post it anyway....

Ha ha, no apologies needed. and Oh, don't get me started on Castle! I cried so much just watching it on Flo Marching! And that tribute show to Sophie...and the angel wrapping her wings around Sophie's boyfriend. And the music. Goodness, I was a complete basketcase sitting on my couch just a sobbing mess. I can't imagine a band having to follow that. I never thought of that!!!! I pray that nothing similar happens at Grand Nats this fall. We all fell a bit in love with Sophie that week as we got to hear her mesmerising voice three times in competition. Such an amazing show they had, too. And it was their first time to make GN finals. So many emotions! And then for her to be killed just a few hours later with her daddy and grandmother. Goodness, that was tough. gregorydf01, CTJBandPops and TWHSParent 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post gregorydf01 Posted May 21, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 I am sorry for making the post about repeat negative votes and apologize to all for doing so. My beautiful wife of many great years told me not to and I should have listened. Another lesson for me and another opportunity to feel dumb. Thanks to LeanderMomma and TWHSParent for being the adults here and working to get things back on track. Love what both of you do here and the contributions to making this a great site!

josephbandfan Posted May 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Glad things are starting to look brighter around here Something I've also been doing is going back and rewatching shows, especially the ones that I was not as familiar with and I noticed a lot of different details that I hadn't seen before. It's becoming difficult for me to make any decisions. TWHSParent and Garchomp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's becoming difficult for me to make any decisions. Absolutely. All the shows are great. They have to be in order to have made finals at San Antonio. Certainly the last 2 years it has been tougher to make finals at San Antonio than at Grand Nationals. Even 3 years ago was pretty close to breakeven.
