And Southlake Carroll lost a tie to make state from area B. Both bands going to Grand Nationals. Coincidence? I think not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFNDOWBFAN Posted October 30, 2022 Report Share Posted October 30, 2022 5 of 6 state spots coming from block 2 of finals is interesting (granted, the big 3 were there). The finals were definitely loaded. Looking at prelim scores is always interesting to see the discrepancy of how different judges see ands different ways. Proud of how far OWB bent with a generally young band. Would love to see their numbers grow the next two years and see where things for in 2024. Good luck to the 6 moving on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mteggatz Posted October 30, 2022 Report Share Posted October 30, 2022 I just want to shout out Wylie East! The were 7th in prelims so they knew they had to have a great run to move up, and had to play in finals AFTER Flo Mo and Hebron. No pressure there!

Whoever had 3 judges rank them higher than the other wins the tiebreaker and is placed higher.  In McKinney Boyd’s case, judges 1, 3, and 4 placed them higher than prosper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReveriesOp24 Posted October 30, 2022 Report Share Posted October 30, 2022 Prosper and Sachse were robbed  Even though Prosper isn't going to state, I'm still rooting for them at Grand Nationals. #TeamTexas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snares Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Just took a look at results (I need to go look at area H next, I didn't even check results because I assumed Vandy would win but holy cow Vista Ridge!), and man does my heart hurt for Prosper. The tough thing about UIL competitions is that (unless retreat procedure has changed in the last year) because they don't announce actual scores you never really know how close or far you were from qualifying. But then to have to go look at those scores right after results are announced must be so frustrating to see that you were right there and just barely missed it. I am also absolutely shocked at the gaps between Marcus, FloMo, and Hebron. Shocked not meaning I disagree (I wasn't there and am still yet to see Hebron), but shocked a just how far ahead the judges seemed to think Hebron was. I could literally never imagine having to judge 3 absolutely incredible bands like that, but those gaps in the numbers in the subcaptions is something that I just don't think I've seen in the last decade or so from this area.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Culper Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Scores are really pretty irrelevant. They are a tool. The ordinals tell you everything you need to know about how close something was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ordinals tell you everything you need to know about how close something was. Normally I would completely agree, and I didn't really do a good job of clarifying when I meant ordinals vs scores in my last comment. But I think at least to an extent, at UIL the scores are usually just arbitrary numbers with equidistant gaps between each band because the judges seem to basically just rank them in ordinals and give them a score from there (that's probably not what they do, but at least it's what it seems, sort of like how percussion is always judged in DCI), but the scores across the board with that big of a gap I think is at least worth noting.
