Yeah, what kind of bogus ranking is this anyway?  😉

I’m teasing of course. Just pointing out how truly difficult it is to get band rankings in an order that makes sense to everyone. Sorta like GN was this weekend. Hebron won Prelims, took 4th in Semi’s and moved up to 3rd in finals. Does that mean the judges thought their placement was wrong 2 of the 3 times they judged them?  And if so, which of the 3 placements they took in GN is the “correct” placement?  Just something to think about….

My hypothesis is that because there are so many characteristics to consider when judging a performance, different judges will pick up on different things, leading to a shift in the scores and placements. I also think that in prelims, judges place performances based on their first impression of it, then do a more in depth comparison in finals, simply because it’s easier to do that with fewer bands. If that makes sense
