Popular Post J-Mike16 Posted September 1, 2023 Popular Post Posted September 1, 2023 Hey everyone!! It is September 1st, which means that our annual Prediction Game (if you call it a game lol) has now officially begun! If you would like to participate, feel free to head on over to the Predictions which is located between Forums Activity & Donate at the top of the page. As a returning Predictions Admin, I am honored to be able to help out again this year with the Predictions and if there are any mistakes or errors, please let me or Clarinot know about the issue, and we will fix it as soon as we can! On that note, I am going to be out of the country on Vacation from the 10th - 17th of September. I will not have access to internet so during that time, Clarinot will be the "main person" to go to. Hope yall are ready for some madness that we call Texas HS Marching Band Season! Gonna be fun predicting it this year lol! celesta, aer06 and KimR0328 3 Quote
J-Mike16 Posted September 4, 2023 Author Posted September 4, 2023 Added a few events that take place on the 23rd. Question for all, should we keep it to ONLY Texas contests or add in out of state contests that have Texas schools representing in them? Quote

I personally think that we should add contest that have Tx bands competing, such as BOA Las Cruces, however, it is a Texas bands website, but I don’t think people would care that much if at all 🤷♂️ J-Mike16 1 Quote
J-Mike16 Posted September 5, 2023 Author Posted September 5, 2023 Alright! I added events all through till the end of September. I will start adding more after I get back from vacation. When submitting an out of state contest, please know that it may or may not be approved. The lineup needs to be one where most people can recognize. Tubalord11 1 Quote
celesta Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 I believe we didn't do predictions for contests without a finals round last year, but we have a few USBands events that don't have finals on the predictions page. Will these events remain? Quote

Hey I just wanted to let you know that I recently made a prediction for the USBands Houston Regional but another school was added to the roster after I submitted it to be approved by yall. I also forgot to include the caption awards. Sorry about that. Would you be able to change this? The name of the school is Jordan High School by the way. Quote

Not entirely sure tho. I'm just assuming this because that's what's on the USBands Dallas Regional prediction page. Sorry this is my first time submitting a prediction, so I'm not really sure where is says what captions will be awarded. Quote

FormerWildcat Posted September 18, 2023 Posted September 18, 2023 Just did my predictions for all the DFW contests and BOA Austin. I have to say that the turnout so far has been phenomenal. As of now, there are 141 submissions for BOA Austin and 52 for the brand-new Melissa contest. Pretty impressive considering that it's the beginning of the season and there's almost a week to go. Also, I saw that about 20 new accounts were created over the weekend. That's gotta be some sort of record, right? Quote
abtwitch Posted September 19, 2023 Posted September 19, 2023 It looks like an outdated list was submitted for Golden Triangle Classic, I submitted the most updated one that was released with the schedule earlier today Quote

J-Mike16 Posted September 22, 2023 Author Posted September 22, 2023 Alrighty! I know this happened only a day before the contests, but please everyone make sure to go back and look at your predictions to see if you need/want to re-do some of them. We had several bands drop contests who appeared to be in many of yall's predictions. Sorry for just now saying something about it. Tubalord11 1 Quote
LostChoirGuy Posted September 23, 2023 Posted September 23, 2023 Whoops totally forgot to do predictions for tomorrow's contests. Looks like I won't be in the running this year 😅 Quote
