I disagree. You perform your best show regardless of how you placed in the day rounds. If you have your mentality your group will cheat themselves out of opportunities. Finals is a clean slate.

I believe he was arguing from the judge's perspective. You can't argue that knowing somebody placed first in daytimes will change your perception of them in finals...

but from the performer's standpoint, I totally agree with you. <: you can make it or break it in finals!

I sat in the last row right below the judges....tell me I'm wrong but it looked like they were doing the tallying of scores right behind us. How can one concentrate on such an important thing with all the distractions and lack of proper lighting ....no wonder all the scores were incorrect. This is definately not the way to run a proper competition.

Straight from Spencer Hughes:

"Benton tallied day round scores wrong - Jefferson won the day round by 2 points over ,"

Then he added..

"..We just got off stage after our best show ever."

kind of a major "whoops" there... I wonder how the day would have gone with /correct/ scores?

Text from Christopher Stolba about the recount:

"Sooo apparently the scores got screwed aroud and some groups possibly got other groups scores. Nothing they can do so all proceeds but sioux city is also now tied with lincoln southwest due to a judge not noticing it was ranked out of ten"


Looks like we might have found our biggest drama story of the 2010 season.

And there we have it... I'd be asking for a recount too after that.

Not sure that I blame them, as close as it is. I wonder if they had cause to suspect a discrepancy or if they're just hoping?

I've never heard of asking for a "recount" even when its close. Just kind of wondering.
