Yes. If you look back at my post, I specifically bolded that part of your quote and that was primarily what I was responding to. I'm very intentional with my posts. As for the other stuff I said, I still stand by what I said about being proportionally positive and negative. It's simply more flattering and productive.
Not if theres nothing coming from her to be postitive about. Confirmed with more directors also. She should not be judging and hopefully will not be in the future. Of course this has been brought up about her every year and nothing has changed, but now I think everyone will react.
I hope Chris Pratt comes back though, just dont bring Grosse Pointe lol (Or bring Grosse Pointe and don't judge, i remember them back in the day and LOVED them. Andy Haines at his finest!)
Im WRONG cause theres one?

PS. I understand what you did not like about my comment about her being from north carolina and it not having show choir. I dont necessarily like it either and I get its inaccuracy. But that was not the point being made.
You sir are wrong. There is show choir in North Carolina and one might be competing at FAME Chicago. And in general, there probably has been a competition of some sort that has just flown under the radar. For example, Georgia has had show choir competitions, but we don't always get the information thus it isn't always posted on the site. Another example, Arizona is a pretty isolated show choir state, but there are just a few groups in the state, one of which just qualified for FAME Nationals. Being biased against states isn't really fair. And being from a "show choir state" should be no indicator of how good or qualified a person would be at judging.
Even if there was a different judging panel, I would expect Center Grove to win Grand Champion, because they really are that good. In addition, you used over 50 words being critical and negative towards the judging panel and only 4 words praising a judge. Perhaps you should consider making it more proportional in the future.
And in terms of not being able to edit, I'm not a tech person at all, but I know that Internet Explorer usually doesn't allow it, but Firefox and Chrome are fine from my experiences. If you have continued problems, you can post about it in the feedback section or something.
Im WRONG cause theres one? My friend in Southern Pines NC started a show choir, but they arent anywhere near capable of even competing yet, Im actually going there to choreograph soon, so oooOOOooo you knew of one, well theres two if not more. And they arent isolated, sure VA and NC are big states, but its not that far of a drive, I use to go down there all the time, Ill be in NC all of April and May for a show.
I did expand but even with Firefox the edit didnt work. Her OPINIONs are ridiculous. Ive sat and listened and looked at her scores of multiple groups and they are crazy, year after year. I'm not sure what she scored Center Grove, nor do I care, It's her comments and score sheets not lining up at all. Say a choirs Intonation is amazing and choreography is sloppy. She gives low scores throughout. If you don't like a show, you don't like a show, take it out on the ten points that say Song Selections/Varitations of Styles. But again.... if the show has variating styles should it be destroyed just cause you dont like a song?
And yes, Center Grove may have won regardless, but the undeniably talented Chris Pratt shouldnt have been judging (And I liked alot of the comments I'm hearing from him btw). It just looks bad, they knew when doing it that it looked bad. The director at Manchester (Robyn) knows I love her and shes a family friend, but people were not happy about the descision.
Chris Pratt - Director at Center Grove until he just recently let and took the job at Grosse Pointe South. Whos opinion I respect, but in this case frown at because he simply should not have been judging this year. I'll vocalize it hear for everyone who can not.
Annette Layman - THE SAME GIRL I CALL OUT EVERY YEAR WHO HAS HORRIBLE OPINIONS AND KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT SHOW CHOIR. Shes from NORTH CAROLINA. Theres no show choir in North Carolina.
Ron Hellums - Great Guy, from Rivars.
