Lets get some predictions after Prospect finishes up. Always interesting to see opinions solely based on half of the day, then put them next to the actual final results.
I completely agree. I just don't think mocking people or calling their thoughts arrogant is in the spirit of fun discussion anymore.
To be fair, any statement declaring a group "the undisputed best in the country" in a certain area is likely to be met with a little resistance and I can see how someone would interpret such a comment as arrogant. Then again, we have a rating system and the masses have expressed their dislike for that particular reaction. Maybe I should make an option for users to not see any posts with a certain number of dislikes so you can choose just to skip whatever the majority has deemed not productive to the conversation? I have a feeling most people would want to see what people said anyway.
Crew does a good job of keeping things clean here (ie, no profanity, no threats, etc.), but I have always been strongly in favor of users being able to speak their minds as long as it's not destructive. At least there's someone looking out for the well-being of the students involved here - that's a lot better than Facebook or Twitter (or YouTube!!), for example. We don't all agree on everything, but through discussion we can grow and learn together and I think a lot of good has come from conversations had here. Just ignore the haters.
Anywhoo... back to your regularly scheduled discussion about the madness that is Wheaton!
The point of the forums is to discuss. If we all just kept our opinions to ourselves, there wouldn't be much to read and the site wouldn't be very fun!
I also enjoy seeing what people think is "good." This is such a subjective activity, but some people certainly are quite sure about some things.

We all have our opinions, but why not at least see what the judges have to say about it?

It's not a matter of "competing" it's a matter of good vocal technique and I think many people confuse "good" with loud. Of course this is an old topic of discussion that should not be discussed here.
I agree!!!! I wouldn't say that their vocals are undefeatable--I would definitely consider some of their vowels need to be taller and rounder. Some of them are really spread. Actually, in my opinion, Clinton's vocals are extremely close to Waubonsie's as far as scoring. Clinton has an incredibly mature sound (and lots of vibrato). Do I think Waubonsie will get BV? Yes. But I think it is extremely close between several of the groups here.
**Don't judge me! I'm watching the live feed at home.
Let's just wait and see what the judges decide. There are enough quality choirs with amazing vocals at this competition that we don't need to speculate whether or not they have amazing vocals. If they get their 4th straight "best vocals" caption this season, they're doing something right. Loud or no. If not, then, sure, they have room to improve. Loud doesn't equal good or bad. And I for one am ready to trust the judges (especially these judges) to know that.

Yes Waubonsie sings very loud but they do it the right way and they really excel in all facets of vocals in high school show choir
I believe he is pretty accurate as far as vocals go this is about as good as they get. Who have your heard that you would say would compete with those vocals?
