Form, technique, reputation.
Which would completely ignore the fact that the set is repetitive, not complex and didn't really bring anything new that we haven't seen from Empire. And it would still fall in the traditional aspect of the judging rubric.

Yes if you replaced the entire team with different dancers they may have placed higher. However, that is not a great argument to make.

And you completely ignore the fact that the set had more x factors than any other set, save maybe sgpd's.


SGPD would do it with a different take, and it would have a totally different feel than when the empire dancers do it. I think it's a fun hypo/argument for this thread, and therefore its a great argument to make.

What X factor that we haven't already seen?

you're not getting my point...and you're keeping all facts the same. I'll rephrase. IF no one ever saw empire dance ever, and sgpd instead did this set, based on their execution, the x factors, and the form, they would win.


But if all things were the way they were in reality (which is too rigid) i guess they only MIGHT win.


I hope this satisfies you. haha.

What I thought:

1. SGPD
2. NJ
3. PCBCA
4. VCU
5. Empire
6. APD
7. PANJ
8. Virsa

-with numbers 3-5 being very close.

Not because its Empire or anything, but care to tell us any of the other 559 marks that confused you/you could have read wrong?

Not because its annoying or anything, but care to tell us why you feel the need to be an arrogant ass to someone who asks a simple question? Or to 90% of the people on this forum for that matter?

The judging sheets literally have 560 different spaces for evaluation. Pashi made a mistake. Now on to the next one and the next one and the next one? Pashi's credibility as a judge will not change, neither will the scorings or overall 'placings'.

As far as you considering me being an arrogant ass to 90% of people on this forum, I thank you for giving me your input on the way I conduct myself on the forum and will try to be more conscientious of the way I approach others.

Lol she pointed out a mistake in the scoring sheet, which happens to be the only one of its kind. And no, she didn't read it incorrectly. No need to get defensive...the mistake is there. Not like it had a tremendous impact on Empire's placing. I don't think she was trying to question the judge's credibility.

I wasn't getting defensive yo, and I'm not trying to here, its just that its useless to bring up. That said I could have been softer in my approach. Maybe.
