Has anyone ever noticed a correlation between their order and their score? If so, explain :)
 
Yes! just this past weekend at all levels all teams but 1 were placed in the order they performed. It was very strange and i didnt feel the results were correct at all.
 
Sometimes I think going later on can hurt you, because the judges are getting tired and when they watch you, they're like, "well i've seen THAT a million times today" and it doesn't really have an affect anymore.

But going on the same thing, you also think, wow ive seen that all day but they did amazing!!!!!

I think as a judge you score fairly accurate across an entire division. I dont think it is that hard. That being said, i've never judged a division of more then about 12 teams (which is difficult enough when they are evenly difficult). I couldn't imagine judging 50+ teams all in one shot.

Random question....I used to roller skate and sometimes we thought it looked like they were "saving room" for high scores at the end.....for example...can't give my highest score yet cuz Im not sure what's coming...do you think that happens?

Yes and no. I don't think most competitions give perfect scores unless there is a strict guideline on what you need for perfect. But you can't give a team a 9.9 out of a 10 without knowing what is ahead. If a team comes out later and blows every team out of the water, then what do you score them if other teams were almost perfect.

The example was given in the past of this. If CEA goes out and does a perfect stunt and they get scored a 9.9. Then Super Fantastic Allstars comes out next and does team double ups and some of the craziest stunts you've ever seen, then there is no room to reward them.

makes total sense...thanks
 
i really like to see everyone's opinions. i don't really HAVE one, on this, but now it's got me thinking. and i don't really want this to veer into another topic, but...

does this have anything to do why, at some 2 day comps, they reverse the order of the place you're in?
