#106904 - 04/03/06 06:51 PM Pre-season Information
DLWebmaestro Registered: 04/25/00 Loc: Drumlines.org Server	The 2006 Drumlines.org Fantasy Drum Corps season is in the works! I'm setting everything up behind the scenes and will be opening registration in about a month or so. Below is a link to a list of corps from last year and their division seedings for this year if they field a competing corps. *Edit* But keep in mind, if a fantasy corps from last season folds, everyone below them moves up a spot. http://www.drumlines.org/dlofdc/files/2k6Seedings.htm Just as last year, new corps registering this year will fill in starting at the highest seed in the last division available (Division 4 - Seed 09 if everyone from last year fields a competing corps). There will be an unlimited amount of divisions. If Division 4 fills (maximum of 25 corps per division) a Division 5 will be created, and so on. *Edit* Division advancement of your fantasy corps from season to season is a real possibility. If your fantasy corps competes in Division 4 this season, and places in the top 5 in Division 4, your fantasy corps is guaranteed a spot in at least Division 3 for 2007's season. Theoretically, a Division 4 fantasy corps can make Division 1 in their 4th season, maybe even as soon as 2nd season if enough fantasy corps above them don't return. Finally, I have put together this year's caption chart, so you may start going over it and formulating strategies. If you have no clue what a caption chart is, don't worry - we'll explain it in detail a little later. http://www.drumlines.org/dlofdc/files/captions.htm Blue Stars' caption scores were obtained by subtracting 20% from their final caption scores from 2005.

DLWebmaestro Registered: 04/25/00 Loc: Drumlines.org Server	Vince brought up a good point. Remember, you don't have to be around during the season to participate. You just have to be around to register and pick your schedule and captions. After that, you can set your fantasy corps on cruise control if you so wish. Of course, this isn't as fun as being around during the season, but it is possible nonetheless, and still rewarding. In fact, we have a few fantasy corps whose directors marched DCI last summer. _________________________ DLWEBMAESTRO Performing Great Mills HS: '92-'96 -> Front Ensemble, Plates, Snare \| Baltimore Ravens: '00-'03 -> Snare Teaching Thomas Stone HS: '97-'99 \| Patuxent HS: '99 This is why I cannot answer your sheet music access question right away.

After a fairly productive 2005 season, we plan to manage the corps more effectively and show what we're made of. Best of luck to everyone. -Zach _________________________ Zach Harston harston.zach @ yahoo.com (281) 723-3580 OASAASLLS

DLWebmaestro Registered: 04/25/00 Loc: Drumlines.org Server	I have updated the page that shows all registered fantasy corps to include information pertaining to their schedule and caption status. http://www.drumlines.org/dlofdc/showreged.fdc This is also linked from the DLOFDC sidebar. If you have been assigned a division, you will notice either a green 27 or a lesser, red number in your fantasy corps' row. If your number is red, it means you can add more competitions to your schedule and are encouraged to do so. If your number is a red 0, you are risking your fantasy corps' future as is detailed in the handbook. There is also a captions row which states whether or not the fantasy corps has picked captions. If you have a green YES, you are good to go. If you have a red NO, then hurry up and pick those captions already! If you don't do so by the deadline, you're risking your fantasy corps' future! _________________________ DLWEBMAESTRO Performing Great Mills HS: '92-'96 -> Front Ensemble, Plates, Snare \| Baltimore Ravens: '00-'03 -> Snare Teaching Thomas Stone HS: '97-'99 \| Patuxent HS: '99 This is why I cannot answer your sheet music access question right away.

DLWebmaestro Registered: 04/25/00 Loc: Drumlines.org Server	It appears as though the caption grading was way too lenient, so I have made it stricter. Some of you may have noticed a grade drop. I did this so I wouldn't be doing a disservice to all you new directors out there. Do remember, though, that these grades are just loose guidelines and do not necessarily reflect how you will do this season. _________________________ DLWEBMAESTRO Performing Great Mills HS: '92-'96 -> Front Ensemble, Plates, Snare \| Baltimore Ravens: '00-'03 -> Snare Teaching Thomas Stone HS: '97-'99 \| Patuxent HS: '99 This is why I cannot answer your sheet music access question right away.

Division 2 directors have a small 89,259,851,322 possible combination choices. Division 3 and on down have a measely 80,902,607,598 possible choices. It's not hard to pick a solid "A" grade selection of captions. Possible choices of what? Combinations of captions that will produce an A grade? Combinations of captions that will use all allotted points? Or combinations of captions period? Be careful man, I just took the AP Statistics test a few days ago and I got over 100% on the mock AP... _________________________ No longer much of a QueenOfQuints; currently working to MasterTheMarimba!

These are the possible combinations of 8 captions totalling less than or equal to 140 caption points (Div 1.), 125 caption points (Div 2), and 120 caption points (the rest). I used a nested for loop in C to determine this and it took quite a few minutes to get all of those calculations . _________________________ -Kevin Instructor/Tech Northern HS - Owings, MD \| Winter '03 - Fall '04 Patuxent HS - Lusby, MD \| Fall '06 Huntingtown HS - Huntingtown, MD \| Fall '07 Project PIW - Pittsburgh, PA \| '05 - Cymbals Promote Tolerance\|Go Redskins!

QueenOfQuints Registered: 02/10/05 Loc:	Then this probably isn't true: Quote: It's not hard to pick a winning combination... It's not hard to pick a solid "A" grade selection of captions. How many of these practically infinite combinations are A grade? Probably far, far, far less, since you're only likely to get an A grade using most or all of your points in the first place, especially Div III and lower! _________________________ No longer much of a QueenOfQuints; currently working to MasterTheMarimba!

DLWebmaestro Registered: 04/25/00 Loc: Drumlines.org Server	Our first week of registration is in the books and I'm pleased to announce that we have 90 registered fantasy corps so far! This is enough for 4 divisions! How many divisions will we end up with? The sky's the limit! Twenty-one of our Division-1-seeded fantasy corps have registered thus far, while we have 11 each from Divisions 2 and 3 and just 1 from Division 4. This is a reminder that veteran fantasy corps who have yet to register (39 in all) that Thursday the 25th is their last day to register their fantasy corps without loosing their seeding. If they register after that date they will be sent to the back of the line and will fill in the divisions with all the new fantasy corps. It is very important that all fantasy corps directors pick their captions. We advise you do so by the end of the month to avoid the possibility of us folding your fantasy corps, as there are talks underway to possibly change the repercussions of ignored fantasy corps. Having fantasy corps with active directors makes it more fun for everyone. Nobody wants to compete against a shell of a fantasy corps. On the same note, we would like to remind all registered veterans to please set up your schedule with a full 27 shows. The sooner you get this done, the more choices you have as shows are filling fast! _________________________ DLWEBMAESTRO Performing Great Mills HS: '92-'96 -> Front Ensemble, Plates, Snare \| Baltimore Ravens: '00-'03 -> Snare Teaching Thomas Stone HS: '97-'99 \| Patuxent HS: '99 This is why I cannot answer your sheet music access question right away.

DLWebmaestro Registered: 04/25/00 Loc: Drumlines.org Server	As quoted from the handbook, which I spent a lot of time on putting together: Quote: Making your schedule realistic is not mandatory... I strongly encourage everyone to sign up for 27 shows. The more competition, the better -- and there really is no reason why you can't sign up for 27. _________________________ DLWEBMAESTRO Performing Great Mills HS: '92-'96 -> Front Ensemble, Plates, Snare \| Baltimore Ravens: '00-'03 -> Snare Teaching Thomas Stone HS: '97-'99 \| Patuxent HS: '99 This is why I cannot answer your sheet music access question right away.
