Errors DO happen, but I would never think they were intentional. Have seen competitor numbers transposed on the posters, 2nd & 3rd places flip-flopped, and DD was not announced as placing when she had. ALL were simply inadvertent mistakes by VOLUNTEERS and were corrected promptly when I politely drew their attention to it. -- For the love of the dance

[> [> The poster suffers from "SR Entitlement Syndrome". Too many dancers from the other regions come down to the SR and just expect that they will beat all these "yahoos" down in the "deep south". I know you state you are in the SR but Maryland is in the SR so those dancers probably do a lot of feiseanna in the MAR and MW too. I think even some of our more northern SR members expect that if they go to TX, LA, OK, or ARK they will be guaranteed 1sts. Sorry to burst your bubble but that just isn't always true. The problem wasn't with the tabulators, the SR, or cheating. The problem was with YOU on the DAY of this particular feis. Go home, practice and then try again. The SR has some great dancers and you will have to EARN it just like any other region. -- enc, Fri, Aug 24 2007, 17:46:03 [1]
