Subject: Really?

Totally fine to watch game, but at least make an announcement so all dancers aren't waiting for over an hour and a half because judges want to watch the game. Totally unfair to the dancers. Just let the dancers know....the announcement was made that the judges would arrive right at the end of the game....ironic? In poor taste for the organizers and the adjudicators. Just make an announcement so the dancers aren't left waiting and wondering why the stage isn't starting!

Yes it was an extraordinary wait beyond the posted start time. They were doing great on time through morning until this. I would have thought boys would have started on time since they generally all recall.

Whilst complaining…
And I have to say those Cashel Academy students are some rude ones, waving their arms up front in front of the stage and crowd while their dancer is dancing, walking in front and standing in front of seated spectators, and even skipping 15-20 adults in the coffee line with no consideration. No shame with that group.

Some of those judges were sitting for many hours and didn’t get up to use the restroom. They also were waiting for other comps to finish so they can move judges to other stages as well as give them
Breaks.
They deserve a break, especially a brain one.
And If I’m Not mistaken , this thing only happens every few years and is kind of a big deal to make it to. And if I’m a betting person, I bet there are most likely laws that say they need to take a break from working , especially if it’s long hours.

They deserve a break. You go sit for hours on end, not get up, and then poof your team is on. How would you like it if I came to your work and demanded they make you work constantly, and if you took a cigarette break or called someone during your break I would get the vapors?
I’m betting your kid didn’t do well and you are blaming them.
It only happens every 4 years, and this year it was special circumstances that it happened to fall on the day your precious Angel danced.
My kid danced the same day, and guess what it didn’t bother me.

[> Honestly I just wish they'd announce stuff. I'd rather know what is going on and when to be back. It's nice to be able to grab food or pee without worrying about missing something -- fair, 14:35:22 11/29/22 Tue (177.sub-174-210-226.myvzw.com/174.210.226.177)

Don't care about a delay if my time is also valued. If they were to say back at 3 pm. Great I can feed my kids and go rest but just sitting and waiting for a recall or judge is silly.
