rehmwa 2 #27 September 23, 2004 QuoteI'll argue with anyone No you won't. {Hey, if the cameraguy is now, per the rules, a 'teammember' why shouldn't he try to get the best angles for the moves? Seems that Block 12 is all about camera angle. And the teammember change is just recent, so everyone has the same amount of experience with that rule change as the leading world holder of more 8 way golds. SM1?} ...

rehmwa 2 #29 September 23, 2004 Majik too and CF sequential are finished. Only 8-way left. Edit: Kurt even had the video posted before the scores were in for round 10. How's that for service. Majik looked good. France looked real good too, like a machine grinding out points - it's very dark there, good cameramen to get the good angle for lighting so fast. ...

usskydiver 0 #34 September 24, 2004 I was speaking with Scott Rhodes last night and here are the highlights. While the camera is a member of the team, he/she is there for the judges (think back to the ground to air days). This also was a reason that most teams did not wear neon colors or red during the 8mm days (bleed), to make it easier on the judges. Scott also brought up spirit of the rules. Now I have not read them but understand the concept is the camera establishes him/her self over the team and remains in that relative position only until they are required to move. I'm not a camera guy and I can appreciate the adage "if you're not cheating, your not trying" followed by "if you get caught, you weren't trying hard enough" the fact is a cross is a cross and the top teams got busted. The only way to eliminate this argument is to pull zipper/star and replace it. Tim T. Team Paraclete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rehmwa 2 #36 September 24, 2004 I agree with you - I just like to debate things. Either take out 12, force the cog, or whatever. It seems to cause too much pain over the last couple. Thanks for the insight. I'm new at this and always looking for info. Oh, and mr. Wagner noted that the final US Sequential round of 13 was a new world record. But That's another forum. ...
