wait but the concept of tda vegas studios, tda orlando studios and radix nats studios all running for opus award is more akin to the election itself and not the electoral college. vegas is the republican candidate, orlando is the democratic candidate (based on their old curtain red/blue backdrop colours and the fact that orlando used to be new york) and radix nats is obviously third party candidate because low turnout in 2025 means they have no votes. they are also obviously third party candidate because people can go to tda + radix but never tda + tda. radix is the neutral, additional option that people on each tda side can also agree with, but typically will not prioritize over either tda (as of last year). in this essay i will prove
press play electoral college would only have 3 states. ex-tda vegas studios, ex-tda orlando studios, and ex-radix nats studios. electoral votes are based on the turnout at 2025 nats so in short the state of Radixistan gets fucked
I seriously donât understand studio owners having any say in Opus (which is a real thing if anyone hadnât seen that in the rulebook!) Like who is truly impartial on this? What if you hate a studio just because theyâre good and beat you at regionals etc?
intentionally sabotaging the studio who beat your team in lyrical small groups at starpower in 2013đ„°
What does everyone think Press Playâs Photo Booth thing will be? TDA has the big red chair, Radix had the black couch (I miss the couch, I see theyâve just replaced it with a chair.)
SOMEONE IN DANCE REDDIT SAID THAT PRESSPLAY IS âALLEGEDLYâ HAVING TUMBLR ACCOUNTS VOTE FOR OPUS INSTEAD OF STUDIO OWNERS. THIS IS THE FUNNIEST THING IVE SEEN ALL YEAR LMAOO
me committing voter fraud to vote for larkin in all 7 swing states â„ïž
Okay thatâs funny that another anon wrote in about Emerson VH. I have never rooted so hard for a kid Iâve never once met and I think itâs bc of the tiger Friday stuff lol.
i find it funny that they choose kids who donât wear tf and have clout vs kids that love tf
i didnât realize this but i canât believe emerson vh isnât a tiger cub :( i think sheâll do well at nationals this year and hopefully get it!! sheâs the cutest
I wonder about the science behind why thereâs so few entries for the ovation all star title. I was hoping there would be a lot more. On the other hand, Radixâs numbers have boosted like crazy.
