But why wouldn't the Sam's Club Invitational have that many 180's? Wasn't that the best of the best?
:boink:Someone is poking the bear.:-D

I can understand the argument about the number of good teams at a contest, I've cooked in a few of those. But why wouldn't the Sam's Club Invitational have that many 180's? Wasn't that the best of the best?
Well I guess I was sorta taking a poke... but in reality. The team that beat all the heat and humidity was a team that cooked under 2 Ez-Ups. Lets face it. We have all cooked in big time contests with a ton of talent, that everyone is taking seriously to win. Ultimately it comes down to the judging. I'd say they were very very generous that day. We don't ever see 180 in our region or a lot of other regions... I guess we all need to learn how to cook?
I dont think a 180 has or ever will happen in my area with the reg 4 cats. Local judges suck here.
Those teams are in other events, so shouldn't they have got 180 in other events if that is the case
As far as judges go I meant local as in here on the Island.Agree, well maybe not the judge coment though. Has there been a 180 in the Mid-Atlantic/NE in the 4 KCBS categories in the last 3-4 years? Not that I remember.
Then came the start at 6 nonsense and the 6 is average nonsense and now it's evolved back to a 7-8-9 system with mostly 8s and 9s.
The cooks all like getting 9s and are willing to ignore the problem when scores are high.
We don't see these scores on the east coast. There is a definite difference in the judging "approach" between the east coast and the middle of the country. Have these two judging pools been taught differently?

How is it possible that at a kcbs event in KS that there were 9 180 point results, how is that possible??? Let me know what you think!!!:heh:
Wow! That's amazing...180's (200's now for PNWBA) are few and far between up here in the left hand corner...there were two in one comp last year...and so far none this year (I think)...congrats to all that received them...must have been some killer Q that day...
An experienced judge who gives a 9 9 9 on the 1st piece and the second piece is better? Well its another 9 9 9. If each submission is on par or better then his first everyone gets a 9 9 9. I think you have a situation where the talent shocked the judges and blew up their baseline.
