My High School band got 7th at DivI Prelims, so I'm happy. My drum corps in DivII finally broke 80, but they didn't make semis :[ Better luck next season.
On the plus side, my High School band making Semis gives me a reputation point for next season I think. That means an easier time hiring higher-level staff

I found out that Prelims is Semi-Finals. Top 10 from each division make Finals, which has been moved to Sunday instead of Saturday.
Ministry of Silence performed very well in prelims. Our score rocketed from a 72.78 at our last show on Saturday up to a 77.61 in Prelims. We were 18th out of 63 in Division III, and 48th out of 180 in all of FMB. Our music score of 27.03 was the high music score for ALL OF FMB PRELIMS (all divisions). Awesome!
If we had been in Division I, we would have placed 9th and been on our way to Finals. Maybe next year.
