2016 Tryouts and Training Camp Spoilers and Spoiled Speculations

[Oranaiche]

I'm in it for the long haul since my normal bedtime is midnight to 1 am, and they damn well better announce by then. Getting tired of waiting.

Whoa. I could have done without watching Caila's solo clip again.  It's like a car accident.

I'm hoping Caila's entire solo was better than that clip. Only a couple seconds of underwhelming is better than an entire solo of underwhelming. I feel bad for her.

[Oklahomama]

Take it from this chubby girl. I wear black on black when I'm trying to hide these last 20 baby weight pounds. The fact that she's wearing long pants too is telling. She knows she's gained

[SusieG]

The info we dont have is how well all the girls did during the season (unless you live in dfw and have been to a few games, which some posters have...) wonder how caila is during games, also kat and simone.

[cherryblossom]

As they would say  You're killing me Smalls!!!  Bring it on!  I wonder if they will wait till photo to release an official announcement

[SopranoKris]

I went out to a restaurant and came back. Still no announcement? The suspense is killing me! 

[ChlcGirl]

Nope but conspiracy theories are abounding!!!

[DCCFanInKy]

Oooook....for some reason the last several times I've tried to post here it's tried to quote something upthread I didin't even select...

 

To make this post "on topic"...wonder if they have food for the girls or if they bring their own or are allowed to order in (pizza, chinese etc).  Wonder if My Fit Foods provides food for Auditions?

I don't have twitter-- so I have 24 other windows open with DCC twitter and all 23 vets. If someone updates twitter there is a little (1) in the title bar. My 5 year old Dell laptop is going to explode! 

[SusieG]

i'll tell you one thing, if one of my fave vets gets cut and auto friggin' amy makes TC, i'm going to lose my sh*t.

They have one of the concessions stands open with healthy options!

Not sure how old my laptop is but it gets crabby if I have more than one or two windows in Google Chrome open and I'm usually always listening to something on iTunes

[sleepyjean]

game on!

[Harrythecat]

Anyone recognize the music Calia's solo is too?  Any God has a plan type lyrics?

[2134.dancer]

its time!!!

ahhhhh! DJ EJ back at it again with the inside scoop.

LETS DO THIS!!

[cherryblossom]

Why doesn't he tweet the names in real time???

Edited May 22, 2016 by cherryblossom
Can;t figure out how to spell tweet!

[Harrythecat]

You would think that they could automate the judges scoring....pageants do it.....weird they have stuck with the same process.  Wonder if these first time judges are creating the delay?  

[Kaedee]

Woohoo!

[cherryblossom]

Stream it without sound and we could get someone to lip read

[DCCFanInKy]

Grrrr anybody know offhand what EJ's twitter handle is? I can't get twitter to cooperate (I think I'm already following him)

 

ETA - I found him https://twitter.com/itsDJEJ

Found answer

[dccfan37]

Yeah I wish they were live tweeting or snap chatting as they called the names!!!

[Beana8]

DJEJ just posted on Instagram that they are announcing the finalists as we speak!

But it's not a scientific process. Like a couple years ago when Danielle was going to be cut but Kelli and Charlotte decided to take her anyway.

[DCCFanInKy]

GRRR why does Charlotte always wear those SHORT dresses?  And BTW....did I see her daughter in a pic earlier possibly with Sam/Kelli, Cassie/Judy?

[cherryblossom]

They could consult it for a way to make this day more user friendly for those of us hanging on every word on this blog!!  We could streamline it.  Are any twitter accounts disabled?

[sleepyjean]

Their judging process has always seemed cumbersome to me. Even with the open call. If instead of using no/maybe/yes, they went with numerical scores like 1/3/5, they could be tallying the scores as they go along and they'd only have to discuss the girls on the margins.

I don't think Kelli would be willing to go with numerical scoring for finals because regardless of the scores, she and Charlotte have the last say. They'd be overriding the rest of the judges' scores left and right.

[Kaedee]

I didn't see that on Instagram. Does he have 2 handles?

[SopranoKris]

Can't wait to see the TCC photo!!!!

I feel star struck! Ha

That's the one I follow.... Wonder why it's not posting. :(

I feel like it'll take 15-20 min or more to announce 40+ names...especially if CMT wants a redo on something

Maybe Eric's been sworn to secrecy till the TCC photo?

phew...unfollowed 2 accts on twitter and it's moving slow enough for me to watch for DCC activity LOL

[Kaedee]

Maybe ... damn it. :)

[sleepyjean]

The other thing I noticed is usually DJ EJ has 5,000 photos of him with various veterans while everyone is waiting. He didn't do any of that this time. Whoever mentioned upthread that maybe they put the kibosh on social media might be right. Wouldn't it be a hoot if they didn't post the training camp photo?

[cherryblossom]

My husband just shook his head when I took a bathroom break and told him about our chatter when waiting but he and our son know I love DCC and have watched since that 2 hr pilot years ago.  In fact this year for Christmas, our son got me a DCC Abby Bear!!

Hush!  Don't say that.  I don't want to wait until August to know :)

Even the retirees' accounts are still active. I assume, anyway, based on Victoria and Holly. Holly I could see as an allstar and keeping an account for that reason, but not victoria. I've always thought of her as "the invisible dcc."

[Kaedee]

CMT might have asked for total media/social media silence. Everyone knowing ahead of time means people not watching when the show airs; thus less ratings. Little do they know us! lol

Sometime btwn now and August I'm going to have to change local cable tv providers.  Comcast recently merged CMT into some kind of SPORTS Package for my area so I'll have to either get my Mom to give me her login credentials for her Cable Provider or switch to them...if Build A Bear Workshop had a DCC cheerleader uniform I'd already have a bear dressed like it

[Hummingbird24]

This has been very hush hush!! I'm going crazy!! I'm also ready to join the cheer squad and have the watch party :) 

[ChlcGirl]

I'm not saying one should do this but! There are ways to watch the show online without credentials.  Ahem.

Exactly!  Spoilers don't stop me from watching the show.  They formally announce the squad before the show airs anyway.  I like watching the show because I love seeing how hard everyone works to get on the squad. Knowing who made it in to TC before the show airs isn't going to stop me from watching it.

I don't know, but it's hella hard to concentrate on Algebra homework when a person has to keep switching between here, twitter and instagram.
