You know I got to thinking.... Us High School/College FMA players are going to have trouble playing the game while we are in school. We are going to lose about 800 points worth of rehearsal. I really hope that these circuits come into play next season, so we can put all the high school students into one circuit so it'll be fair for us. There are some people on here out of college that spends all 2,000 of their rehearsal points. Yeah this might get interesting!

Lol, I didn't even think of that... Especially when band camp gets started back up.

Well, since we don't have as much time, more than likely we will be placed in a lower division. :)

Thank God offseason is during my band camp woot woot.

@scooter lol glad I made your list

you will probably just be put into lower divisions. there are other ways to keep your progress going and not lose out on points

Yet another reason why I am so glad I'm not in school. :D

Yeah since I've started having two-a-days for band my groups have been suffering.

I'm just gonna update as I can during offseason (I have band camp next week) and take it from there. I am nervous though...

Yeah, since work started I've suffered majorly in points and what not. I can barely keep up, surprised I made Semi-finals with my groups. It's okay though, next season should be better. Since I won't be on as often, I'll be placed in a lower division, with people in the same time usage as me.

If you are in college, it might be a little easier. Just spend your energy during a break, or in between classes (If you have enough time, and can get to a computer that can connect to the internet. Laptops would make it easy (provided you can connect to wi-fi or something.)

This is true. I'm sure most of us college folk can find a bit of time every 4 hours.

Even if you can't... it's only a game. :)

That's also true. :P

Okay so being place in a lower division didn't help. I'm actually doing MUCH MUCH worse. All of my groups are at the bottom of Division. I only got on like 3 times during preseason and still got placed in Division II? Something doesn't seem right to me.

yeah and what's up with that one div III band who's like five points ahead of everyone else?

I have noticed that. Seems kinda odd...

I think if you don't play much during preseason and get put into div 3, but then start playing alot, you will have the advantage.

I haven't been able to rehearse my groups like I'd like, except the end of last season was my band camp, and the beginning of this season was the day before my 1st day of school this year.

i think alex said something about putting a competition in the middle of the season that would change your division based on your score...
