OK guys I'm finally able to post the updated PEARL Cup standings this evening. Since I have missed so much I have to ask... what are the former names of the D2 line "The Precinct" slash "The Drumlins"? I must have them under a former name.
Same thing with "Bluemen"

PEARL Cup Standings, Week 4
Sorry for the absence guys! But here is the update.
DIVISION 1 COMPLETE
1) Ear Drummers (144 points)
2) Black Beat NZ (133 points)
3) Gasper Sticks (75 points)
4) Time Phase (55 points)
5) Pandora (36 points)
6) Drum Machine (32 points)
7) The Drum Circlers (31 points)
8) Harvey Wallbangers (29 points)
9) Aradia (14 points)
10) Duracell (5 points)
11) Plato's Drum (4 points)
12) Equilibrium (3 points)
13) -all other D1s- (0 points)

D1 Top 12
No PEARL groups are in the D1 top 12. Black Beat NZ is our closest at #14, about .8 points out. Four groups are in the top half of D1.

DIVISION 2 TOP TEN
1) Black Beat NZ B (141 points)
2) Pulse Percussion (119 points)
3) Chuck Norris' Triangle (109 points)
4) Hexstatic (95 points)
5) The Renegade Drumline (68 points)
6) William Penn Percussion Ensemble (57 points)
7) Spin Cycle Express (50 points)
8) Red Drumlins (44 points)
9) Easternwood (26 points)
10) Aviators (18 points)

D2 Top 12
-Hexstatic (#1)
-Black Beat NZ B (#2)
-Pulse Percussion (#3)
-Chuck Norris' Triangle (#8)
-Red Drumlins (aka The Precinct) (#10)
The second division in PEARL is STACKED. Hexstatic is looking at it's second consecutive D2 medal. Black Beat NZ B's strategy of accepting relegation has most certainly paid off. Pulse Percussion is a full point ahead of 4th place. Chuck Norris' Triangle and the Red Drumlins are comfortably in the top 12. Once you get past Red Drumlins, however, PEARL doesn't have another group in the top 30. Total semifinalists: 9.

DIVISION 3 TOP TEN
1) XYZ-2.0 (165 points)
2) Swiggity Swooty Drums of the Booty (121 points)
3) Cadets of Blue Beats (115 points)
4) Krazy Beats Drumline (81 points)
5) Lightning Percussion (73 points)
6) Bluemen Percussion Ensamble [sic] (70 points)
7) Too Late To Explore the Sea (56 points)
8) Acceleration (47 points)
9) The Chieftain Attack (39 points)
10) Lancing Strikers (32 points)

D3 Top 12
-XYZ-2.0 (#1)
-Bluemen Percussion Ensamble (#12)
XYZ-2.0 is really good. Not really anything else I can say. They're almost 5 points ahead of silver, and it's still growing. Blueman Percussion Ensamble is hanging on at #12 after their rebranding (formerly New World Drumline). If they stumble, Swiggity Swooty Drums of the Booty is poised to swoop in from #13. Six more PEARL lines litter the D3 top 30. Total semifinalists:12.

OVERALL TOP FIVE
1) XYZ-2.0 (165 points) (D3)
2) Ear Drummers (144 points) (D1)
3) Black Beat NZ B (141 points) (D2)
4) Black Beat NZ (133 points) (D1)
5) Swiggity Swooty Drums of the Booty (121 points) (D3)

Mine! For the fan favorite. I pick mine.


But if I were to pick other than my own. It would've been either
XYZ-2.0 (I think they can) or
Chuck Norris's Triangle (Because of it's majestic display and stunning visual effect).

Hello all, I am getting ready to create our events. I wanted to do it last night but the site was down. Was I the only one who could not sign in for several hours?

anyway, I apologize for my absence. I want you to know that it's not a permanent situation. I'll be back in full force in season 44 as soon as this school year ends.

I read the request for an Asia/Oceania tour. You got it! I hope everyone is well. Thanks for your patience.

This season should be really good. Got Mercury's Metronome added to the D1 mix over the offseason. Some D3 depth was added. A lot of D1s are active this season. D2 should be fun (like always) especially with the addition of XYZ-2.0.

No PEARL Cup Standings this week, due to a computer crashing. I believe the Red Drumlins are the only PEARL group in the top 12, currently 12th in D2.
