Quote from: "Leishu"If I can make one small suggestion, though it's logistically harder. It was something many of us on the side there talked about after the show. I can actually see how, with 60 or so groups, it'd be much harder to do. In the past, all of the groups on the side have been brought up on stage for the audience's viewing pleasure for the announcement of the award winners. If that's possible, again, I personally thought that it added a sort of nifty amount of game-show surprise to the whole thing (and spontaneous moments, like one of my team-members kissing Brian quite passionately and another kissing me. Yay for Masquerade yaoi... o_O). I don't really think it'll be entirely practical to do with the number of groups we now have. It is, after all, not a huge stage, but perhaps ways to preserve that spontaneity should be brainstormed, or something. It was a little weird to see the groups picked out of the crowd beforehand.Just a random thought. :p
not all of the groups went up beforehand though, i saw quite a few groups go up as they were announcing there award.
to the coordinators and people involved in the masquerade, i personally liked that you guys didn't have everyone onstage, it was so much more orderly, and practical, and i could see the groups who won what award ten times easier than in previous years ^_^
in past years where everyone is dragged onstage, people have to shove there way to front to get the award, and it'd take more time because they have to go through the people onstage.
