Countdown begins

Looks like the countdown has begun. In 6 days, the battle between the teams will be over and we will have our winners.

A small recap on all 7 groups.

Version 2.8 [Vote space 1]


What we liked

- Fantastic use of props, and the incorporation of dance movement with props are very well done.
- Individuality of dance is evident, but we aren’t sure if its enough to clinch the title.

What we didn't like

- Coordination could do with a little fine tuning.
- Lack of confidence in execution of your piece sometimes



Ryan Spencer Revolution [Vote space 2]


What we liked

- ONLY girl group in Dhool. You have a niche right there and then.
- Concepts used have been engaging so far!

What we didn’t like

- Use of props are very minimal (although they are nice). Try making use of the props more.
- Expressions ladies! Semi Finals was a big improvement. Try to keep it going from there.

Tridiac [Vote space 3] 


What we liked


- This group holds some of the most pro dancers in the competition, utilize it!!!
- Energy is like WOA.

What we didn’t like

- Tad bit too much of outdoor 'influences'. Original flavour of Tridiac not evident
- TRY refraining from popping, locking, breaking, krumping and anything with HIP HOP. But if they do, will it work to their disadvantage?


Chakraz [Vote space 4]

What we liked

- ONLY mixed group in Finals! So many advantages just because of that. Choreography is endless.
- Creativity has always been there. Up it! Up it!!!

What we didn’t like

- No more acrobatics please. We really like them, but they throw you off course sometimes. And pity those girls. -_-.
- Extremely messy positioning due to the bulk of changing positions and all.


Aerocrats [Vote space 5]


What we liked

- Ideas and concepts have been out of the box so far! But can you up it a 3rd time round? Say yes, please!
- Expressions are unbelievable!!!

What we didn’t like

- We tried and tried to think of a con and the only thing we can come up with is that the public's expectations of them are sky high. Will they be able to match it?


Agni Reloaded [Vote space 6]

What we liked

- Been in the dance scene for VERY long. Experience, use it to your advantage.
- If there’s nothing this group lacks, it definitely has to be energy.

What we didn’t like

- Piece always looks like one of a CC dance!
- Versatility of group not that evident, not as much as what the other groups are displaying
.


Killabeez [Vote space 7]

What we liked

- These boys in general just know to to engage their audience
- New and upbeat formations!

What we didn’t like

- No lip syncing! At least not everyone.
- Costumes could so much better boys.

Highlight

It looks like the plea for single SMS entries fell on deaf ears. So now there is only one thing left to do. Ready?

PEOPLE!!! START SMSing!!! If you want your teams to win, then punch in the correct names and vote away! Teams, flood bulletins, send out SMS's asking family and friends to vote, go over to your neighbours house and make nice with them, afterwards ASK THEM TO VOTE for your groups! Maybe, just maybe teams should be thick skinned and vote for themselves as well! Do whatever you can in your will and way to get as many votes in as you possibly can for yourselves. If you don't, then you might just regret it. Same goes for voters. Try your best to vote as much as you can (but please don't bust your bills)!

Why are we turning the tables? Simple! We find it redundant to loose out in SMS votings when you have come THIS far in the competition! And also, the lines have been opened since 7pm last night! 1 week, 7 days, 168 hours, 10080 minutes, 604800 seconds!!! (yes, we painstakingly used a calculator to find out). All we can say is, you CANNOT loose out in SMS votings. it will be extremely sad if you do, that too at the last lap.

Clearly, opening the line for 1 week is for you to vote based on their previous 2 (some 3) performances. Popularity votes. For now, it's not based on their final performances. The fates of these groups lay in our ability to vote in, with no mercy to our wallets.

This is probably the last time we are ever gonna say this but after 8 weeks of Dhool, we all have witnessed what a major role these votings play for all our teams. Please, don't let history repeat itself. Not now. Not at this crucial time. Remember, we all play a role in this. Do your part. Vote now.

Maybe for future shows, we could have a result show. Just for the finals. We have realised using the polls in our website, that before watching any group dance, the public tend to vote for the group they think will do well, based on previous dances. But after the show, the votes change drastically and we see that the team that deserves to be in, their votes start rising. It's only fair if you open it one week before, to close it one week after. Rather then closing it half an hour after the last group performs. Mmmm....


Well, there’s nothing much we all can do except for just sit and vote! The updates of the votes can be found in the link below:

Aerocratz are leading, followed by Version 2.8 and Agni Reloaded.


Will the positioning very drastically after a few days? That’s in your hands! Till the next time!
