When does taping resume? July or August or nobody knows for sure?

Re: Timing of Audition Invite Emails
Sigh. I don't know why this extremely non-objectionable post has the most doubters of any post I've made on jboard. A reply in the thread linked above says that someone else has an audition on May 13th in Atlanta. Check it outStanislaus Jacob wrote: ↑Mon May 07, 2018 2:09 pmPsst - it says May 15.

I'm sorry if you wanted an audition in Atlanta and didn't get it, but that doesn't mean these posts are lying.

Re: Timing of Audition Invite Emails
I think the only question was May 15 vs. May 13. The answer is, as usual, that it can be two things.boson wrote: ↑Mon May 07, 2018 2:40 pmSigh.

Re: Timing of Audition Invite Emails
I got two auditions in recent years, after online scores in the 35-40 range... This year was my best test ever, with all those older literature questions and very little "pop" stuff -- I think I got 47 -- but no audition.
If I chose Philly but they're not going there, could that be a factor? Or might they still possibly offer, say, NYC?

I'm waiting on Cleveland as well. Have they ever just skipped an audition city before?

Yeah I'm almost positive they skipped the NC audition city last round (can't remember if it was Charlotte or Raleigh...)DysonSphere wrote: ↑Tue May 08, 2018 10:55 am I'm waiting on Cleveland as well. Have they ever just skipped an audition city before?

They skipped Raleigh from two rounds ago (was it two rounds or three...I think two), they did go to Charlotte last round.nklotz wrote: ↑Tue May 08, 2018 11:43 amYeah I'm almost positive they skipped the NC audition city last round (can't remember if it was Charlotte or Raleigh...)DysonSphere wrote: ↑Tue May 08, 2018 10:55 am I'm waiting on Cleveland as well.

I can confirm that a time when WOF went to NYC, they did pull people from the Philly market. This doesn't mean J! will as well, but does open the possibility to J! skipping a city while pulling names from a nearby city.

I remember. I had selected Raleigh as my city that year. Sure hope they don't skip Memphis this time around!triviawayne wrote: ↑Tue May 08, 2018 4:11 pmThey skipped Raleigh from two rounds ago (was it two rounds or three...I think two)...

Re: Timing of Audition Invite Emails
Was choosing a preferred audition city mandatory when registering? I don't recall.

Count me among the Cleveland hopefuls as well! If I am invited, it would be really interesting to see the other Cleveland auditioners from jboard.
