That's what needs to happen, based solely on that list.
But here is another way to look at it.
At Skate Canada, where Alissa got her season's best (beating Kostner, Zhang and Lepisto), her only mistake in the LP was a -2 GOE on her second Lutz. With just a little tweak she could have got 110 in the LP (and beat Suguri, too).
Unfortunately, in the SP she got downgrades and other penalties on both her jump combo and her solo jump out of footwork. If she had skated a clean SP, she would easily have gotten, say 60.89.
This gives her a potential of 170.89 -- beating everyone else's season's best except Kim, Asada and Richette.
So a perfect skate by Alissa could get as high as fourth even if everyone else matches their seasons's best. :yes:
Pikashu, thanks for the data analysis! :agree:
