But honestly, she just seems like a super-strict caller.....
About Kim's lp: She skated a great one (but yes. teh short was better) at TEB this October, see the scores here:

I'm sorry, but I just can't see why Kim's 3-3 was downgraded. Could someone please explain?
I know that. but lv.1 was some stingy to yuna's step seq.
Looks like a super-strict technical caller....like the one at Skate America 2007, I guess.
I don't know. She was the TC for men's SP today and scores were rather generous.
Or she's out of her mind.
According to an article I found online, Yuna received +1.6 GOEs for her downgraded 3-3 combo. It's interesting..... if it was a downgrade-worthy, the judges would've given her negative GOEs but seems like the judges and tech. specialist aren't really saying the same thing, I guess.
Looks like a super-blind technical caller....like the one at Cup of China 2008, I guess.
So did such strict rules apply to every skater? I'm not trying to get anywhere with this (the last thing I want is a brawl between uber fans), but I am really confused. I just can't get my head around this.

Whatever she was judging, I don't think you should make fun of her name, she has a perfectly normal swiss name and decided to keep her maiden name as well.
Best to forget all this immediately. To be honest, I'm not a big fan of blaming referees (mainly because it always ends up being a major waste of time). But I couldn't help it due to a too big of a BS call today. I'm going to try to forget this asap myself.
Ahh....
The < on Yuna's 3T is just ridiculous.That combination was a humongous thing of beauty. Based on her score, I guess the judges also didn't see that.
Well, Alena looked a bit nervous and didn't really have that spark she usually radiates so I think her score is a bit lenient.
Ashley was great other than her usual flutz and a bit underrotated 2A.
I don't remember how Akiko did very well but I guess she also did very good. She did 3L instead of 3Lz unlike other ladies so maybe she lost some points there.
Joannie-well, it was not her day today. Overall she looked somewhat cautious and stiff.
Miki did fine I guess.
Yuna looked great except the popped flip, and again that downgrade is just sooooo strange. I feel sorry for her!
Well, the standing after SP is definately very unexpected and I think some posters who seem to hate how everything is already decided after SP here would be really happy about that.
Anyway, can't wait for LP!
I can't confirm that until the protocols are out, but she seemed to have given Ashley Wagner's jumps a thumbs-down too. Joannie didn't seem to get the benefit of doubt either.
