If she places 2nd she will have to score over 200 to out-score radionova.
In case anyone's looking for them, current standings lists can be found here:

I'm too lazy to do the math myself to figure out all the possible GPF scenarios, so if anyone else wants to, have at it.
I remember that last year there were some lists with the scores updated for each category after each competition. Any idea if they still exist for this year?
zamboni step said:This is the first time Akiko has missed the GPF since the 2008-2009 season, and the first season ever she's actually had a chance of qualifying and not done it....
It's even worse, because this is her final season... it just won't be the same without the angel of music :no:
zamboni step said:On top of that, that makes her NHK FS (which despite being beautiful, was not stellar technically) was her last skate in an International in Japan.....
And I won't get to see her programs the maximum amount of times as possible now....There's nothing for it, she'll just have to win Olympic gold then.
But worlds are in Japan this season, so Akiko has another chance to skate there! My personal dream would be for Mao to win the OGM, decide that it's a perfect ending for her career and leave worlds for Akiko to win
Although if Akiko wins the OGM, I'd be crying of joy too. Way to show the JSF that they low-balled her unrightfully her whole career.
