With all the discussion lately about overscored/underscored PCS, I'm wondering if there's a better way to figure out PCS?
I'm waiting for someone to come out with a mathematical algorithm to determine it so at least there's some consistency.. perhaps a video tape analysis to determine speed across the ice, ice coverage, throw in a Dick Button pointed-toes index (this one is semi-joking, but you get the point ), etc.
I'm still seeing relics of the past 6.0 system that upset me, like saving the big scores for the last group of skaters, or waiting to hold off on marks b/c of past performances or someone's age. If the figure skating "elite" can come to a consensus on what is considered high PCS and what isn't shouldn't there be an automated, calculated way of determining it?
