I think the 6.0 system was a compromise that worked fine. It gave the top finishers in the SP a chance to "control their own destinies," while at the same time it allowed Sarah Hughes, Rudy Galindo and Paul Wylie to rise to rare glory.
what about the Michael Weiss's who skated as well as ever and yet had lost favor with the judges because he hadn't done well at worlds in a while and he skated 2nd in the entire event? I'm sure there were other skaters that dealt with this as well (I think Todd Eldredge also suffered from an early skate in 02)... CoP levels that part of the playing field easier... it's teh disconnect to the competition as a whole that needs fixing. (for my wants)
