On the new judging system
Ok, I dont get it, if practically everyone from the skaters, coaches, commentators, media, fans to past skaters and legends is protesting about the new judging system, why on earth do they still want to carry on to implement it? Coupled with the fact that the ranges of marks for both techical merit and presentation are ridiculously wide, I just don't understand why they stubbornly refuse to at least make changes in the new system.
The idea of randomly choosing 9 out of 14 judges for a competition to minimise corruption is excellent but alas, the idea of hiding their identities is stupid and it defeats the whole purpose of minimising corruption. Alright, so hiding the identity of the judges who give the marks is the main problem, fine, if they still want to implement it why not improve on it? May I be so bold as to suggest (might be laughable) they reveal what judges who give what marks at the end of a competition? By doing so, the judges no longer dare misbehave because although during the competition they are not revealed, at the end of the competition everybody will know them.
