... and Nam!!
Well, he did move up 4 spots - but he usually does better in the FS anyway because he has no quad in the short
... and Nam!!
Oh, thanks, Mrs P.
And from what I just looked up in an old GS thread, the World Standings count toward getting only one GP assignment.

(As an aside, I hate to add that Max's position in the World Standings could change after the re-weighting of the seasonal placement points. But I would think that he still would be in the crucial top 24 for one assignment.)
But I am happy that the others are guaranteed two assignments.

Ouch, I didn't know that. I should have asked myself whether he was injured, though, because he's been very consistent this season and popping those jumps was so unlike him. Gosh. I feel terribly for him.
What about Han Yan, though? I actually did ask myself whether he was injured after his second fall. Injuries or cracking under pressure?
So the only skaters who didn't have any crazy jumps up and down the rankings were Javier, Denis, Yuzuru, Jason, and Misha Ge. Hm.
omg, NBC did NOT just reduce their men's coverage to Javier's free skate. LOOL. Is this what you guys have to put up with? I normally just watch CBC.
2 WEEKS? Wow. That's really lame.They have more coming in like 2 weeks.

I find that he has already been improving speed and his spins throughout the season. He was soooo slow at Skate America and CoC, but here his speed was decent, though not at the level of the top skaters. I think we can definitely expect a quad in the short next year, and I would also guess a second quad in the FS.
But this was actually his second senior Worlds. He was 12th last year

Not sure what's wrong with saying alarming.
^ Ain't Nam's fault if others can't keep up the consistency. He can, and that consistency allows him to place well at almost every competition he's entered this season (except 4CC).
He may have been more cautious due to the problems in 4CC. Or nerves.I have noticed some improvement in speed. I thought he was slower in his SP than in the FS. Nerves, perhaps?
We don't bother with NBC. We either watch live streams or various Youtube videos that get posted shortly after.
2 WEEKS? Wow. That's really lame.
We've had some great performances. I think I was cheering for over half the skaters while watching this with my family.
Special Kudos to: Kozuka, Jason, Misha, Vornov, Nam, Ten, Javi, YUZU, Amodio, Joshua , Haneee .
Why do I like watching the guys so much?
They are sooo messy, why doesn't it bother me?
1. It's like riding a rollercoaster...a heart-pumping adrenaline rush around every corner
2. We are masochists
3. Even when they screw up terribly, they're so endearing, you can't help but forgive them (most of them anyway)
Take your pick
To be honest I'm the most heart broken by Mura and Kozuka and Han Yan.
I means... What happened to them?
The medalists are all happy to be honest, they actually had great skates compare to the rest.
The medalists actually get medal. They came their for gold, just image if they're off the podium, that would be nightmare for them.I think that probably the two guys wit the best skates were Nam and Misha. They both skated to their fullest potential, even though they don't yet have the goods to challenge for medals
