Oh that is perfect, I can do that.

 

[wagnerfan]

I am still alive and awake. Only two hours to go... I am envious of all of you West Coasters.

 

[ranjake]

I'm ready. I'll be up. PRAYING my IceNetwork is!!

 

[Crossover]

Go everyone and set up a new SB/PB for themselves.

 

[wagnerfan]

Do they not show "PB" when they give results? I'm pretty sure 71 was a PB for Gracie, but it showed SB. Anyone know why?

I don't think they show PB. They don't even show if it is a WR.

So, who are you guys especially rooting for today?

I'm rooting for Ashley Gold, er no. Gracie Wagner. No, that doesn't sound right either. Oh well, I'll root for both! (Although Ashley slightly more)

I'm rooting for Ashley Wold.

 

[wagnerfan]

Although it sounds horrible, I'm slightly hoping for the Russians to flop their program so the Americans get can 1-2 today. (Preferably Ashley first and Gracie second. )

 

[Alchamei]

Any working live stream? Probably ISU, right?

 

[nox1]

I'm hoping for Elena to skate clean and hopefully improve her ranking

 

[Trewyn]

So how high to Ashley and Gracie need to place (respective of the Russians) to hold onto the team gold? (I'm really bad at math) Of course I'm hoping for Ashley to rock her Moulin Rouge program and get 1st in the free

Acccording to my math, which isn't the best either, they can place behind both the Russian and at least one Japanese and it would still be victory for team USA.

 

[TwinnerA]

Ashley and Gracie could finish 3 and 4 and the team would still win Gold, I think. Team USA currently has 93 points, so if A&G went 3 (10 points) and 4 (9 points), they'd have 112 total. If Liza and Elena went 1&2, they would get 12 and 11 points added to their current 86 for a total of 108. However, Team Japan is currently tied with Team Russia and are in the mix too! Anything can happen!

To win, Russia would need to make up 7 points or more over the US (7 goes into tiebreaker, and my brain is too dead to calculate that). One scenario: Liza and Lena go 1-2, for a combined 23. The total of the American ladies must add up to 16 points or more. A combination of 4th + 5th, or 3rd + 6th, ect. would do it.

...Or, so my math says. It's not my strong suit either. But basically, Russia's chances are near gone due to the results in men and pairs. Which is sad news for me, but good news to you, I guess.

They are playing Slutskaya's FP music from 2005 Worlds now in the arena I love that program

:thumbsup:

 

[QLutz]

anyone have link to japanese broadcast?

 

[Sjs5572]

I think USA wins the tiebreaker because even if Tukt wins, highest placements for Russia would be 1 for ladies' long and 3 for pairs short, while USA's would be 1 for ladies' short and 2 for men's' long or dance short.
