[4everchan]

Quick question, I’m watching on NBC. Are Tara and Johnny not at the rink? Are any commentators actually at the event?

not from NBC.. they are all in Connecticut

Daniel Grassl ranks 1 in the world?

My roommate and I are so confused about the world rankings...

 

[ffloweer]

I'm still shocked by Yuzu's mistake but Shoma and Junhwan beautiful skates helped soothe the pain.
Everyone in the last group, let's go!

Okay Ichat has reincarnated into a happy version of herself, who needs hands and nicknames?

I need both. I’m about to either cry or barf. Possibly both.

I get that he’s a two time Olympic champion but this scoring was unacceptable hanyu with highest pcs??? It should be shumo! The triple Alex should have had a negative execution score and zero points for that salchow pop unbelievable

I agree. The PCS should be lower than Shoma.

Read an article today that these were the least watched Olympics in a very long time (in America).

It's no wonder. This coverage is just awful.

And the more awful it gets, the fewer people watch, the worse the ads become, the more awful it gets....

I need peppermint tea... I don't feel great WHY IS THIS HAPPENING NOW?

Yes Yuma back to his old costume! The Grumpa vest is gone!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Me! (nicknames mostly, have recovered from Yuzu, I think...)

You're going to be Isla for now on

I never understand why Moris always ends up in the last group

He works hard, he plays hard.

Someone told me it's because he does lots of Challenges.

So happy that Keegan is here!

Dat spread eagle

Quick question, I’m watching on NBC. Are Tara and Johnny not at the rink? Are any commentators actually at the event?

NBC said they were not sending staff to Beijing so I don't think they are in China at all.

Time for me to get a cup of coffee before last group I have to run to my workplace afterwards.

I'm making a coffee now as well and have to start working in two hours time. Luckily, I'm still working from home.

 

[ice coverage]

Feeling bad for Yuzuru.

Also feeling doubly bad for Vincent. More than ever, I cannot help wondering what a COVID-free Vincent could have accomplished in the individual event.

Daniel Grassl ranks 1 in the world?

My roommate and I are so confused about the world rankings...

It’s based on points you get at comps. For example Nathan hasn’t done 4CCs in several years so he isn’t first even though he’s world champion. They don’t really mean much as long as you’re in the top 24 to get 2 GP assignments.

Why is Nathan dressed like someone who is going to a wedding?

EUROS points for top Europeans while North Americans and Japanese skaters skipped on 4cc (+ all the Challengers daniel did)

Quick question, I’m watching on NBC. Are Tara and Johnny not at the rink? Are any commentators actually at the event?

I don't think so -- at least not T & J. Pretty sure I heard them say yesterday that they were at a studio in the US (Connecticut).

Just Andrea Joyce apparently.

 

[Arigato]

That sucks that that happened at the Olympics.

It gets worse, Tara turned it into drama on TV and said something idiotic about him looking back at the place where he lost or something, meanwhile, he was looking back at where the problem with the ice actually was.

And you're Kay because you love a lot of Ks (Keegan Messing, the Knierims,etc.)
