here we go again hehe

My picks would be
Best Costume Piper and Paul I've got your back Paul !

Best Coach : Carol Lane. She deserves some love.

Most entertaining program : Adam Siao Him Fa LP

Best Choreo... Give it to Benoit so people are happy... Otherwise, I'd vote for someone who is NOT responsible for any of the boring RD we got this year.... So.. who's left ? Oh and Solya is out for me... i don't like his programs this year...

(sorry)
Yep, especially performance at Euros, with fall on opening quad so perfectly in sync with the choir starting howling and moaning. Part of me was oh-no-Adam-don't-get-a-grip but the other part almost laughed outloud, yep, this can be considered entertaining. Somehow.

Seriously, they have Mao Shimada (junior) but not Edward Scissorhands costume/program? Lol.

I see what you did there.

I love their quirkiness, but I still don't understand that costume. I would, however, have to give them a nod for their RD costumes - they're great! I especially like the lifeguard ones.

Maddie's FD one is stunning, of course.

Also can Olivia Smart's FD headwear have a nomination? Her whole costume's good, of course.

I read the announcement for 30 seconds and could not figure this out (I did not want to devote a full minute to it)

Do the fan votes actually count? Or is it like the NFL, well, we'll count what we want (They let fans vote on the Super Bowl MVP. Cooper DeJean won the fan vote. I love Coop, but really Not so fast, says the NFL, and Jalen Hurts got the actual trophy.)

Not that these awards are anywhere near the Super Bowl MVP, but as an example.

LOL and the Finns FD- the ice dance programme of the season- is not even nominated- neither is the choreographer- massimo scali. The IAM bias is painful

These fan voting things remind me of the USFSA's Reader's Choice Award (for subscribers to their magazine). Michelle Kwan won it 7 years in a row and they realized that no one else was ever going to win, so they kicked her out of eligibility and re-named the prize the Michelle Kwan Trophy. (Ilia Malinin won it last year.)

I suspect that best choreographers deliberately plan jumps at such moments to make sure that it will work either way

Regarding the fan vote... At least we'll find out which country has most fans who visit the ISU homepage

Or we will not. Because I am not receiving verification email.

Noting no MVP category this year?
ISU stating nobody is worth of the title this season? Or giving up on a farce of the pretended public vote on this one which is then corrected by the "expert" jury just in case the public goes wild and gives their vote to an "inappropriate" winner?

 

[Mathman]

Oh well, all in good fun. Fans get to vote for their faves, no harm in that.

 

[Jeanie19]

I have not either. I want to vote for Kevin and Deniss.

 

[4everchan]

I am certainly not voting because i am too lazy to register...

Which one do you mean? "Pirihara"'s FD is there at most entertaining cathegory - or is it added later?

 

[Cabguy]

How on earth is Green/Parsons Free Dance not nominated ? This program is so powerful , so absolutely mesmerizing , you can hear a pin drop inside the arena .
