There are older guidelines for positive GOEs, at least for US judging. I assume the following were based on an older ISU document:

Adding creativity/originality is the obvious across the board change to the GOEs.
The PCS criteria should have creativity/originality more explicitly stated. At the moment it settles on variety, which only separates elements within the same program, not across multiple programs. Also, to have variety, IMO it pays to be faster and emphasis quantity. Not so with creativity/originality which emphasizes quality.
