Hi everyone! I’m new here (first time poster, but long time lurker)
I so enjoy seeing everyone’s support of Shooms and those around him, so I hope to contribute to that in some small way as well.

23. What is your favorite EX skate?
I thought This Town was super sweet and I really liked the suaveness of Time After Time.

28. What is your favorite program?
Loco! Loved how intense and dynamic it was. I always enjoy watching how Shoma gives his entire self when he skates, but this program stands out to me in particular.
Ladies in Lavender is a close second.

Thanks and sorry for crashing the party everyone! &#55357;&#56841;

Welcome! The more, the merrier! This thread is awesome

19. Do you own any Shoma merchandise? (i.e. Colantotte necklace)?

Nope, I only wear earrings for jewelry, and that — rarely, but I will buy a Japanese flag if I get my chance to see Uno skate live.

Congrats lariko for getting post #14000! :agree:

What better post for Post 14000 than a post about Shomerchandise?!

And you reminded me -- when I answered question #19, I forgot to mention my precious flag! How could I forget?! :drama:

If our buddy Jack Gallagher is to be believed, GP assignments are going to be announced around midnight Thursday, Japan time. I'm 14 hours behind that. So 10 am Thursday, Chicago time for me. https://twitter.com/sportsjapan/status/1141316740074262528?s=19

Midnight on Thursday, Tokyo Time sounds like a name of a thriller.

Wow, I got the 14K post, did not even notice, it was so early for me. But yay for Uno’s memorabilia, that signed flag is awesome!!! My kid told me she would cover mine in anime drawings when we get it. I wish she could draw the skaters, but it’s going end up like Fullmetal Alchemist... v. weird, but nothing for it.

It must be true Arriba you know how Jack loves to scoop. :scratch2:

Problem for me trying to figure out what exactly is he scooping.

True -- like I said elsewhere, the scoop is that there's no scoop! :yawn:

...I would like to announce a scoop -- I'm having cottage cheese and blueberries for lunch. (oh wait, I guess that's not a scoop!) Come on Jack! :furious:

rabidline · Jun 19, 2019

Speaking of scoops, found this delicious scoop of "ice cream" on Twitter:

Definitely sweeter than the scoops above, sorry Jack :luv17:

Not long until the GP assignments are out!

I like the way it looks like something is growing out of his head in that first photo. And what's with the eyes?!

Surprised she didn't call him peach. I can see where it really fits!

Imov · Jun 20, 2019

12 midnight in Asia has passed where are the assignments?
I wanna know where can I get a glimpse of Shomita

TallyT · Jun 20, 2019

Someone said midnight Thursday in Japan? - which I assume means tonight... 1 am for me.

I think one of the Shoma Chinese fans on Twitter did mention that Sui did call him "peach" ("momo") as that's his nickname from his Chinese fans? But ice cream fits well too doesn't it?

Jack Gallagher's tweet said "Thursday night" which he estimates to be midnight in Japan.

I presume by "midnight in Japan" he means the midnight from Thursday to Friday in Japan, which makes more sense since that would be the Thursday night in the other parts of the world. (As opposed by the midnight from Wednesday to Thursday in Japan, where in other places it's still Wednesday night).

But this is Jack and he didn't cite any sources, so... guess we'll all see tonight! Well, tonight in my side of the world, at least.

Edited to add: NHK Trophy Twitter updated that they will release their list of competitors tomorrow on 21 June 2019!

Oh, well, it is a bit disappointing that the date was wrong, but I thought from the beginning that if the meeting is on 19-20June, the press release will be on the 21st. So, tomorrow!

20. If they made a biographical movie about Shoma, what actor would you want to play Shoma?

Oh, Ed Skrein, he is a shoe in for Uno!

Seems to me when they've given 2 dates like that, a couple times the assignments have been given on the first date, so I am surprised it's taking this long. They just like to torture us! :gaah: :curse: :console:

:hpull:

ADDING -- Ok, this one I trust. I'm expecting something at 10 am my time which is in less than an hour. https://twitter.com/Tatjana21/status/1141697396767907840?s=19

It's out, COR & France

Arriba627 · Jun 20, 2019

Here we go. Here's the list for all the disciplines. https://isu.org/figure-skating/events/grand-prix-of-figure-skating

Aww, first time as a senior no North America. :console:

:sad4: So disappointed, but I know it's for the best. He is getting his choreo so late that he really needs the extra time. As always, only wishing him the best. He has some tough assignments, but he is up to the challenge! :ghug:

Le monsieur de Japonais and Shomochka Unov it is! France and Russia!

Calling all European DBC members.. what is the usual procedure to welcome the Prince? :love:

c3zara · Jun 20, 2019

aaaaaaaa both events in Europe, Shomajesty is officially ours now :laugh:

Ofc my predictions were quite wrong, I was expecting IdF but not CoR
I'm sorry Arriba and Iariko, I know how much you wanted to see him at SC/SA. But I'm really happy that he'll have more time to get the programs ready

Zaki · Jun 20, 2019

Both GPs in Europe... mmm.. that's interesting.
