Thanks WeakAnkles! Nice to hear some good news about the silver in ice dance because I didn't do well with most of my other predictions, especially the men's!
Thanks weakankles! Yay, gold at ice dance! Can we forget about other disciplines and call it a day?
In the Ladies, I was so tempted to give the home fans what they wanted and have Russians locking out all of the Top 4 positions. Yes, it would be a dream for Polina to be the best overseas representative in her mother’s homeland. But, I have to be realistic. Rika is in the form of her life. And, at the end of the day, I do think she is a better skater than Polina. Not only that, but I think she is capable of challenging for the win.

My first gold of the games, sweet!
I'm going to be gone tomorrow, so I got all ambitious and, well, THE DANCE RESULTS ARE POSTED.
Yes, I'm back scoring because Snow has been off eating pizza and enjoying the skating LIVE. Be sure to read his reports in the appropriate thread. Am I jealous? I could be all big and (lie) and say, why no, I'm not jealous at all. But you know, even I can't swallow that! Hmpf. And green is so not my color...OF COURSE I'M JEALOUS. But I'm glad Snow is having a fun time.
So without further ado...

Please be aware that next week's awards will be Silk, Cotton, Polyester, as there apparently is now a world wide shortage of precious metals (hmmm, I wonder why!).
And this event's special award for Good Citizenship goes to...Florencito, who posted late, and as a gesture of no doubt good sportsmanship, did not include any dance predictions at all since the event was already underway. Please run immediately for ISU President.
Yes, there are a few of you whose scores aren't currently on the spread sheet. I have already notified the ever efficient Grand Scoring Poobah Mrs P, and I'm sure we'll take care of that little issue right away. Thanks for your patience!
Thank you all for participating and a big congrats to this events Premier Prognosticators!
:hap57:
:hap93:
:handw: (this is me after doing all the scoring by hand!)
ETA: Mrs P has already added everyone to the score sheet. Hey, you don't get to be Grand Scoring Poobah unless you ARE that good. Just sayin'...
I think my dance score and SashaJuliaSpins's score may be switched on the score summary page of the spreadsheet.
So here's the pairs medals
GOLD: Pippuripihvi, Norwayskater and shyne, 65 points!
SILVER: Poice, text_skate, LA143, lighthouse, Snow63, sabinfire, KIG and IIVoloFan, 60 points
