So true. Those skating in the final group that even have less then great skates still can get higher PCS marks then those who had great skates but skater in an earlier group. They can even get a higher PCS score then they got from a great skate.
And GOE is just for giving the skaters you like a better score. If you like the skater or they are form a certain country you give them +3. If they are not one of your favs they get a 0 even when the element is outstanding. Just look at the GOE the RUS pairs S/K received for their spin at worlds that was totally out of sink: -.06! A less favorable pair would have received -2s or 3s across the judges.
Good point! Mao got a -1 from one judge for her perfect triple axel at Worlds, but still got the World record SP fortunately.
