[MrScroogeMcDuck]

Dornbush into 1st.

 

[emma]

wow!!!! Richard into 1st - congrats to him; great skate! Go ARMIN!

 

[Tonichelle]

Dornbrush is on the ice, I'm not watching, bored. Is this really live? If not, can someone just tell me the scores to see who won? Who will be going to Worlds?

yes, it's LIVE.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

Dornbush is the guy who won junior grand prix?

yes

 

[Layfan]

That's what I thought. So no worlds for Adam, most likely.

 

[Nadine]

Tiny armin is on the ice.

 

[Chemistry66]

Wow. Wow. Wow!!!!! Yey Richard! What a showstopper!!!!

That was the Richard I was hoping to see in the SP.

In general, this LP competition is really shaping up to be better than the SP. So far. Richard should go ahead of Adam easily. Where was was coming into the LP anyway?

Go Armin!

 

[Nadine]

Armin is doing good, not really watching, but looks like he made no mistakes thus far.

 

[Nadine]

Scott grunts while I typed about "aahh, just the made the 3axel" or something equally innane like that.

 

[gmyers]

I definitely like Dornbush and he's a good first place and I don't think Armin has been equal.

 

[PolymerBob]

And Armin is doing great.
What is it today?

 

[seniorita]

I so prefer Armin than Rippon, the latter reminds me of Yuna... with pants. I prefer original Yuna with the dresses.

There's the link to the starting order/results if it helps.

Dornbush just finished skating, so it's waiting-for-scores time, then Armin's turn, and then hopefully Keegan's. Baring any stupid chacking my NBC.

they chack Keegan again and I'm gonna go postal.

 

[Nadine]

Looks like Armin did good, he's pleased, so are the commentators, and the audience.

 

[Puchi]

Armin was fantastic!!!!

 

[Nadine]

Brief shot of Abbott looking up in the audience with that look he gives.

 

[emma]

Great job Armin!!! You are awesome!

 

[museksk8r]

Scott and Sandra think the US has more depth in mens' skating than Japan? Whatever!

Jeremy looks so fierce waiting to go on the ice!

 

[Spun Silver]

Huge relief - Armin did well. Yippee!

I'm so happy with these guys. Sorry, it's not Adam who's the future of US men's skating. JMO. Go, Keegan!
