I didn't see this before, but it seems you are right. The green stripe at Cup of China has gone.... Nebelhorn was the first time he showed this program?

In the meantime I checked also the protocols of the alst JO and WTT, to look at the success of 4 quads (clean lands and positive GOEs) for Nathan and Shoma. These are the conclusive remarks and the percentages > In the last 10 comps (first Chall.B 2016 to last GPF) Nathan landed 1 quad in one, 2 quad in six, and 4 quads only in three. In these last the GOEs have never surpassed 2.43 and are in average about 2.00 for 4Lz and 4Lz combo, much lesser (0.50-1.80) for the other quads. If we want to add JO 2017, Nathan landed only 2 quads with positive GOEs, initial 4Lo and the 4Lz combo. In WTT 2017 Nathan landed 3 quads with positive GOEs, the initial 4F combo, the 4T combo and the single 4T. TOT. success rate 10 comps x 4 quads with positive GOE: 30%; adding JO and WTT > 25% In the last 10 comps (first Chall.B 2016 to last GPF) Shoma landed 1 quad in one, 2 quad in five, 3 quad in three and 4 quads only in one (Lombardia Trophy at the beginning of this season). In this last he GOEs have never surpassed 2.00 and are in average about 0.80-1.80 for the other quads. If we want to add JO 2017, Shoma landed only 2 quads with positive GOEs, initial 4Lo and the single 4T. In WTT 2017 Shoma landed again only 2 quads with positive GOEs, the same initial 4Lo and the single 4T. TOT. success rate 10 comps x 4 quads with positive GOE: 10%; adding JO and WTT > 8,3% Are these success rates and quality marks so good to let think people to go easily and to skate clean and well with a 5 quads layout now ...? Maybe it would better to consolidate a 4 quads layout before to attempt something more difficult...or not? This observation could be applied also to Yuzu, obviously (25% success rate in 8 comps + WTT if we consider the minus GOEs applied only for the 1loop/combo: 33%).

I think that you could be right. Also the time when this new came out let me think that here they waited the final results and took in consideration the fact that with a Shoma showing not so strong, if Yuzuru is not healed properly, it's not the case to risk anything with him. Frankly, not having news till now, I was afraid he was not capable to recover to the point to compete at Nat on a sufficient good level, i.e. for him to be sure to win over Shoma or to be able at least to give a high profile perfomance also without Lz. In this case his body and also his mind have the command over all factors: if they are not well yet, better to wait and use the time from here to PC in the best way possible, i.e. healing and training properly. We will wait for other news in the next week. In the meantime all the best whishes to our Alien King whichever decision he and his team will take in regard to Nat.

In the light of what has been said in the last post (by @kiches, @Forcefield and @Murieleirum) i report also here these posts, with some data about success of quads, 4 quads performances and GOEs for quads for Nathan, Shoma and Yuzuru. https://planethanyu.com/topic/486-2017-gpf-men-sp-fs/?do=findComment&comment=133082 https://planethanyu.com/topic/486-2017-gpf-men-sp-fs/?do=findComment&comment=133090 It's clearly - as kiches said - a good progression in the last season for Yuzuru and in some part also Nathan and Shoma, and something more erratic and also less interesting to see - at least for me - this part of the season from Uno and Chen.

I think you did very well ! Don't be nervous: you did an awesome job and, more important, with passion and patience, virtues that he can understand very well (he has 'eyes' for this sort of dedication, I think). Hopefully the link will reach him (cross all the fingers). Now you can rest and simply enjoy the the fact that today is HIS birth day .

Ok. I asked just because of the last message left here by Hydro (and because I am not on twitter and so forth, so I do not have any other way to know it...).

So...did we (well Hydro ) send it somewhere?

It works perfectly also on Firefox now! Awesome @Hydroblade! You really deserve our hug and ... his smile http://ww1.sinaimg.cn/large/5e3297dfgw1exjm0z2qz9j233426h4qs.jpg

I don't see the close down button at first, but if I try to move the window with two fingers or I rotate the screen it appears and I can close it. Try in this way.

And now all the others keep coming:

Thank you so much for the suggestion: I already tried but still not seeing the stripe with the messages. But really I don't want bother too much. Just saying because really we don't know if and how Yuzu will have access to this map, but hopefully he could see in all its richness and its beauty (I like this "solar" and potentially fluffy world !).

Yesss!!! Now is working at least on iPhone . The bar with the messages for me is still blank on Firefox and Chrome too. But, as I said, i trust our Hydro ...and the Force of Pooh Edit: P.S. If the clusters are counting right, on the map are 2937 messages now !

Ok if with your iPhone it works maybe could be a problem of the settings of mine...? Better in this way. Sorry if I have bothered

If I recall the suggestions until nowe were: - TCC twitter account - Team Cricket /@teamcricketskating on Fb (they have posted the photo of the bus stop, so...) Eventually also a post to fb ANA or an e-mail to ANA, but it seemed the less direct and probable way to someone. I checked again now: I see the map on the top - with all the Poohs - and the white stripe at the bottom. I hope that someone else with an other IPhone could also check.

I am so sorry for you, and sorrier because really I cannot help you. Do what you can and what is the best to be read by Yuzuru. It doesn't bother me for Firefox (is one among so many different browsers...) but for the IPhone, because last that I saw he had an IPhone, also if actually I don't know now. Thank you again for your patience. Let us know when You have done and sent it

Poor Hydro .... These are the general measures of IPhone 6: Height: 5.44 inches (138.1 mm); Width: 2.64 inches (67.0 mm). However I see the white stripe also on the desktop version with firefox: the mute map and a lateral mute stripe.

I drop here just to inform @Hydroblade that the map is not working on Firefox - again - plus now is not entirely functional on iPhone too (i.e. I have problem to close the initial message to look at the map; I don't see the list but just a white stripe alongside the map ) . I hope that at least for IPhone could be functional soon, so that you will be able to send the link to TCC via twitter and/or fb. Besides these problems, a last suggestion: now that there are so many Poohs, would be not better to make open the map on the Pooh Rain Forecast setting, with the possibility to switch after to the detailed version? Or it's too complicate to do now? Last: now that the deadline is so close, I thank you again for you hard work ! May be the Force of Pooh be with you in this last part of the task !

Here you are: the first MAD (at least that I found) for the celebration of his 23rd birthday

Thinking well, you are probably right about JSF: plus with so many skaters they do have, I do no think that they would to do this kind of "service" for every one and they cannot make any exception. With ANA I would try to give a shot though, just because they are commercial and know the power of fandom and they have decided to sponsor JUST THIS skater. So that we have at least two probabilities that someway the messages could reach Yuzu for his birthday (if everything will march properly...). Absolutely agree on the tone of the messages and, mostly, on the fact that there's no need to mention other athletes in them. I don't know if is the case to briefly mention this in the opening message or is better let it go and just spreading the concept in more casual way, to create less fuss about it?

I like your enthusiasm ! But I think that for all these maybe is better to ask to @Hydroblade and all the others who had the original idea and are currently working on the project, because only them know its status and when it will be ready to send the link and / or the messages. It will be also more meaningful to send it by the general accounts of the Planet, IMO. In the meantime we can make suggestions for it and spam the link to collect messages as much as possible until tomorrow. I am sure that people who know well Japanese will be glad to help with a short text message, if necessary. P.S. It's not working again with Firefox, while yesterday evening (Europe central zone time) was working wery well also with this browser...

Yes, I think these two things could work and maybe also an email to or any other kind of messages on social with the link to ANA with the kind request to let him know it? As his main sponsor they will be glad to see how he is followed all over the world and they have surely the way to contact him, if they want it. Any other kind of idea it will be welcome: after all this hard work from Hydro and all those nice messages, we have to make this happen for his birthday, imagining a look like this while he will look at the Pooh, satellites and bows rain on global scale !

Dear @Hydroblade the map is "growing" in a really wonderful way! And the clusters markers for the Pooh Rain Forecast are awesome I hope that in the next few days other satellites and not - but just Yuzu or skating fans - will add their birthday messages. So, then, do we you/we have a plan to send a message with the link to Yuzu?

Yep. I tried and I think that @LadyLou is right: it's a problem of browser. I can't see the simbols and messages using firefox, while I can see and read all of them with my IPhone. I hope that @Hydroblade could fix this last problem, because it would be very nice to collect and to make him read as much birthday messages as possible. What I like very much is the idea that with this system he can have not only a Pooh rain at World level, but also that he can have all of the messages always with him on his IPhone, to give a look everytime he whishes ...

Mmmm...maybe I click on the wrong link? If I click on the "Happy Birthday Yuzu!" I see the map without anything... Thank you Hydro for your time, your work and...your patience.
