Legacy and Hope

I'm honestly shocked that I did so well this year. Last year was my first year watching the GP series and I pretty much bombed the prediction game. At least I can say I learned something, despite having based all my Pairs and ID predictions on what other people were saying since I don't watch those I actually got BQ8 right according to my memory and the spreadsheet. Doesn't affect anything scoring-wise. Just gives me bragging rights.

Submitted just in time (I hope?) This men's event is just terrifying.

Submitted by accident the first time so had to submit again. Sorry!

Submitted. I have no idea how I did so well before. I know nothing about pairs and dance. I'm prepared for this to be a disaster.

1.List the top 3 of each discipline. (+ extra in case someone withdraws) Bonus Questions 2. In ladies, will there be more clean (positive GOE) 3 axels or quads? 3. Who will have the highest PCS before factoring? 4. Who will receive the highest GOE on a single element? 5. In ice dance, will anyone who was not top 3 after the rhythm dance end up with a medal? 6. Which disciplines will have a new season’s best? Grand Prix Finals Qualification - to be scored after NHK 1.Who will qualify for the finals. *Optional - list alternates in case of withdrawal (If someone withdraws before the final but after all the series events, I'll take the list of people who outright qualified) 2.Who will be the top qualifier in each discipline? If there is a tie in points for placement, I will use highest total score as a tie breaker. 3. Which disciplines will have a new world record by the end of the series?

I feel like the captions were trying to tell some sort of story. But it ended up being about a 3-year-old hater of skiing and his romance with a silhouette.

Well it's not too bad, but... the kuyashii is burning.

Thank you for this. My soul, too, has been elevated just watching Yuzu's expressions listening to Chopin...

Wait what?

Happy Birthday dear Yuzu! Thank you for inspiring me so much over the past year. And thank you for introducing me to the wonderful sport of figure skating! I hope you feel better soon! I’m just one of thousands who are rooting for you, and we will support you no matter what.

This is definitely the best choice. I just hope he isn't feeling too upset about it. Rest and enjoy your birthday, Yuzu!

Totally... I had no clue the emotional roller coaster that awaited me when I came to read the last few pages of the chat. Yuzu is so multifaceted, and taking it all in is overwhelming in the best way. I guess we should view this as a warm up for the craziness that's about to happen at Helsinki?

Just predicted for Helsinki... at least I filled in Pairs and ID this time (totally based off world standings). I have learned to expect failure.

So... the short program happened... Guess who's failing this round?

I'm the one with nothing for pairs and ice dance. I will remember to fill in my name next time so I don't shame the overlord

Well, I failed Skate America And I may or may not have forgotten my nickname for Canada predictions. I've forgotten whether or not I forgot I submitted them a couple minutes ago, if that helps. The lesson here is don't trust me with anything.

So excited for this! Totally not doing pairs and ice dance because I don't watch those disciplines and I'm just as likely to select the correct people for gold as the people that end up with last.

Bold and brave costuming choices: Plunging V neckline, or tights Beautiful celestial being Yuzu (HYK, H&L, Etude etc) or Fierce competitor Yuzu (Origin, LGC, Seimei, etc) So hard to choose! I love them both!

This must take its rightful place in the murderface thread.

Well, it's over already. But on the bright side, we got the weird doll thing. On second thought, maybe not a bright side.

I feel like she wanted him to show how to do the 4A using the doll...

The SP looks amazing!

HERE WE GO

So I come home to this!!! I don't know what to think. Mostly I'm just trying to process everything.
