Congrats! Do you ever get to sleep?

ISU World Standings has been updated today. http://www.isuresults.com/ws/ws/wsmen.htm

 

Fun Fact: (Although it doesn't mean too much) Yuzu has been #1 in the World Standing since 2013-2014 :yes:

 

Shiro - is there a listing somewhere of World Standings by year? I do remember that Yuzuru hit #1 by end of 13/14 season But is there a way to look that up?

A :pooh: for you.

I'm actually rooting for Canada to win Team Gold. I'm not holding Patio against the rest of them... :devil:

 

And I've softened on him anyway. Like Yuzu, he keeps improving his skating. If not his public speaking :rofl2:

Gist of it if you don't want to read through the entire communication.

 

 

-World standing takes the 3 most recent seasons into their point total.

100% of the current (upcoming) season (2017/2018)

100% of the previous season (2016-17)

70% of the season before that (2015-16)

 

-Each skater gets 5 compeitions counted into each season total.

 

[table][tr][td]ISU World Championships (or) Olympic Winter Games (1)[/td] [td]ISU (Junior) Grand Prix and Final (2)[/td] [td]Selected International competition (2)[/td][/tr][tr][td]If a skater competed in both Worlds and Olympic, then whichever competition they placed highest on will be counted.[/td]

[td]The best TWO results from the GP series will be counted. If a skater makes it into the Final, then that will be counted along with whichever GP event they placed highest on.[/td] [td]Challenger series.[/td][/tr][/table]

 

that's perfect! thank you so much

Actually i do. And i work too. And i play games. And i do plenty of stuff besides being stuffed here all day so i am really surprised :embSwan:

I have nothing against Canada, I actually really like a lot of them - Kaetlyn & Gabby or V/M for example. I just like team Russia even more :pbow:

I like Team Russia too. May the best team win! (I guess I should be rooting for Team USA, but I fail at patriotism. Get a medal! Maybe not bronze! Woot.)

I'm listening to the latest PJ Kwong podcast with Takeshi Honda... God he speaks english so well ! And Dai speaks well english too !

Why can't Yuzu speak as well as them ? :cry: :cry: :cry:

Uhm... :rofl2:

Depending on the lineup, Satoko could very well beat whoever is the 2nd Russian lady in the team event, if she doesn't match against Evgenia.

He can't be bothered to practise it. :space:

I never understood the concept of patriotism in these cases... why does someone being born in the same country make people want to root for them? It's about their skating. If I don't like it, I don't like it.

 

And my fave team after Russia is actually China. So many cuties :pbow:

Well, in most cases it's taken for granted you root for your own compatriots... so I'm a great traitor here!
