Don’t get me wrong, I do think unfair scores should be pointed out so as to make figure skating, a sport with a long history of biased judging, a fairer sport. But it makes me sad because when it comes to Yuzu, no one says anything... :’( I tend to think it is better if a sort of media alert doesn't start with him, but with a more collective preoccupation, otherwise it would be dismissed as a "fanyu fantasy". I really wish a good deal of a technical scoring to be done automatically in a near future, and I doubt ISU would do it by themselves, they "need" pressure, by media AND Olympic Committee (who from time to time demand them to prove figure skating is a sport, with objective judgement, and who may become less lenient now that technical means could be found, and have indeed been found for gymnastics).

Does anyone know how I'd even get a ticket for that (when they go on sale)? Is it a lottery thing? Probable that Japan won't let me travel into the country, even two months from now, but I'm grasping at anything. I presume Yuzu will be skating, but I also haven't a clue if he would. The internet lottery is open from 10:00 on November 12th to 23:00 on 16th Here you can find some information: Spoiler He will definitely announce his desicion soon. The corona situation has unfortunately not improved and then 50 % of the audience in the arena .... I have not a good feeling. I miss Yuzu’s skating , but of course health always comes first.

I wish, he could show us a video from training. Link to comment

FlyingCamel Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I love how his favourite word is “challenge”! Usually challenges are things that scare people and things that people back down from, but for him it’s his favourite! I wonder why light blue though? Is that his favourite colour? Come to think of it I don’t actually know what his favourite colour is, is it gold?? Link to comment
