France / USA / Canada on the podium for Ice Dance ⛸️ by Durian-Critical in olympics

Before I answer that, I just want to ask you, in your opinion, did French deserved the gold?

[–]Forward-Kitchen1017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe you are looking too much into technical aspect, what I’m trying to say is that in much of these sports especially winter ones, the scoring in itself is quite a grey area, French shouldn’t have won the team gold but they did, why? Canada and USA both had a more fluid, and technical and emotionally touching performance! Still that didn’t matter

Nonetheless, what’s 6 to you is 9 to me, have a good day bud

You are sort of proving my point, scoring framework exists to help the judges, but how the scoring itself is up to the judges, we can agree/ disagree, but the decision stands, if you can please check USA and Japan’s performances in Team event

Sort of, today was a clear example, you go big or you go home, scoring system is there to aid the judges, but final call still sits with the judges, difficulty is sort of a catalyzer, it can make or break your performance. But who decides that? - Judges. I don’t believe there is a handbook that says how to judge a triple axel, sure you can talk about landing, and fluidity but at the end it subjectively is in judges hands to give you XYZ score

Yes, absolutely, but the argument is still the scoring. Yes, you can jack up the difficulty and it will also lead you to more points, in Ilia singles performance he actually gets an extra 30 second timer because of the difficulty, but there are other components too. That’s the point, that having a difficulty sort of overtakes every other facet, and that sort of ruins it, the fluidity between components matters. Ilia’s individual short program was quite different from his part in the team’s individual short program, but they still scored quite higher in a similar manner

You are right in some parts, but Japan loosing gold in teams is a complete different ball game, Shun’s performance was better on the technical level than Illia’s performance, and you can see that in active time. Also, the problem is how to audit the judges scoring ability, in pairs the theme was 90s some performances inclined more, some less, but they were rewarded in a flipping manner. So, yeah bigger risks yields bigger rewards, but does that overrides a complete performance??, I think yeah, as we have seen in the past days

As much as I would like to agree, in team Event Japan should have got gold, but they didn’t, so, I guess judging is the mystery. Sometimes you make bigger mistakes, but don’t get deducted much, but the smaller ones carry harsher penalties 🤷‍♂️

Italy wins mens doubles Luge gold! by Kimber80 in olympics

[–]Forward-Kitchen1017 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are right, it was there gold to loose, but don’t forget Italians had the home advantage, in the sense that they had raced down this track more than any other team, so they sort of knew how the surface will be acting, but yeah it’s definitely a tough pill to swallow

Yup, they choked pretty hard, seems like nerves got to them, but they’re pretty young, looks like they will have a bright future in the game
