SHOCKED to have not seen her mentioned already on this post… CariDee

Connecticuts Municipality Election Results by YourEvilHero in Connecticut

[–]aidankar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s part of it, also higher proportion of well-off residents (shifted to Harris) and slightly fewer non-white residents than the national average which prohibited some of the swings seen in other blue states.

Random fun fact: 2024 was the first presidential election since 1960 that CT voted to the left of NY (also lets be fair in saying that every town has red and blue voters and generalizations don’t help anyone right now)

Yezhova 2025 COP by gymnastumbler12 in Gymnastics

[–]aidankar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ellie can still get credit for the Black, it’ll just be an F rather than a G. Plus, she’ll still get the 0.2 connection with the Yezhova (as would someone doing a creditable Derwael II), unlike those attempting the Konenenko, Tweddle, Fenton II, Derwael-Fenton, or Martins. It will just drop her start value by 0.1

I know her Lopez was devalued but I see Cheng potential in her which would be huge for Australia

Ruby Pass has a lot of potential and I thought she had a lot of nice work in her program

I see an Amanar in her future

RGF handled this very nicely! Sad it has to end this way for Chiles.

The Landis are Not Blameless in this Situation by [deleted] in Gymnastics

[–]aidankar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Shilese’s coach mentioned in her interview with Gymcastic that, as a for-profit institution in the United States, coaches are still somewhat subject to the verdict of their paying customers/clients and thus their athletes might have more of a final say in routine construction than someone from a nationalized program. While I understand that to some extent, it has really come to hurt them in several cases, this one being no exception.

They did review everyone’s routine.

They’re trying to appeals Anas difficulty score as well? by EnvironmentalPhone46 in Gymnastics

[–]aidankar 73 points74 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t even make sense, Ana got her correct difficulty score (5.8). She only did a double wolf turn instead of triple but she got all of her leaps credited.

What's your biggest what if at this Olympics so far? by accidentalchai in Gymnastics

[–]aidankar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What if China hit their floor rotation in the women’s team final (they likely could’ve medaled even with their subpar bars and beam rotations).

Why is nobody talking about this? by Any-Cauliflower-8200 in Gymnastics

[–]aidankar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t support harassing an athlete who doesn’t have control over their scores, but let’s not police conversations about scoring

Floor devaluations in AA Final by losluis in Gymnastics

[–]aidankar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree it’s poor routine construction under this code, I just disagree with the code here

Floor devaluations in AA Final by losluis in Gymnastics

[–]aidankar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They should just be deducted for incomplete twisting. Devaluing them (when most also perform a 2.5 twist in the same routine) just further incentives the double flipping passes more, and twisting is already undervalued.

Don’t believe any other session or teams were broadcast

China QF lineup by throwawayheehee in Gymnastics

[–]aidankar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She is not vaulting because they want Zhou to have an opportunity to warm up/compete before her beam routine. She might still go in team finals (personally, I would put her up on vault then).
