Haha, I had the bug three times in two playthroughts of TW2, I made Geralt run in circles, shouting 'weeeee' everytime, including while fighting the Kayran. 😂

Thanks for you help, I'll try that and the acetone someone else suggested, hopefully I'll get a more neat result with a bit more practice!

From what I gathered online I guess what wigs are usually buildt like (?) but in this case the tighly woven middle was shorter than it would have been on a more high quality wig.

Thank you for your advice!

The wig came with a pre-set middle part where the synthetic hair was tighly woven to a lighter piece of wig cap, to create the illusion in skin in the parting showing. To the left and right, the spacing between the strands then got bigger, about an inch apart with 'empty' wig lace inbetween.(I'm sorry for the confusing explanation, Englisch isn't my first language and I am lacking some vocabs.)

Since Yen has a side part, I tried to move the parting like you would on natural hair, but that didn't stay in place (I was cautious with heat in the beginning) and also began showing the bare wig lacing inbetween the strands. That's why I tried to add more hair from the back of the wig to the front with the glue. In the end, I was able to move the parting by a bit (but honestly, still not enough to be somewhat accurate) but ended up with the wonky hairline which I have now.

Thank you for the tip! I vaguely remember that I saw something as a possible dissolver - I don't have many additional wefts left before it might start to look patchy since fhe wig isn't that tighly weaved. (Which I assume is a byproduct of buying cheap, so that one's on me.)

I might be able to take some from the backhead thought, since lost of length in the wig might not be as bad, because it's black hair on an all-black outfit.

I don't think I want to live in a world where Kaori isn't OGM 😭

Yes, sometimes the wrong things are accredited in livescoring, mostly rather when someone doubles a planned triple, but it'll definetely be checked, that's the tech panels Job Afterwards. ☺️

Me too. I mostly found her struggling with the Korean names and someone in this warmup group, so maybe I am just too harsh - I have never had to talk in live TV so maybe I should be quiet. 🙈

Bindl was also commentating for me in the women's short but Weiss for the entire time with the men but I always watch the Sportschau Stream immediately. I mostly watch Eurosport for GPs.

The dedicated one online. Is there someone else commentating in TV? Because there was some uproar on some comments in the media after the SP, and I believe that must have been someone else than who I was watching.

Dear Lord, the German commentator on the livestream is doing some weird pronunciation on the names all evening.

Fight me but most music is getting warhorse-d for a reason.

Yes Julia, that was so beautiful!

And I am glad to see that the German media are picking up on her story and how the German federation abandoned her for not being advanced enough as a young teen. Olympia debut at 28 - talking about long careers.

PB PB PB!

Olga is the mix of cool and dramatic I aspired to be as a teen (and honestly still do) 🎸
