: WHILE I FIGURE OUT THE PLACEMENTS,
EVERYONE GETS TO ASK THE JUDGES ANYTHING
THEY WANT...
Galileocan : Too Bloody Close....we'll need IBM on this one!
RONTANO : HA~
RONTANO : You mean a MAC!!
RONTANO : (Always controversy!)
JMacdon711 : Has the judging gone pretty much the same.
RONTANO : :))
Linda8894 : Go blue!!
Galileocan : Sorry
Dogonice : Quesion for LJohn .... only a *5.4* presentation
for 'Casablanca'?
TW Mowry : Guys I am going to Skate America so I plan on
getting more photos in the library once
SGskate : What do you want it to be?
Linda8894 : We are judging the Men's Olympic competition.
LJohn61755 : Ah, Familia !
LeeAnn 1 : Hello everyone!
LJohn61755 : Hi, Lee.
LeeAnn 1 : We still need a few people to show I think.
Linda8894 : Hi Lee Ann!!!
CanadaSk8 : Hi, Lee Ann
Faxel 1 : Would be nice to have a few more judges around
;)
LeeAnn 1 : Does anyone here want to judge? We had a last
minute cancelation.
LJohn61755 : Who's missing ?
RONTANO : HI!
Dogonice : Hi folks.
LeeAnn 1 : Monica, we'll wait until about 10 past to see
who shows up late.
SGskate : Was there a Men's competition? Was there a
figure skating Olympic competion. There was
not
Faxel 1 : Hi Dogonice!
Sesti : I'd love to, but I haven't seen the competition
since it aired. Sorry....
RONTANO : I'm ready.. (Except for ordinals.. I'm not a
mathmajor:))
Dogonice : Hi Faxel! Are we *ready*?
LJohn61755 : The "94 Olympics
LeeAnn 1 : We're waiting for Kate and Galileocan.
RONTANO : HI, dog and all.
Peltza : What is the topic of the day?
Linda8894 : Kate is always late.
Dogonice : Hi Ron!
LeeAnn 1 : Sklar cancelled. Does anyone here want to be a
judge for the 1994 Olympics, men's
competition.
SGskate : I repeat there was no figure skating in the 94
Olympics!
LJohn61755 : I'm telling you said that Linda.
Linda8894 : She knows!
Sesti : AOL is moving particularly slow today, at least
for me...give them a little time.
RONTANO : Boy.. The hard part was finding all my tapes
amoung my "hundreds'!! :))
LJohn61755 : SG where were you ? I just watched the tapes
this morning.
Linda8894 : I had the same problem.
LeeAnn 1 : It has been very slow for me too, Sesti.
SGskate : It's not Linda. In psychiatric terms this is
known as DENIAL.
LeeAnn 1 : Also, Joanna was supposed to host, but couldn't
so we have to give out the ordinals tonight.
Normally
LeeAnn 1 : it would be ideal if a host could figure out the
ordinals without everyone else seeing, but we
LeeAnn 1 : need two judges for that and we don't have that
many tonight.
CanadaSk8 : The hard part was trying to remember which
one of my friends had the tape.
Linda8894 : What SG???
RONTANO : (O.K. I'll fake it.. my numbers are pretty close,
but I know the Artistic wins a tie.)
Galileocan : Good evening all!
Dogonice : Question for clarification, LeeAnn ...
Faxel 1 : We've got ourselves another judge!

morning?
Sesti : Evening!
Galileocan : Here comes da judge
LJohn61755 : My 94 Olympics.
LeeAnn 1 : Hello Galileocan.
Linda8894 : Hi Gal.
Dogonice : We have to use the top 6 as determined by the
judges, not necessarily
DangerDerr : Hello! Sorry I was not here last week.
Dogonice : the top 6 *we* would have had, right?
Galileocan : The top six finishers overall at the end
(official standings)
RONTANO : Right..
SGskate : LJohn, what tapes did you watch this morning?

MANNER.
Linda8894 : Okay SGSkate, and I feel the same way.
Galileocan : technical first no?

Galileocan : that sounds right
LeeAnn 1 : THEN WE WILL HAVE SOMEONE BE THE ZAMBONI
DRIVER AND ENTERTAIN YOU ALL WHILE I FIGURE
OUT THE OVERALL
LeeAnn 1 : STANDING AFTER THE SHORT.
LeeAnn 1 : THEN WE WILL DO THE SAME FOR THE LONG.
LeeAnn 1 : THEN I WILL TELL YOU WHO WON.

elementary!
Dogonice : LeeAnn said Aleksei won -- just *accept it*. (:
RONTANO : Agreement at last:)))
NoHit : But if it's a tie, it goes to the one with the best
artistic marks.
LeeAnn 1 : NO, it's a 4-3 split vote.
Galileocan : What!???
NoHit : Fine with me.
Nijinska : Give it up, Urmanov rules as always! : )
Linda8894 : The referee's decision is final.
Dogonice : Aleksei had a better costume!!
LJohn61755 : Barf
JMacdon711 : How could Urmanov get the same Tech mark
that Elvis did?
NoHit : Aleksei rules!!!!!!
LeeAnn 1 : faxel, Dogonice, Linda, and LJohn all gave higher
marks to Urmanov.
RONTANO : I don't know.. Elviss short pants were
impressive:)
Nijinska : Aleksei *always* has the best costume!
CanadaSk8 : I think I'm going do puke all over my judges
sheet.
LeeAnn 1 : Galieocan, Canda, and Rontao all gave higher
marks to Stojko.

Sesti : I think he left...
JMacdon711 : Okay Linda, what's the deal with the 5th place
mark?
TW Mowry : Morry left ...
Faxel 1 : There's got to be a tie-breaker.
JMacdon711 : What's green and ice-skates?
Linda8894 : No, Lee I didnot have stoyko in f5th - 2 in long,
1 in short.
NoHit : Especially if he wears Oksana's swan costume.

LJohn61755 : I gave Urmanov a costume deduction. Pullease.
RONTANO : Yes, FORM and spins.. Alexi looses..
Dogonice : I gave Elvis one in the short.
Linda8894 : Alexi the frog???
JMacdon711 : He tried to wear the swan thing this year.
Sesti : Can Oksana wear Elvis' leather, then?
NoHit : No, no, no. Give him costume bonus points!
Sesti : :-)))
Nijinska : Why, are you jealous, LJohn?
LJohn61755 : for what, more lace than Oksana ?
CanadaSk8 : I'd rather see Surya in Elvis' leather.
Dogonice : Why not?
NoHit : Surya in leather.....??!!!
LJohn61755 : Only because he's taller than me.
SS8TOR : Boy, you got are quick tonight !!!
Galileocan : We need a recount here Lee Ann.......ITS A TIE!!!!
LINDA GAVE A 2ND PLACE ORDINAL!
Dogonice : I like that ....
Dogonice : Referee, one of the judges is nutting up, please
escort him from the building.
LeeAnn 1 : Wait - Linda was judge five, she didn't give him
a five. hang on.
CanadaSk8 : I htink we should say our score for Alexi and
Elvis, again.
RONTANO : LOL :))
LJohn61755 : Good Idea
TW Mowry : Well guys I have to go ... if you come up with
questions for an interview e-mail me.
Galileocan : No changes folks!
TW Mowry : I will do my best if I can get it.
Linda8894 : Let, Lee look over the scores again and maybe
she will need our ordinals again.
Sesti : 'Bye, TW!
LJohn61755 : Ok Morry, We'll let you know
RONTANO : Now maybe we can have a little compasion for
the judges we scrutinize so often:))
Galileocan : I am logging this chat so I will send it to the
CSFSA for analyzation
RONTANO : Bye Deb!
CanadaSk8 : Bye, Debbie
Dogonice : I will FAX Tamara Moskvina a copy as well!
RONTANO : Ha.. good idea Gal...
SS8TOR : Great pictures TW !
CanadaSk8 : That's what I want the CFSA to know what
nutcases we are.
Linda8894 : And the ASPCA as well.
NoHit : Any bitmap files??? :-)
TW Mowry : Thanks SS8TOR hopefully a couple will show up

one
LJohn61755 : Linda, ROTFWL
Linda8894 : Thank you!
NoHit : Listen, gotta run before AOL makes me go broke.
I gather that Alexei won?
RONTANO : NO!
Galileocan : Does anyone know if the ordinals are exactly
the same if there is a tie breaker?? Rules pls?
Dogonice : Yes!!!! Bye Nina!
RONTANO : Bye..
LeeAnn 1 : Doing it by ordianl counts, it is a tie. Doing it
by how many judges put them in a higher
ordianl,
CanadaSk8 : NO, NO, NO!!!!!!!!!!!
Linda8894 : Alexi needs the ASPCA to judge his funky
chicken move.
Nijinska : Bye NoHit!
LeeAnn 1 : Alexei won.
NoHit : Bye, Bye. Let me know what happens. Nina
(NoHit)
Galileocan : Ordinals are what determines the winner Lee
Ann..if there is no majority you go to 1st & 2nd
LJohn61755 : ANOTHER DEDUCTION !!!!!!
Dogonice : Yes!!! Bring out the flags and play the Russian
national anthem, please.
Nijinska : Aleksei wins here, and in real life, so everyone
better accept it! ; )
Galileocan : There still is no majority even when you go to
fourth place ordinals
CanadaSk8 : OH, Canada............
CanadaSk8 : Our home and Native land.........
Linda8894 : Tie breaker goes to tech in the short and
artistic in the long.
Faxel 1 : I haven't seen anything so close since the
Battle of the Brians.
RONTANO : Obviously we need professional councel:))
Galileocan : What I want to know is there some way that
breaks a tie when there are the same ordinals?
Dogonice : No, that shouldda been for '88.
LeeAnn 1 : The majority of the judges, gave Alexei a
higher ordianls than Stojko.
Linda8894 : Yes, psychiatry, for sure.
Dogonice : It was close like the Battle of the Brians. At
least the right man won *this time.*
Galileocan : How do you figure Lee Ann...Linda said her
ordinal for Stojko was (2)
Linda8894 : A tie in both reverts to the technical I do
believe.
Nijinska : : )))
LeeAnn 1 : After going how many ordinals of a first place,
second, etc...
LeeAnn 1 : each one got.
RONTANO : Just rub it in Dog.. You wait, Gal and I will get
this misunderstanding corrected!: ))
Galileocan : there are 3 1sts, 2 2nds, 1 3rd and 1 4th
LeeAnn 1 : Got and look and see who score the other
highest overall.
SS8TOR : Hey guys, I got a backstage in for the NSO
Concert On Ice this Sat.Practice time too *:-)
Galileocan : each one had exactly the same!!!!
LeeAnn 1 : Faxel gave Alexi a hight place thank Stojko.
RONTANO : I think Linda may be right.. What would that do
linda???
Linda8894 : I say that in case of a tie, they are both
disqualified.
LeeAnn 1 : No, I mean look at each judge's place of that
sktaer, tha the total ordianls.
Galileocan : Right on Linda!
Faxel 1 : I sure did.
CanadaSk8 : Yeah, and Kurt will win.
LJohn61755 : Linda, I like that idea. Make 'em re skate the
long program.
RONTANO : Gal it IS scarry.. we are agreeing tonight!
Galileocan : Well that's not how it is judged at the amateur
level Lee Ann
Linda8894 : I would have to review all the scores again.
Hang On.
LeeAnn 1 : So did Dogonice, Linda, and LJohn.
LeeAnn 1 : Even after a tie?
Sesti : Cool, SS8TOR!!! I still haven't managed to get
any contacts for "A Skating Romance"...
SS8TOR : I can't wait !! What a day it will be
Galileocan : EACH had 3 1sts......2 2nds.......1 3rd....and 1
4th.....after that...I dont know what to do
LeeAnn 1 : I know before a tie, we go to the ordianls
overall and count them up. But it's a tie, so that
doesn't
LeeAnn 1 : help us at all.
Linda8894 : I can't get back to the scores as I am not
logging, but if it is a tie, I believe that Elvis
Linda8894 : won the short, No?
LeeAnn 1 : Okay, since we don't know what to do, I'm
making up rules until we do. I'll write to teh
USFSA and see
Galileocan : Anyone have a rule book!!!
LeeAnn 1 : what we would official have to do.
SS8TOR : Sesti I'll give a rundown next week. want any
autographs ?
Linda8894 : What I am quoting is USFSA rules.
RONTANO : I've seen two people on a podium before.. It does
happen.. Yes. I do .. what to look for??
Dogonice : I have the 'Spectators Guide' -- it has a section
on scoring.
LeeAnn 1 : Until I get a response from them, Urmvanov
wins.
LeeAnn 1 : They tied in the short.
LJohn61755 : Yes, give me a minute.
Galileocan : Lets call it a tie!!!
Sesti : YES!!!!!!! That would be wonderful!!!!
RONTANO : It has to be.. (I think:))
LeeAnn 1 : OKAY! LET'S CALL IT A TIE AND LEAVE IT!
Galileocan : Then everyone is happy!!!
Galileocan : HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LeeAnn 1 : Fine, it's a tie! everyone is happy, then?
Faxel 1 : Judge 1 objects.

RONTANO: Hi, SS8tor.. Matt is fine!! (NO.. i'm not mad at all)
Faxel 1: Yea, something like that.
RONTANO: Silly@!
CanadaSk8: I think Alekis costume takes up too much room. They both don't
fit on the podium
Dogonice: How about '94 Dance? (:
RONTANO: Crazy, yes.
Linda8894: Loren, call me if you want to skate tomorrow night.

Sesti: Now, if only I could figure out a way backstage at "A Skating
Romance".....
CanadaSk8: Cling to someone who looks important.
Sesti: Either that, or pull my concert trick of hanging around the backstage
door until someone
Sesti: feels sorry for me....
CanadaSk8: That'll always work as well.
CanadaSk8: Well, this has just turned into the party room.
Sesti: Looking at my skating TV schedule...there's nothing on tap for this
weekend...you mean I'm
Sesti: stuck with Rams fever all weekend???
Dogonice: Would y'all like to help me with a project?
Sesti: Sure! What is it?
CanadaSk8: I don't think there is anything on for another two weeks.
Dogonice: I'm doing a tape comparing different interpretations of the same
music by different skaters.
Dogonice: Give me some ideas!
Dogonice: For example -- 'Dear Father' by Brian Orser, followed by Paul
Wylie.
CanadaSk8: You mean like if two people use the same music?
Faxel 1: Don't pick Firebird or Carmen, or there may not be enough tapes in
the world.
CanadaSk8: Oh, got it.
Sesti: How many people have done "Meditation"?
Dogonice: I have Oksana & Caryn for that one.
CanadaSk8: Or everyone and Nessun Dorma.
Dogonice: Yes, I'm trying to limit it to two -- preferably skaters with a
great deal of musicality.
