At Russian nationals? Not likely given Trusova and Scherbakova will skate at senior nationals. The good thing is they can't go to Europeans or Worlds, but let's face it, they are likely to score higher if they land their quad combos. We just want her to be in the top three eligible skaters when all is said and done.

Trusova seems a pretty solid bet. Scherbakova seems less than one.

Kostornaia proved she could contend last season.

^^^ Woudnt she be minimum 3rd??

Samodurova is age eligible and could fight for a berth. I think her basics are clearly not as strong as Medvedeva's but Sofia has been squeezing every point she can out of her programs. Her score from SA is higher than Medvedeva's at Internationaux de France so I'd say that at least makes Sofia a legitimate contender.

This thread is a real hoot

Is there a King and Queen or is everybody on the team equal? I'm still trying to figure out all the nicknames and who is who but some of them are really hilarious (telenovela )


As for the Russian nationals I assume it could possibly come down to only one lady on the podium being age eligible and they'll potentially have to dig to the mid/bottom 10 to fill the other two spots

FAQ:

If I post in this thread, does that mean I'm on #TTW?
No, the skaters are the ones on the Team, not us. But if you may aspire to joining the Fans' Auxiliary.

Can I submit a nomination during the offseason? And if I do, will it be considered?
Yes, of course. But prepared for da bossman to shoot your suggestion down.

Who decides whether a skater's membership should be cancelled on grounds other than medaling or retirement?
Normally, da bossman, possibly with the advice of vice. But there's always a first time for everything.

Why is Alena Leonova on the List? She has a World Silver Medal.
There's a Perkova Rule, which is so obvious it doesn't need to be included in the Rules above, namely, a skater is on the Team if she (1) has only one World or Olympic Silver or Bronze Medal and no international gold medals, (2) has never won her home country's National Championship, and (3) is Perkova.

What about Elizaveta Tuktamysheva?
Da bossman has his delusions, and we humor him.

Do you have to be voidy to be on the Team?
No, but it helps. You do, however, have to be heartbreaking.

Is there an anti-American bias here?
Not at all. Several Americans are or have been on the team, e.g., Ross Miner, Richard Dornbush, Gracie Gold, and Mirai Nagasu.

Why isn't being French and hot one of the Qualities?
It's implicit in being French and hot that a skater has the listed Qualities in spades.

Sally Skater fell on her triple flip at last weekend's competition. Surely that makes her worthy of the Team.
In and of itself, falling once or even several times in one program does not warrant membership. Please reread the Criteria.

Why aren't skaters allowed on the Team before they skate Seniors at the international level?
We want to give them time to mature without putting too much pressure on them.

How do I get on the Fans' Auxiliary?
Not by asking or campaigning for it.

Is there a King and Queen, or is everybody equal?
Now that you mention it, we do have da bossman and vice.

Yes, you are obviously not getting it

SLAY NASTYA!!! (IT'S CAPS LOCK DAY!)

 

[SmallFairy]

I was away this weekend missing most of IDF and Russian cup and Kovtun's return and everything else, not sure if I can catch up. And on Thursday I'm off again, for my own comp this weekend. I rely on our thread to keep myself updated. What day is Nastya skating? Hopefully some of Tallin Trophy is going on while I'm killing my seven hour train ride. Train has wifi!

The one thing I didn't miss was PSOTY, but Eremenko is too young and Smirnov is not porny, so I'm not THAT into it. ? ?

 

[SmallFairy]

(Bossman/Dictator Daddy and I should battle out in our own #ttw PSOTY in here, and I'm telling you, Zach Donoghue ain't winning it!!!!)
