Folks, your turbans are fine just the way they are. 👳‍♀️👳‍♂️
Maybe the one of vice and mine were too tigh and making the decisions :p

The National Weather Center forecast for tomorrow calls for fair skies and Softy Bossman, with a fitty percent chance of gratuituous additions. :yawn:
For pressman, I am an open book.

I have my campaign list prepared so I can immediately start lobbying for replacements for my favorites.
No new additions until JGP season starts, but I am pleased you are prepared for all to come.

After everyone bitching about Bunny Girl's new Britney bitch program in the program-thread, I find myself sitting here listening to Everytime, I mean...just because:love:

And maybe it's already here somewhere, but my friend wrote me Gabby Daleman is doing "It's all coming back to me" for her FS.
#loenatribute

Poor Lise Røsto Jensen, our international judge and Eurosport commentator. All of last season she complained about all Celine programs being "Just cheesy pop songs". She thought she could move on this season. Well girl, it's all coming back to you now:EVILLE:

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 you may aspire to joining the Fans' Auxiliary.

Can I submit a nomination during the offseason? And if I do, will it be considered?
You can always submit a nomination, but right now, da bossman is being :drama: and says he won't consider anything until the start of the Junior Grand Prix. And even if he were to consider it, he would probably shoot your suggestion down. It will help, however, to back up the nomination by citing to the Criteria, Rules, and Qualities.

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. :sneaky:

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 and Elena Radionova?
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.

What is the Pantheon?
The Pantheon is something we cooked up here in the #TTW Press Office to promote those skaters who have retired. Each member of the Pantheon must embody in his or her own way the essence of Team Trainwreck as determined by the pressman. :judge:

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

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 and Peter Partner fell on their side-by-side triple flips at last weekend's competition. Surely that makes them 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.

Is there a King and Queen, or is everybody equal?
No, but we do have da bossman and vice.

Why is Gabriella Papadakis the Cheerleader?
https://youtu.be/EAJOMCx2xbQ?t=412 (Unfortunately, this is currently geoblocked in the U.S.)

Is there any way that we can get sport psychological help for the talented skaters of Team Trainwreck?
And spoil all the fun?

Can someone clarify what this thread is for/about?
No.

What about the last few posts?
:lol: Go outside and play! ;)

Farewell Elena Radionova!
Entry: April 1st, 2018
Exodus: June 1st, 2019
Career highlights: Worlds 2015, 2nd; Euros 2015/2016, 2nd; Nationals 2015, 1st

After successful junior years it did not take long for you bursting into the senior scene. Nebelhorn 2013, bossman only came to see his one and true love, Miki, but you managed to catch him totally with your driven performance. We cannot thank you and your team enough for the programs of the 2015/16 season. Both, 'Jotem' and 'Titanic', will go down in history, just only for your performance level of them. Seeing you start to falter under the big pressure of the RUS Hunger Games and seeing you failing to make the olympic team did break our hearts. By this time, supported by the awesome flow of your dresses, your charisma and of course your hair , the bosses granted you entrance to the team by the Perkova-rule. To the great uproar of pressman you were alongside LaTuk the 2nd skater to be given this honour (after Han Yan). Unfortunately our energy and love was not enough to lift you back on the top.
@Hanna and bossman are still desperately hoping to see your 'Cinema Paradiso' FS at least once in competition :drama: And even if we'll never see you on competitive ice again Lil'Rose, one thing is for sure: we'll never let go!

До свидания!

Farewell Laurine Lecavelier!
Entry: January 31st, 2016
Exodus: June 1st, 2019
Career highlights: Euros 2017/2019, 5th; GP USA 2018, 5th

In best French tradition you caught our eyes with the mix of voidy and stunning programs. Your 'Sandy' incl. costume change will not be forgotten that soon. Whilst other programs were a stunning homage to :gallopin1-HoF-members, your silent and subtle short programs were breathtaking and world-class, if on.
You were a welocme change in times when MBM started to bore us all, unfortunately, in best #ttw manner (with your switch to Ade) you could not hold up to that momentum and lost us all again.
Failing to make it to the Olympics, worrisome taste in men, suicidal combos, awesome splats and weird crashes, you were a true member of #TeamTrainwreck.

Au revoir!

Farewell Laurence Fournier Beaudry/Nikolaj Sørensen!
Entry: October 8th, 2017
Exodus: June 1st, 2019
Career highlights: Four Continents 2019, 6th; Euros 2017, 7th; Worlds 2019, 10th

In our desperate search to increase our dance members on the train you were the obvious choice back in the days: great potential, gorgeous looks, ****ed-up-twizzles and a no chance of moving up the ranks with the non-existing power of a small fed. 'Woman' and 'Spanish Caravan' were a testimonial to your class. As hot and fierce you were on ice, your cheesy lovey-dovey off ice was too much even for Vice's hopeless romantic heart!
We were happy to see the switch to CAN going that smooth and loved to see you easily getting that 3rd spot and new consistency.
But in the end let's face reality. The gap TM2 has left behind was just too big for you to step into.

Farvel! Au revoir! Goodbye!
