More talk like this and the I'll see to it that the ladies TTW roster is filled exclusively with Austrian and British ladies.

As Speaker of the Trainwreck House, I approve this message!

Who was the caller at the ladies free at CoC?

Seems like everybody had a minimum of 3 <, and some had even more.......

I’m calling him the “underrotations fairy” The caller was pretty harsh at IdF too, especially for Kaori

And LaTuk is not seriously heartbreaking these days. (Sorry if I now stepped on someone’s toes...) ( )

LEAVE LIZA ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mad for Skating]

LEAVE LIZA ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amen!
I thought she deserved silver here tbh, apologies to any Satoko fans in this thread.

 

[pinky166]

Han Yan is back

That is all!

Oh and Orzel proved he belongs here (except his actual skating probably isn’t good enough yet, maybe it will get better in the future).

Pulkinen needs to be added to the roster y’all. Kelowna was a fluke. Back to usual here unfortunately.

@alchemy void
GP RUS, CS POL, Tallinn Trophy and RC IV.

A good vice will provide a detailed schedule again, won't he?

 

[Jeschke]

Folks, time to be strong.
No Perkova listed in the official entries for RC IV.
So no nationals.
End of an era.

(((@alchemy void )))
The deulsional amongst us might hope for a last minute GP appearance though.

And considering the weak fields, she could have qualified.

Is it too late for Perkova to skate for Kazakhstan?

#threespotsatworlds
#threespotsat4ccs

Or even the Czech Republic?

We needed this statement pinky-style!
Thank you!

Who would have thought, I needed that hashtag again after Zhang?

If Perkova and Gold don't do their respective nationals will we hold a memorial service on the train? They deserve a nice send off as we kick them off somewhere in the desert or Siberia as the case may be. A review of the drunken pirate, the Bercy pigeon, last season's gasp at NHK, Gold's firebird egg laying, the tossing of the team jacket in the trash....so many memories.

Im all for this lovely euthanasia for these 2 iconic TTW members.

I'm really curious as to what her plans/thought process are here. I mean, she's clearly in decent enough form to qualify to nationals via the Russian Cup events, but elected not to.

The only logical conclusion is that she knows something we don't, and will somehow be on that nationals roster. There are still two Grand Prix events left, just sayin'.

Rumor has it there will be significant changes to the roster after GP series concludes.

A small spoiler alert: Leonova stays.

I fear the Bercy pigeon has relocated to St. Petersburg. It's probably playing with that puppy right now.

I'll get it up by Wednesday.

A preliminary look at CS POL shows that the schedule works perfectly with my life, ending with ladies on Sunday, which is obviously the most important consideration here.

Bella!

 

[aftershocks]

Outside of dance (which was great), IdF was kind of and .... So many WTF programs (including from people on the podiums , --actually, the majority of the podiums) #TTW indeed

I guess it must be those sophomore 'next quad' blues.

How much longer can we leave her on the train before we send her to the Hall of Fame?

Long!

Nobody puts Perkova in the corner

 

[rfisher]

They say that breaking up is hard to do
Now I know
I know that it's true
Don't say that this is the end
Instead of breaking up I wish that we were making up again
I beg of you don't say goodbye
Can't we give our love another try?
Come on, baby, let's start anew
'Cause breaking up is hard to do

 

[Vagabond]

Stay
Just a little bit longer
Please, please, please, please, please
Tell me you're going to

Now, your daddy don't mind
And your mommy don't mind
If we have another dance
Just one more
One more time

Oh, won't you stay
Just a little bit longer
Please let me hear
You say that you will​

 

[Jeschke]

Folks, I proudly present: Sofia Buzaeva / Nikita Rakhmanin

• Perkova-inspired costume and hairdo
• Fake-tattoo-sleeves for him
• weird MESS in steps after collision
• awesome reaction by her to the fall
• a shirt unbuttoning itself during death spiral and final spin.

Enjoy!

TTW administration as usual having no credibility with their own rules..

Boooooring

 

[Dobre]

I see that Popova & Mozgov are primed to miss the Season's Best top 24 list by a bit for the umpteenth year in a row. Currently sitting in 25th place and not on the current list for Golden Spin. I feel like the Golden Spin entry list is rather a rough draft--possibly even full of placeholders--as the Russian Fed doesn't yet know how at least three mid-range teams will do in their final GPs or for sure if Stepanova & Bukin will make the Final, but Popova & Mozgov--merrily holding down the top spot on the alternate list since June--are nonetheless primed.

P&M are also on the bubble in 24th for the World Standings at the moment. (Sure to change, but too early to attempt the math on that at this point).

I'm curious to see who you WOULD put on TTW, instead of rather consistently bitching about who shouldn't be on the team.

For me at least, the fun and engagement of the TTW threads and community has long eclipsed the semantics of who is or isn't on the team.

I keep a spreadsheet of the WS for after 2017-18 is dropped and 2018-19 goes down to 70%. Might have some errors, but after CoC I have them 20th. If they don't earn any more points, then only 4 teams can pass them to keep them top 24. The 5 teams right behind them are: McNamara/Carpenter (NHK, Golden Spin, maybe 4CCs+Worlds), Lajoie/Lagha (CoR, maybe 4CCs+Worlds), Koch/Nuchtern (Golden Spin, maybe Euros/Worlds?), Nguyen/Kolesnik (JGPF, JW), Tessari/Fioretti (CoR, Golden Spin, Euros/Worlds ?), Evdokimova/Bazin (Warsaw, Golden Spin).

All of those teams are within less than 250 points of P/M. Those teams won't all earn points at all their events, so they may not all pass P/M, though some should. Reed/Ambrulevicius are ~300 points behind with CoR, Euros, and Worlds.

So I do feel like there's a pretty good chance they'll fall out of the top 24 in WS if they don't do any more international events.
