That would add insult to injury.
Almost poetic

Awesome.Ignatov landing 4Lo and 4S-3A
I approve the new nickname-creation.And I bought tickets to the Large Calibre Weapon’s show
Ask and you shall receive.I would be more impressed with a 10k run footage though
It’s now 30 in SP and 51 in LPTES for Worlds? It's still 29, right? Or did the ISU raise it?
She had a 32.80 TES at 2019 Worlds. Please tell me this is a mistake!?

If she got 32.80 at the last Worlds, shouldn't things be fine if the minimum is 30? Or do last season's scores not count anymore?She had a 32.80 TES at 2019 Worlds. Please tell me this is a mistake!?

Ah ok, thanks! Somehow I got the impression from alchemy void's post that it was the SP that was the problem.She still has the SP TES minimum. It’s the one for FS - she had 50.83 at last Worlds and now the minimum is raised from 49 to 51.

Anyway, . Now she just needs to deliver a killer skate at Euros! But it sucks how they change it mid-season - what a sudden disappointment for all who now have to start chasing the minimums again. And it's not like there's much time left.
The ISU has said for several seasons that it might adjust the TES minimums up or down 45 days or more before a Championship. The fact that it hasn't done so previously does not make doing so now unfair.However, if the ISU decides they want/need to raise the minimums, they need to be clearly set and communicated AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON.
Changing the minimum requirement for Worlds two thirds of the way into the season is INSANE. Totally unfair to so many skaters. It effects how you train and prepare for the season. Absolutely ridiculous.

I doubt that anyone here would be complaining if the ISU had lowered the minimums instead of raising them.
I understand it's within their own rules but that doesn't mean I don't find it that some skaters now have to start the chasing job all over again and with only 6 weeks to spare. Had they lowered the minimums that would've been happy news for some skaters but sad for none. And I always want happy. Still, it would feel more fair if they announced the criteria at the beginning of the season and it couldn't be changed.The ISU has said for several seasons that it might adjust the TES minimums up or down 45 days or more before a Championship.

Is it based on the super high TES set by the 3As during the GP events? I mean who besides them are coming close to those scores, but they'd certainly raise the average.
She has until Monday, February 24, 2020 to get the FS minimum (Challenge Cup in The Hague would be the last comp. before the deadline).
It makes at least as much sense as some of the past and present inclusions on the #TTW Members' List.It makes no sense.
