@misskarne let me ask you this- what would your bare minimum requirement be for the senior men? In ladies we can say 3+2, 3 individual jump, 2A, etc. because those are required to receive full credit for the SP jump elements, but what would you say is fair for the men? And ETA- like you did with the ladies, how would you increase it for the LP? ETA2- it was actually @gkelly with the suggestion. What would you say?
Ultimately, the men have the same requirements for the SP as the ladies. So I wouldn't object to a 3-2, 3, and 2A building the bare minimum. As @gkelly points out men are more likely to get harder jumps with lesser skating skills, so maybe pop it up a little. The TES being built off 3Lz-2T, 3F, and 2A is not a terrible idea, as long as the 25.10 is achievable for skaters who don't have those jumps but may have strengths in other areas.
Is this more the kind of field that people want to see? Less? Or should it really go to the potential 54 entries that started the whole debate?
Yes. The kind of field that you just noted is much fairer. I recognise most of those names from 4CC or Bs that I've watched and none of them would be a disgrace or a danger at Worlds. I don't see why they shouldn't have the opportunity as well.
