Play by Play Question

[skatingguy]

I'm looking at doing PBP for all the major international events of the season, but there will be events I can't do live. Just trying to get a sense of whether people would find it useful if the play-by-play is posted after the event concludes.

Events:
Grand Prix Series
Junior/Senior Grand Prix Final
European/Four Continents Championships
World Junior Championships
World Championships

Examples from last season's World Championships:

Any other comments, concerns, or questions please.

Of course they're most welcome during the live event, but if that's not possible, it's still nice to get them afterward. Thanks for asking.

I love pbp - if I can’t watch an event live, it’s still nice to have the pbp after the fact when I can watch and read how it all unfolded from FSU’s perspective.

I love live pbp and I do what quartz does - read it while catching up on the videos and enjoy it very much!

I wish more people would do pbp also for smaller competitions. Sometimes we hardly have anything. Even writing name of the skater and general impressions are better than nothing for people who cannot watch.

I voted live only - but I misunderstood your question. Any time is awesome!!

Love play by plays; always read them when following the events. Of course real time is the best, but delayed is also lovely as many of us have to watch on delay sometimes.
