Hey,girls,don't forget something very crucial.The championship is in JAPAN.The Japanese people just ADORE our sweethearts.They will not let judges to kick them out from the top places!

I do hope that they have a fair judgment in Japan!!!
I am still very confused at what happened in Warsaw!!
Perhaps with a different panel of judges!

Marina, I don´t know. I can´t understand how the judging system works! Sports where judging exists are always very given to controversy, I guess!

Per ISU Communication 1425, here are the judges who will judge the Compulsory Dance at Worlds: AUS, AZE, CAN, CHN, GER, ISR, ITA POL, RUS, UKR, USA, UZB. There are 4 judges from former SSRs, 2 from the Far East/Australia, 2 from North America, 2 from Western Europe and 2 from Eastern Europe.

For the OD , these judges will be added: BUL, CZE, JPN, LTU plus 8 judges selected at random from the CD judges.
For the FD 12 judges from all will be drawn (lets hope the bulgarian one plus not so many counties from the former soviet union)
It looks to me as if А&М are likely to have a more favorable panel than the Euros, of course all depends from their performance and the draw of the judges..
Looking at the judges for the CD i think Dom/S will be first, at the OD- A&M....and we'll se the draw for the FD...
Lets hope they have more luck this time, they deserve it

Lanadd, what you say about the judges for WORLDS is very interesting!
I really don't know what to say....I only hope Albie and Maxim are judged fairly again!

I know! So much depends on tiny details!
But, At least I think thAT IT WILL BE MOORE thrilling than in Warsaw!
Those five points behinD after the OD, let us know that Albie and Max were out of the gold! I hope in Japan it will be differenT1

Yes unfortunately it doesn't depend only from their performances....i have never paid attention to who is judging before, but after the europeans i believe the scores depend not only from the execution of the dance but also at least 40% from who is judging
