Imo Shady's best turn is better than Mablak's (no offence to anyone :D), I know its subjective but I strongly feel Shady's turn has the edge over the other one :)
Sure, at least it's not 1 point worse lol! Or mablak's is not 1 point better haha :P It is precise & accurate but no real extreme...

Yeh but I was only talking strictly in "1rst-and-2nd" comparison :)

btw, get your statik ass (what a joke :P) and comment on my nice new run in Alenic XD


EDIT: I apologise for not making my "criticism" more constructive but I'll try now: given that the more impressive bits (landing on small edge for example) were done by both, and the general skill level looked equal, I was left with the feeling that it was 1 turn that was slightly faster in speed (Mablak's) and 1 that had a bit more variety and looked prettier (Shady's)

I'm not trying to change anyone's decision, this is a discussion  :D

and yes, I do think Stat's run is eaaaaaasily better than KRD's, that little near-fall at the end cannot possibly account for the placement. I can see your point Franz but simply by comparing the 2 runs they would be the other way around in my list and I say this because one of the most important thing in warmer like this is flow and in this case the flow didnt stop since he roped straight back so grading down for that is a bit silly if this is the way freestyle is usually graded.

I'm not measuring using points but by simply comparing 1 turn with the other.

Again, remember that no one should be offended by this, I'm simply saying an opinion. We all thank franz because hosting and grading such contest is never easy :)

Mab had a nice run but I don't think Franz would have given me a 8.5 for that run  ;)

Can't criticize Franz though, its her opinion and I'm just glad he is hosting these.

Yes, 8.5 is a bit much to me. But then again I'm used to judging on the basis of 60 second turns, and it's pretty impossible for anyone to do a perfectly wide variety of moves in 45 seconds, so things may be just a little more weighted in terms of scoring variation.

Dub and I rope pretty similarly, the only thing that might've put me higher is my using a bit more of the map and avoiding repetition. Dub went back to the middle of the map just briefly, and spiked on the inside right island 3 different times, so that small amount of repetition may have taken him down .25 to .5 points. Not very noticeable, but I suppose it makes a much bigger difference when you don't have that full 60 seconds.

That's easy to say though. I could say starting your turn with 4 consecutive outlaws is repetitive. I used the middle right hole where you didn't go but you went in the middle left hole so its hard to say you used more of the map. I'm definitely not trying to argue my run was better, just, that different people see different things and judging is pretty damn hard  ;)

Ok people, I just suggest to enjoy warmings, because we all have different styles and it's like rating paintings. But if franz will make a list of things we have to do to get 10 points, then it'll be more sensible. I know he likes kicks, so 10 plz :D

Wow, I absolutely love that analogy!!

So f@#!ing true and why I always hated warmer contests in the past and why I always said a warmer can not be judged! I could never really express how I felt and why I thought that but you just nailed it!

I don't think Franz should or can state how to get a 10. A warmer challenge can't be a checklist, its a painting  ;D

Enjoying is no1 but from there on we must know wtf's going on haha :)

its like every sport with judges, even if u have a veeeerrry well-defined system of grading 10% is the judge's personal opinion. SO imagine in roping that is so free in space and lack of structure...

We can all agree its simply impossible to have totally subjective grades and could perhaps have 2 judges next time, BUT:

I'm very serious about the "small fall" thing. I think that as long as flow is maintained and chute barely opens the judge should help by allowing no point reduction, this way speed and risk is encouraged.

Nice to hear :D
I think this challenge needs a rating system so we all can vote for runs (and some mechanism to aviod haters and lovers ;D).

Judging a warmer is just too damn hard. Franz is doing the best he can with judging such an expressionistic scheme.

More judges with different styles judging the runs independently and coming up with an average could potentially help biases.

Again, I'm just glad Franz is hosting and bringing some life back to warmers.

Yea adding a 1 more judge would be great.

And for me still doing maybe less speedy runs but more accurate and sexy is betta, every one got their opinions, but still Franz is doing great job being objective, well done scoring
