Does anyone know why deductions are taken out before calculating the % of perfection score? For example, at an event today, our score was 46.5/50 in level 1 (before 1.25 of deductions). So they took deductions out which lowered it to 45.25, which then gave us a 90.5%.
Say that they calculated our score to be 46.5/50, or 93%, and then took out the deduction. That would be 91.75%, which is a huge difference.
Part of my thinking is that 1 point in level 1 is really worth "2%". Then, when senior 4 goes and they also get docked 1.25, since their score is out of 82, their deduction isn't "worth" as much. I'm also thinking in terms of companies selecting teams for summit bids..to me, you should be scored on routine for % of perfection and take deductions off at the end. Has anyone run into this/have any thoughts? Just a heartbreaking day for our girl that stepped out of a knee stunt in an otherwise beautiful routine...
