All-Star Worlds Order Of Performance

[BlueCat]

I'm not sure how many times a team would need to perform to get an accurate ranking, but 4 might work. To me you would have the AL teams compete and take top 10. The remaining teams would then compete and you take that top 10. Then those teams compete day 1 and day 2 with a 50/50 average. I may be simplifying it a bit. I still think the paid bid teams should not have to compete in AL division. I cannot imagine how long it would take to get through all the teams if we didn't do it that way. At this point, we ALREADY divide the AL teams into Division A/Division B which I have so many issues with.
On another note, I have always wondered why Worlds only takes the scores from finals. Seems contradictory to require teams to compete two times and take the average to obtain a bid, but at the actual competition, they only compete 1 time. Maybe I am missing something.

Worlds has a different scoring system, different rules ("no hugging"), different (less) warmup time, completely different venue (baseball field), different use of geography to determine finals eligibility, and they are the only one to ONLY use the last performance for rankings. I can think of no other sport where the World Championship is determined in such a different way than how you normally compete.

I'm thinking about periscope since I'll be at worlds but I've never done it before. I'm not watching the entire day but I will be there for some small all girl and small coed. Large all girl and coed.

This example doesn't apply to the U.S., but for artistic gymnastics in Russia, the individual all-around final rankings are based on tallying up scores from both qualifications and finals. However, at the World Championship/Olympic level, your scores are just based on how you perform during finals given that you've made it past qualifications of course.

Apparently Australians can't buy the feed due to music???

As long as someone is willing to periscope large senior, large coed, Brandon, and Peach I'll be happy

I'm a periscope newbie. Other than having the app, how do I find people periscoping Worlds?

Last year, there were posts here specifically for periscope feeds. The links were updated as they changed

Not sure where to post this but Cheer Athletics Plano is having a live world showoff right now on their Facebook page!

I wonder if you can do the same with chromecast.

Certain apps will let you do it with Chromecqst like Netflix if you're talking about using a phone or iPad. Honestly, if you download the Google chrome app I believe it should work the same as if it's a computer.

hoping someone will periscope the stream for me.. I cant afford the stream this year i hate having no money...

 

[renaa_rooo]

Just saw that the live stream will only be available in three countries out of the how many that are being represented at worlds? I don't understand how companies can be surprised or upset about people periscoping the feed when you only make it available to a small portion of people.

Anyone know when doors open on Saturday morning? Trying to figure out what time to be there to get a seat for LAG.

Bummed about the stream moving to Flo. Just bought a Roku yesterday and still hate Flo after the way they handled the McKayla Maroney pics a couple years ago. I really don't want to support that kind of business.

What did they do to McKayla Maroney?

This might be a very stupid question, but anyways-

Is the live stream able to be played back? I'll be gone all Saturday for work but I'd consider purchasing the stream if when I got home Saturday night, I could watch the teams I missed. Anyone know if it works like that?

According to the website, "(Archives will be available to FloPRO subscribers immediately after the event.)" I'm not sure if that's after the entire event or after a team performs.

What did they do to McKayla Maroney?

When all of those nude pics came out a couple years ago they ran an article about her involvement in it. With links to the MM pics, which then linked to all of the other celebs' pics. Despite the fact that she was possibly underage and the majority of their audience is underage. Then when everyone freaked out about it the owner went on a rant refusing to take the links down and said it was their job to report gymnastics news. MM's lawyers finally got them down a few weeks later, but the damage was done. Flo was basically blacklisted by USAG and a lot of people (myself included obviously) became anti Flo. Sorry but I can't support a company that sees nothing wrong with providing pornographic images to children. I would have bought the stream from USASF this year, but now I'll be hoping for Periscope.
