After last night's many MANY shafts with judging I couldn't help but wonder if someone was being 'urged' to be stricter with them than the Chinese and I'm so glad that they won despite the low scores they were getting.

I think that China has some shady dealings and I wouldn't be surprised if they fudged some ages... yet again... for themselves. Did you see how sickly the one girl that won broze looked!?

oh yeah, she was! I think the scoring has a lot of work to do
