Thank you very much!!

I live in Italy, so altought the free dance was broadcasted live on our national tv network, it didn'it include the cute moments like the OT4 hug, or when Scott tried to fool Tessa saying that they were in second place!!

thank you very much again!!

@moncoeur: but in the Mahler's ending pose, Scott only has one knee on the ice, right? (Sorry, I've never seen it live)

About the "we're in second": yes, it's in NBC's freedance video. The funny thing is the RDS reporter was still there with her micro trying to interview them!

Agreed. I thought it was explained that since Scott only has 1 knee on the ice it's okay.

It seems like we have gone through T&S threads faster in the off season right now than when they were competing.

Very true, AD Ironic, in'it?

Guys. Are you ready for this? I had a dream about Tessa and Scott!! A good one, I might add.
I will tell it in story form.

They were in a big skating arena about to unveil their new FD, and I was in the front row right next to the little area where they were standing next to Marina and Igor. There was something causing a bit of a ruckus near them; I couldn't see what it was, but Marina was clearly frazzled. Finally, she looked up straight at me and told me to come down there, she had a job for me (ha. I'm currently job searching...). When I got there, I found out what was causing such a commotion: penguins. As in, live penguins. From Antarctica. They were being really rowdy and obnoxious, and Igor struggled to keep them from escaping as he gave Tessa & Scott a pep talk. T&S were trying to be serious, but kept having to smother giggles because the penguins were so dang cute.

So, Marina told me that I just had to make sure the penguins didn't run away before the free dance. I didn't think it was weird, but I do recall thinking that my schooling had not prepared me for this. But, I held on to them (T & S kept looking over and chuckling) until the FD started, which was skated to...wait for it...

Jolly Holiday from Mary Poppins, complete with these costumes:

and the penguins, which started to dance as soon as the music started. Of course.
I don't really remember the program, but when it was over, the judges had a little huddle, and then the head judge stood to deliver the results. At the end, she said, "We have deducted 3 points for the illegal use of live animals. However, we have awarded the two of you 8 bonus points for being awesome. That is all."

(At this point, I realized that several of the judges were characters from Chuck. At the mention of the word "awesome," Devon high-fived General Beckman and said, "Indeed."
Tessa & Scott + Mary Poppins + Chuck = best.dream.ever.)

Anyway, I usually don't remember dreams, and just had to tell y'all that before I forgot it!!

I asked the cognoscenti at FSUniverse this exact question recently and you're right. Here's the rule (as proposed--not final yet):

So I asked about the Mahler final pose:

And this is the answer I got from Tammi:

We'll see what the final rules say in a couple of weeks.

I think they are sort of disrespectful to fans by exploiting our gullibility for their own b.s. games, because some of the ploys are a little insulting in their transparency. From my experience and perspective. These people have no expectations of fans. Their facebooks are set up with the lowest common denominator fan in mind. There's no way to rely on only "considerate" fans. It's common sense. It's great to be respectful but the irony is these Facebook "drops" are geared to fans who grab it and put it out there. They don't want that type of respect. They want the message out.

When stuff surfaces - like the Jessica video, or "discussion worthy" photos, it's pointless for me, anyway, to go through the motions of "discretion" or "respect" when I know why that stuff was done in the first place. I know what I'm talking about, I have experience with this type of image "message" b.s. and I know it when I see it. Whenever certain, let's say "enlightening" material is on facebook for an average creeping fan (nobody has done anything like hack or fraud) -- there's a reason, even if it's expedient to pretend.

I shrink from playing the game of "I'm going to pretend they don't know we're creeping -- we came across these photos without them realizing that we could find them, and ohh wee, look here, maybe we better keep it down low." I know what they're doing. Their strategems are pretty amateur but they're counting on the inexperience, naivete and credulity of fans not to know what this is all about - which is it's all intentional.

The why of it all, what's the reality, the agenda- that's speculation, and actual information is needed to reach an accurate conclusion. But they ARE spinning us. The Scott and Jessica clip is nonsense -- dragging that girl's butt over the barrier when the maintenance staff is five seconds from shutting down the venue practically, in some feeble attempt to make it look like she's pulled from the crowd, when practically every skater and their cousin has gotten in line down there first the normal way, and she could have had dinner and changed her clothes in the time she's spent waiting to get helped over, and we're not supposed to notice these things.

Got no problem with her or the people in question, and actually, I'm a bit confused about the cautions against bashing her and others when nobody has. This is a shipper board. Naturally there will be if people see things that disappoint their shipper side. However, I haven't seen anybody saying anything that would make a warning on not bashing necessary. But,if I know what I'm looking at, no harm in saying so. JMO.
