 Re: Official Summer Olympics 2008 Thread

 Re: Official Summer Olympics 2008 Thread
I've given up trying to understand the gymnastics scoring system. When it was the 10 as the highest value I could at least figure and sometimes guess the range of scores but now I have zero clue. It's the same way with figure skating. I can't stand either scoring systems.
