THE OLYMPIC AFTERMATH: GRUMBLES AND COMPLAINTS PT 1

The Olympics finished quite a while ago but many gymnastics bloggers, fans and everyone in the sport has many grumbles and complaints from the olympics and rules we want changed. Not complaints like Vanessa Ferrari's leos, which could definitely be cleaned up but like the 2-per country rule, dah, I hate saying that!

1. 2-PER COUNTRY RULE

Underline it, put it bold, throw it to FIG, they will not buy it! On numerous occasions, I have e-mailed & tweeted them but still no response. This rule is actually crazy town. Everyone was distraught about Jordyn but the best 2 girls obviously got through because Gabby scored 3 tenths higher than Jordyn but it would've been a better battle.

2011 Worlds (Jo)               2012 Olympics (Gabby)

VT: 15.716                              15.966

UB:  13.60                               15.733

BB: 15.266                              15.500

FX: 14.800                              15.033

----------                                  ------------
59.382                                      62.232



2. TIE BREAKER

Mention tiebreaker to me and the consequences will be HUGE! This is the part of gymnastics I hate. Take Alexandra Raisman, she scored 59.966 so did Aliya Mustafina but Aliya got the credit of bronze. UNFAIR! Other examples include Aliya Mustafina & Beth Tweddle in floor qualifications and that is super horrible considering she is from the home nation, Alexandra Raisman and Catalina Ponor for bronze on beam for .3 in execution & Musty and Ferrari. 
I'm just warning you, if the rule isn't changed for next years worlds, bitches will be cut. 

3. TIM & ELFI BE GONE

I hate tim and elfi and they're getting on a little bit so I say, GOOD RIDDANCE 

thats it for part 1 

TWITTER ACCOUNT UP FOR GRABS

my newly opened account @TwiggysBun has become very popular amongst gymnastic tweeters but i've decided to change it into someone elses hands as I am not quite sure what to tweet on it. However, I will still check and occasionally tweet on it but it's more permanent for someone else.

If your interested then e-mail us; the.world.gymnast1@gmail.com, tweet me and direct message me on @theworldgymnast

thank you. 

THE YEARLY LUL

Usually this time every year, there is a massive lul in gymnastics feed. Bloggers can scrap a mere amount of news into the blogs due to the lack in competitions so I just wanted to tell you that the reason I haven't been blogging lately is that reason. This Olympics was incredible though. So, I might be tweeting a little but more so you can follow @theworldgymnast!

on the petition, we have reached 546 supporters but FIG haven't even responded so I'm taking that as a No!

so just a brief re-cap, 

bye x
