The problem these days is the concentration. Smart phones, computers, TV ect. shortens the attention span. I always had this problem, for example i like to read books, but i'm soooo slow in reading, bc i can't stay focused for more than 5 minutes. That's why i only watch my favorites, when it comes to sport, bc i'm easily bored :sad46:
Yeah, but c'mon even the LP lasts only 4 minutes. It's not the same as having to sit through 1.5 hours of a uni class (at least this is how long classes/lectures are at uni o er here) or through 3 hours of a Lord of the Rings movie.
Unless we're talking the entire event? Then I'm like many people here, 2-3 groups depending on the discipline. That's at worlds, where I know skaters and have many favorites. At junior gp that's running right now, I usually watch just one group of the FS, and cherry-pick favorites for the SP (and then I always have to go back to watch the ones who scored unexpectedly well, my system's not perfect. )
Personally, regarding the LP, I find them a bit too long in about 50-60 % of cases. Basically, really good programs can hold my attention. I don't mind the plans to shorten the Men's program by, uhhh, 30 secs was it? On the other hand, I find the SP usually a bit too short. I very often get the feeling of disappointment that it's already over. A 1'30" program would be unbearable to me, it would always leave me unsatisfied.
