I cannot for the life of me remember how Sofia's SP looks 
I remember the FS so much, perhaps because it's the last thing I saw and I've seen it multiple times this season, but whatever. Not gonna look it up, wanna be surprised
May all the ladies be clean, and may Alina have a showing like at Japan Open [me after watching it: :gclap:], and may Zhenya medal, because those 2 are my biggest wishes

Russian ladies didn't come to play. Glad all three skated well, and hopefully they can do it even better in the free! (Also, Alina winning would be a very welcome confidence boost for her).

Technically, no. Actually, yes. She is Muscovite since birth and has dual citizenship. She doesn't speak Kazakh language (she's only half Kazakh and her family's language at home is Russian) Btw I firmly believe Eteriya / Eteristan should participate at ISU competions as a separate nation.

We need flag and anthem of Eteristan

I think the ladies had a good showing, and they're in a good position for the FS.

I thought people will miss Liza, Maria or Stanislava, but really you missed Eteri? That's some turn...
Good luck to all of the Russian ladies at Worlds!
May Sofia continue her incredible season with another first - her first world championships! She's got the momentum and the consistency, so "all" she needs to do is trust in herself and technique. She can do it!
May Evgenia continue her upswing that she started with her FS at Russian Nationals. With her new combinations and her new coaches, she is hungry to redeem herself after a disappointing season. The SP will be key for it, but she can do it!
May Alina find the same mentality that she had at the Olympics / Nebelhorn Trophy / Japan Open, where she had clean skates. She's got so much talent and potential and just needs to put it all together. This is her year to win Worlds

That is hysterical Ramed.
Eteri would like it too. More Russian girls will switch to dual citizenship. Why not? Girls 6 to 10 are really good but buried beneath the top girls with no escape.
Well done Alina. I only wish the score beat her Olympic SP score. But a fine score none the less.
How did Sofia and Zhenya do?

Eteriya/Eterissiya; Eteristan indicates a turkish country, not russian.

The flag can be that photo of Alyona throwing her jacket at Eteri. The anthem can be a remix of Masaru barking.
Zhenya is 4th after a clean-ish program (UR on the combination). Sofia is 9th with a clean program.
Anything can happen in the long. All top 11 has a chance to medal.

Honestly I think Alina is in perfect place to win, considering that Rika is not skating in the last group and the judges are giving such scores. It's hers to lose. May she have calm thoughts surrounding her!
I think Alina's biggest threat will come from her own team mate - Tursynbaeva. Sort of a da capo of last year's Tutberidze-fight at the Olympics.
So happy for Alina!! Also proud of Evgenia for doing so well and showing she is back. The FS is still anyone’s to win esp given Rika’s two 3As and Lilbet’s 4S, but I wish for all the ladies(esp Alina, Evgenia and Sofia) to skate cleanly again. I am glad I have so many wonderful skates to watch tonight when I get off work!

If you had said this yesterday, I would've disagreed, but considering how Elizabet magically went from max70 the whole season (or career even) to 75 today, I can definitely see thisthe happening.
At this point I predict:
1/2 Alina/Elizabet
3/4/5 Rika/Kaori/Evgenia
and these in any order

So we could have 3 russian spots + 3 Eteristan spots xD

How could SS be 9th with a clean program? No respect for euro champ.
Top 11 can medal? Really?
What are prospects for Russia keeping 3 spots? I would think good.

I think as long as Alina skates relatively clean she's got this on PCS. Both Alina's and Elizabet's TES in the FS is at round about 80 if they hit. So far, Alina still has the PCS advantage and the lead from the SP. Lilbet is her biggest threat though, I agree.
