Two Chinese judges suspended by ISU

This is where we discuss figure skating and skating related items. How did you favourite skaters perform, and so on? However we never speculate on the private lives of skaters, like who might be going out with whom, because that is poison and is not tolerated here. A good guideline is that if it's not publicly announced, in the papers etc. then it's probably best to leave it alone. Is it a gray area? Then write to me and ask.

These pertain to "national bias" offenses at the 2018 Winter Olympics -
This one is for 1 year:

This is the scoring sheet for the men's free skate at the Olympics that relates to the suspension - a definite "outlier" in the scoring for Boyang Jin:

Wow - I wonder if China pulling out of hosting this year's GP events is a form of retaliation for these suspensions.....or am I just to diabolical?

You're not the first to speculate this...

I'm glad they are cracking down on this type of behaviour. Perhaps fewer will cheat if they see these publicized consequences. Thanks for the info.
