198.1625 wins over 198.0750 is wild

Im not a gymnastics person but to decide a who gets a title and who dont by this close of a margin is dumb. 198.07 to 198.16 and not to mention is decided by judges(humans) is stupid. Who decided their decisions dont have error? LSU's whole season of work, money, injuries, families making arrangements and everything that goes into a gymnastics season to be told at the end you lost by this margin is wild. You both tied with 198pts but 1/100th(it was less than that) of a point difference is how you lose. Ill never buy that.
Congrats Lady Tigers! You are champs in my book.

To be taken seriously, go to computer scoring
Human element sucks

I dont know what that means but the margin to be that close and your season falls short by this margin is a slap in the face of the one's who lost considering the work that was done to get there. It wasnt 197 to 198...it was 198 a piece but at different values not even enough to round either score to the next higher value or lower. They each scored 198 imo. Sad for the lady Tigers. It should have been a tie and co champs.

How would a computer score gymnastics?

If a computer can tell me how fast I swing a golf club, how fast the ball spins in the air, how high it goes in the air, and how far the ball went both in the air and total with ground rolling, then a computer can and should be able to judge gymnastics.

So what stats would you like to see that are incorporated? Legitimate question because I don’t watch gymnastics, but I seems like something that would be hard to have a computer judge. Also, none of those things that you just listed goes into the scoring in golf, it’s just metrics that every sport has.

No idea - they can do everything else

Fairly certain a computer could judge whether or not elbows, arms, and toes are all where they need to be at certain parts of routines, and can determine if wobbles occur, etc..

I never claimed they do. I think you missed my point that computers are totally capable of scoring gymnastics routines.

Eh I mean I guess so… seems like to gymnasts would need to be hooks up to all kinds of sensors for something like that. I think you’re really oversimplifying this.

Yeah I’m just not sure I agree with it. I know technology can give you all types of stats, but that’s not really relevant because they have nothing to do with the scoring. Do you have any other examples of sports that have switched from judges to computers for scoring purposes?

Stick your beam landings like they stuck their bars landings and it’s not even close. Stop making excuses about scoring and this or that. We choked on the landings off beam. The easiest landing in the sport. Every beam routine outside the fall was good enough to win going away. Then we forgot to land. Period need of subject.
Only complaint is the stall job the judges pulled after the first routine that had our girl standing there for 7 minutes icing her. Then she falls as soon as she touches the beam.

That's completely fair.

Do you have any other examples of sports where the scores are determined solely by humans and equally subject to human error? Scoring and other benchmarks in other sports, that I can think of, is all - except for Alabama football - black and white and very little grey area.
Gymnastics is solely up to human judges who sit there and watch like the rest of us do, then determine what score they deserve. That's kinda fricked up if you really think about it.

Ok, so you were able to come up with 7 sports right off the cuff. So what!
Your point is received.
