Being that Yairhonig asked so politely to be registered because he already had his video, I have allowed him to compete. Just to answer any future questions on his appearance. ---

I’ve seen a lot of good prelims. I have to confess, i originally thought it was gonna be easy making finals, but it looks like i was wrong. ---

Thank you Yes, I figured I probably did that wrong. I will use that next time, but I will stay consistent here. Like you said earlier, each judge does it differently. ---

> [@Philip](#): > > i vote palli’s judging should have double weight I vote against this. There are lots of very reputable judges (for 1a at least) and Palli is just one of them. This would give his decision too much power and end up making the contest less official which is not what (at least I think) Zorro wants this contest to be (not official.) ---

ALERT: I have gotten my little brother, Jr. Mouse, into the judging scene with 1A, 4A, and 5A. He knows nothing about 4A and 5A and little on 1A so don’t expect to high of scores for everybody on this one. It’s just hard to say “no” sometimes. 😛 😃 He has judged the first five videos in the 1A Prelim playlist and his scores are as follows: 1. owngry 76.00 2. kulazndoode 69.21 3. igknighton 62.82 4. bcmaddog 43.64 5. Zorro 39.25 (I have a feeling that me being the older brother has something to do with this) 😃 [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/zorros-2014-freestyle-contest/64388.md?page=12) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/zorros-2014-freestyle-contest/64388.md?page=14)
