SIMULATION: Fake U.S. Olympic Trials:
This is a *fake* score simulation & live tweeting thread. I am using a dice to generate certain scores for each gymnast based on historical performances and, to a certain degree, prospective upgrades. Purely fictional & fun, not predictive.

ROTATION 3.
McCALLUM, G. (VT): She warmed up both a Cheng & Amanar, but she decides to go for the Amanar instead. She does a clean job w/ an overrotating step to the side. Looks fully rotated. "Fabulous job!" says Sarah Jantzi. This should move her up in the standings! (5.8/9.25 = 15.050).
ROTATION 4.
HURD, M. (VT): The crowd is cheering her on: "Go, Morgi!" She is planning to do a DTY. She tilts slightly to one side, but her form is flawless. She has a very nice landing w/ a small hop backwards. She smiles widely to the crowd & runs to give Slava a hug (5.4 / 9.063 = 14.463).
