Yay gabby! We've really been pulling for her - so happy!

So excited for Gabby! I was watching online and they weren't providing a ton of commentary -- anyone know how Aly tied for 3rd and what tiebreaker was used that bumped her to 4th? I seem to recall in past Olympics that they have awarded more than one color medal...

The tiebreaker was on execution scores, not difficulty. Most of Aly's routines (except bars) were more difficult.

YAY GABBY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One thing that is positive about the Russians is that Mustafina is Muslim, I hope that more women from Muslim countries get inspired by her.

No, they were not. The only more difficult routine was vault.

Now I've read the tie-break may be on the 3 highest scores, not the execution scores. At any rate, Aliya's difficulty scores were: 5.8 vault/7.0 bars/6.1 beam/5.9 floor. Aly's difficulty score were: 6.5 vault/5.9 bars/6.2 beam/6.3 floor. Therefore, Aly's difficulty scores were higher on all but bars.

What were the execution scores?

You can see all of the score here:

(I'm just too lazy to copy them into the post). And it does look like the tiebreaker is that they take the 3 highest scores, not the total of the execution scores.

Hmm, 168 view and only 10 responses - most of which are about another person - who did not win a medal.
Interesting.

Yay for the flying squirrel from Va Beach!!

She still has beam and bar on Saturday. She could pick up another gold on bar, unlikely on beam, but she could easily medal in the two.
