[FCR 2003] Results/ranking: less 5:ths, 9:ths and 17:ths

Would it be possible that in this years FCR results you could differentiate all the skaters that end up 5:th, 9:th and 17:th so that they each get an individual placing such as 6:th, 7:th etc.

That would help the ranking systems differentiate the skaters better. There's quite a difference being 17:th and 32:nd. And we're all after the exact results/placing in this sport. Don't you all agree?

I would suggest we define the places among "the loosers" by ranking their times in their last head-to-head attempt. Like that even guys who are sure to be excluded by a much faster skater will still be motivated to do his best to at least obtain a good time. That could end up being worth a lot for his final placing.

Thank you for considering this proposal.
