Magic wands are too easy to wave around . The more its waved , the less informative the discussion becomes , I ' m afraid . <| sep |> Ah , good to know it ' s not completely depressing . And if that ' s true of the bad ends , that just makes me more interested . <| sep |> Because it ' s not a real jobit ' s not meant to be a careerI ' ve had a few conversations with people about it and those are the go to arguments . <| sep |> so I ' m guessing he probably already skated in either America or Canada and didn ' t place wellActually , he skated in the Cup of France which took place after Cup of China . He was assigned to CoF together with Chris and Cao Bin , however , and I think he knew he had small chances of beating them especially Chris in a serious mode . His best chance was winning gold or silver at CoC as with Chris had a rep of peaking later in the season , Yuri having a tendency to skate poorly due to nerves and Phichit not making the GPF last season he could hope for an easy medal .
