The judges simply ranked the competitors on a sheet of paper, awarding the best man one point, the second two and so on. It was a simple method in which the lowest score won. DeMilia had devised a system where the computer randomly selected one judge per round as an alternate, thus eliminating their score. It then removed the three highest and the three lowest scoring judges. From the twelve judges, then, just five papers counted in any one round, and the judges were unaware of which they were, " To fix a contest, definitely beyond a shadow of a doubt, Wayne had told me, somewhat gleefully, ' you gotta buy off nine judges. I figured this out mathematically. You gotta buy off nine judges. In our sport, with all the big mouths and gossips and everything else, you think nine judges could keep their mouths shut? And lets face it, you gotta go to nine judges and one says ' I don't wanna do it, ' you gotta go to number ten...You think that one other guy ain't gonna talk? ' Hey he tried to buy me off, but I didn't take it. He didn't offer me enough money..." how much money is it gonna take.?" 

Its impossible to fix a contest anyone who says otherwise is ignorant of the way contests are judged , well you're not ignorant anymore what excuses are you left with now?

in 1993 the judges were prepared to assign dorian a score in the muscularity round WITHOUT comparing him to his competitors.

you tell us if thats a fair judging panel or not.. ::)

thats about as solid of proof of contest fixing/partial judging as you can get right there:

pull a score out of your ass and write it down on the card. who cares how you got it... ::)

the fact that dorian deserved to win in 93 is besides the point.

the method of scoring should have been as impartial as possible.

and that did not happen.

you don't get it.

it doesn't matter if dorian was 109000 times better than everyone else, the point is that in order to have impartial judging, the judges still have to follow the protocol of comparing competitors properly to assign them scores which are as accurate as possible.

they were prepared to throw all that out the window and assign a score anyway..

hence, partial judging from the onset.

you can't argue this ND - by definition that is what occured.

period.

Not saying anything was fixed but come on, maybe Dorian sucked a lot of Dick and not just uncle Joes, maybe all the judges wanted their great white hope to win, or maybe they just did'nt follow procedure or the judging format at all and something else went on behind closed doors.
Did you guys hear about Anthony Johnsons ovious eye poke incident from Kevin Burns not being overturned to a DQ or NC by the NSAC. Shady shit happens in some sports for reasons that can not be explained, Matt Hamil Lost to Bisbing in London also. Brock is about to fight Randy for no logical reason other than the big bucks they'll make, point being you do what is financialy best for your organization. One last tid bit, whites sell more magazines than blacks when they're the cover boys.

You have your excuses Dorian has the Sandows

Of course all we can do here is debate and speculate, so good observation  ::).
That reminds me of a pretty cool and interesting statement Dorian made in Flex a while ago, something along the lines of how he was told so many times by many people that his physique was ugly, unsymetrical and undeserving of many of his O wins, but at the end of the day he still had his Olympia trophies to comfort him  8).
I guess plastic trophies are more important to him than the legacy that his peers and the fans that drive the sport have of him and his questionable O reign  :-\.

so, you tell us all how judges can be impartial in scoring a competitor in the mandatories by seeing him standing in the quarter turns only.

you tell us all LOL

yes, and he deserved to win overall.

but that is not what is being discussed here.

its the method used to come to that conclusion that is in question.

ie the judges were going to score dorian without even bothering to compare him to his competitors in the muscularity round.


hence, partial judging in favor of dorian.

period.

Again you have your excuses Dorian has the Sandows all you can do is cry  and the judges were partial to Dorian's physique because it was SUPERIOR to his contemporaries using the Official IFBB judging criteria duh

lmfao the judges partial to Yates its fixed LMFAO great logic , Dorian met the criteria better than everyone it has to be fixed

You don't believe the quote? I'll see if I can find the mag by today or tomorrow. I did not think the quote was anti-Dorian at all, just interesting in correlation to your previous post.
