i dont see what all the fuss is about really.
firstly, its a myth that the first callout is directly related to your position. Generally- and in fact most times, it involves what the judges think is the top three competitors, but if they're pretty certain who fill those spots then it doesnt necessarily have to be that way.
it may be that they arent too sure about the exact placings of others so want to compare them, or get a reference to one of the top guys.
whatever the rationale- its not a rule- so being in the first callout doesnt really guarantee or even indicate anything. You cant read the judges minds as to why they arranged each comparison.
Secondly, who gives a rats about a judge mentioning to king to hang around?
i'd hardly call it gross incompetence or be all angry about it. They get officially told who's in the top 5- and until then it's unofficial.
if someone whispers in your ear to hang around- sure allow yourself to get a bit excited but dont get too carried away until your officially told. KK is going all psycho based on an alleged whisper.
maybe you didnt hear the guy right?- what do we know- its all hearsay..
and so what about the scoresheets and some circle. again- maybe you didnt see it right, and maybe they circled your name because they wanted to remind themselves that you had the most synthol of anyone in the comp?
all this adds up to a developing psychosis for KK to me. The delusions, the aggression, the sense of paranoia and victimisation.
these are classic symptoms of depression and abnormal mental state- coupled with the questionable pursuit of being a bodybuilder and this one's a timebomb.
