Are the ties a bit contrived ?
Jorgie and Matthew tied at 21.5; three others tied at 18.0. A coincidence ? It was like the scores had been added up beforehand.

I doubt it's contrived. With 13 skaters and judges using a smaller range of scores in the early weeks plus only 3 judges it's inevitable there will be a few ties. Having more than usual was just a coincidence.

I think if they were fixing scores the marks would appear more logical. The difference in individual judges scores for Matt and Jorgie was too pronounced for a fix. If they were pre-planned, they'd probably have had Louie mark Matt 0.5 down vs Jorgie, and Robin 0.5 up.

The really push the idea of the Jorgie-Matthew rivalry, and it seems Matthew's scores are made up to justify that idea.
