Okay, this is a question that randomly popped into my head today and has been bugging me ever since.
So I know that for a skill to be named after you, you have to perform it successfully at worlds or Olympics (do you have to do it in event finals or not? I'm not sure. That's not my main question though). But what happens if two people do it at the same time?
So, for example (this is completely hypothetical, by the way. I'm not saying there is any chance this would happen, I just made it up), let's say Maroney and Wieber both performed a triple twisting Yurchenko in vault finals at worlds next year, and they both submitted it to be named after them. Who would it be named after?
