Tie Breaker?

So, the 12 year old cheater went first in the Uneven Bars event finals and scored a 16.725.
Then, the non-cheater Nastia Liukin went and also scored 16.725.

The computer has some fucked program that figures out how to break the tie.
What the hell?
And naturally, the cheater has come out on top.

What a fucked up way to win the silver medal.

The announcers keep making comments like, well she [Nastia] knew the were tie breaking rules.
Um, okay. Who goes into the Olympics and thinks they're actually going to get a fucking tie?
A tie with a 12 year old cheater? A tie that gets you second place based on some stupid software program?

That's lame, IOC. And kind of bullshit.

ETA:
Bela Karolyi: Jah jah jah, this is ridiculous! Jah, jah, jah.

I couldn't have said it better myself, Bela.

Not only is she too young, but she also made way more mistakes! The Australian judge must have spaced out and randomly assigned scores.
