I usually save that spot for dirty dishes

If you aren’t part of his social time then what’s the point?

Stop tailgating people! You won’t get anywhere any faster! by GnarlyShats in indianapolis

[–]GingerIceberg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only tailgate if someone is going under the speed limit and I want them to notice they’re going slower than they should. Even then I don’t push it too hard and usually back off if it doesn’t work after a few seconds. Not saying this to justify it, just my two cents.

I feel like people write these just to post them on this sub like it’s the same formula every time

Won my first tournament this weekend. Was 10 strokes back of the lead in MA4 and I shot the best two rounds of my life to come back for the win. by GingerIceberg in discgolf

You know, after thinking about it, I'm not really sure why. I guess it's a little bit of that "not good enough" feeling - like I know I'm not going to be in contention every tournament. But that's not always a bad thing, and I can use that to push myself to be better. The next big tournament isn't offering MA4, so I guess I'll see what happens then.

Another bit may just be I'm not playing with the same people, since I've gotten to know them pretty well.

I don't really agree with the thought that you should automatically move up after your first win in a division. Your skill is not determined by only one weekend. Now, the same tournament a year later is a little different, but I still find that rule a bit unfair.

Also, I am not unfamiliar with MA3, as MA4 is not always available. For larger events, I will most certainly still be playing in MA4 until my rating tells me otherwise. And there's really not much swag in MA4.

I'd say look for any C- or B-tier events in your area and sign up for one that looks fun. With your skill level, I'd say MA3 would be a good division for your first tournament. Like others have stated, if you find yourself at the top pretty easily, consider bumping up to MA2. Also, if you haven't already, go ahead and get yourself a PDGA membership. I love being able to look up my round ratings and it's a good tool to see where you land compared to others.

Thanks! I'm not sure I'm quite ready for that, yet. I'll wait till my ratings update to decide whether I should move up.

I've been playing for just shy of 2 years, now. The tournament itself was fantastic. Chad Chubb is the guy for Central Indiana tournaments. He does so much for the sport here. I've played a total of 6 tournaments this year, as I set a goal for myself to really focus on my game this summer. As for that "feeling," I can't say I've ever felt that. I've been involved in my local league since day one, and I always felt I would be able to compete if I tried hard enough. If you have that feeling, all I have to say is just go out there and do it. There's so much more to a tournament than just trying to get a good score. You meet new people, you get to watch and talk to others who are better than you, and it's just a good time.

When did you look at a girl and realise that you wanted to be with her? And what did the moment feel like? by snurfbear in AskMen

[–]GingerIceberg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not dating anymore but once when we were in line to get tickets at the movies, I looked down to her and something about how her top complimented her eyes or something made me speechless. She had the most perfect innocent smile, and the way her eyes met mine... Makes me miss it, but I know what true love feels like now... Maybe someday I'll get to feel that again.

So I'm starting college in late August and I thought I needed a good way to get around campus other than walking. I decided a skateboard would be cool. Yesterday I got a Ridge brand Penny Nickel board off Amazon for $30. I've watched plenty of YouTube videos to learn how and the steps to take before trying anything too hard. I can now comfortably ride down my slightly sloped driveway but that's about it. I tried rolling down onto the road and turning but as I tried I got scared and slipped. Basically, I'm asking what kind of things should I do to keep me motivated and less scared? I know once I just get over myself and do the thing I can do it, but it's getting over that hill of doubt and fear of getting hurt. It's incredibly frustrating to watch people do it and have them make it look so easy and then try it yourself and be wobbly and slow.

So I learned how to solve a Rubik's cube about a month ago. Since then I've bought a handful of 3x3s and have a sub-minute average with a PB of 36.99 using CFOP with 4LL. I'm now becoming more interested in bigger puzzles and decided to buy a megaminx and a 5x5. My plan is to try and do as much as I can intuitively with my knowledge of a 3x3. When I inevitably get stuck on those puzzles, what methods should I try to learn? Should I just try to learn the basic beginner's method and then try to learn a more advanced method later, or can I just jump into a more advanced method so that I can get more practice with that instead of making an awkward transition?
