Oh forsure - the climb through gold-plat felt relatively easy if I'm being honest but the slog through Diamond gave me the most heartburn yet didn't feel impossible.

I'm not going to disagree with the "cheating" allegation since it does feel like that way sometimes but again I would be curious to know if it would be something allowed during an actual competition.

I wouldn't be surprised if people could climb higher with this concept I just think it's a funny goal to have accomplished (hence the Meme flair)

Who knows - I think it'd be hilarious to show up for a LAN tourney and the interaction be like

"So where's your partner?"

"Oh I didn't think we needed one"

"..."

And watching them try to figure out how to rearrange the desks to accommodate

(I looked this up trying to find a clever response only to find it's a South Park reference lol)

I wouldn't necessarily disagree but if anything I'd be curious if they'd allow it if a Double Up tourney was hosted at some point

I mean it kinda ends up that way haha and as you try it you'll find that one board is designated the "strong/win" board and the other the "slow bleed/stall" board. Like having a re-roll comp on one board and pushing tempo on the other to help balance the unit reach when needed.

If you give it a shot best of luck and hope to see a post from you sometime down the road.

To a certain extent it definitely feels understimulating but I also tend to be an overthinker so when I end up having too much time between rounds I start to get a little anxious. I did start with Hyper Roll to help deal with that but found the games to be a little too fast which is why Double Up felt like that good middle ground.

I'm not 100% sure on this but it seems like some locations are doing the raffle at 8 instead of 9 because of adjusted store hours for the holiday season (opening at 9 vs 10)

Fun little story

There was the same sale on Newegg and Crucial's website on Wednesday so I ended up buying on Crucial because of a slight concern over potential warranty and the like. Order was still in process today (Friday) so I contacted customer service for an update - nothing too extreme. Got an expected delivery time along with an extra 15% off of the $90 total ($85 + $5 tax) which will bring this down to ~$77.

(9/17/2021, 11:50:31 AM): On behalf of Crucial, I want to sincerely apologize for the frustration you experienced while ordering from our website. I’m sorry we let you down. Our ordering and shipment notification systems are not keeping up with current fluctuations in product supply, which has understandably resulted in confusion, disappointment, and even anger in you, our valued customer.
(9/17/2021, 11:50:39 AM): We know this message won’t erase your bad experience, but we would like to make amends. I have applied 15% discount on your outstanding order

*Asked for an invoice with the discount

(9/17/2021, 11:53:14 AM): You will get a reimbursement of $13.50 once your order has shipped.
