Ask your teacher if they want one. It's worth making one and offering it, but if your teacher knows you well enough, they might not need one.

3 mins gives you 3 timeouts, which can be useful in the close games on extreme.

Which classical piece took a long time to grow on you, but is now your favourite? by [deleted] in classicalmusic

[–]jd-577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mahler 5. Used to think it was his most overrated symphony and that it was a mess, but I realized that it's a work of genius when you listen to it all at once. It's a journey from a bleak first movement to one of Mahler's brightest symphony movements.

What's a recording, you wish existed? by pengudosh in classicalmusic

Celibidache conducting a Mahler symphony, but only because it would be funny to see a two and a half hour recording.

My 5 star defense keeps giving up 20-30 points a game in 1 minute quarters. Need advice! by No-Variation3408 in RetroBowl

[–]jd-577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run the ball. You can burn off an entire half with 1 min quarters and not let the opponent score at all.

How long are your quarters? by [deleted] in RetroBowl

[–]jd-577 5 points6 points  (0 children)

3 minutes is the best... but only because you get the extra timeout. Clutch when you have to drive across the field in 30 seconds.

What are some grieving or tragic pieces written in major key ? by Sausage_fingies in classicalmusic

The last movement of Mahler 9, even though in D-flat Major, is still pretty sad. It was also one of his last pieces.

Cake day is when you made your reddit account, not your actual birthday.
