Oof. USPS does some weird stuff sometimes. I've had packages in NC, and then a day later the tracking will say its back in California for customs.

Today was my first MFL tournament! Thanks to Common Pickle and company for getting it set up!
- We had 8 people attend. 9 were registered. For some reason, kade11 and Banana blader didn't show up! And that's kind of a problem: We came close to being unable to have this be a ranked tournament. If you're not going to show up and give an explanation why, in cases where the tournament is capped that's bad because you stole a slot someone else could have registered for, but in a tournament with low turnout, you can cause people to drive three hours (two times) to a tournament that might not even be ranked because you noshowed. So, I will definitely be counting these as potential infractions, reasons depending! If you can't make it to a tournament, don't register!
- The venue was cold. I forgot a hat. I had to wrap a scarf around my ears and tie it over my head. I looked ridiculous, but my head was warm. I have so little shame, and so much practicality.
- My launches are still weak! I had a lot of trouble with attack launches today. Ah well. There's always next time!
- 3 of the bladers were sharing parts, so we saw the same danged Earth Cygnus B combo show up match after match. And then MrBlade started using his own copy of it, so we had a full 4 people using that. It was... unpleasant. At least borrow something different each time!
- Tall Virgo combos did quite a number on the Earth Cygnus Bs.
- Some of my parts are apparently quite worn down! I was unable to use my S130 spin track. Always check purchased parts for thread wear!
- I made it to the finals with a 3-4 record! That's what happens when the top 4 ascend and you have 8 bladers! But that just gave me a chance to accrue two more losses. My deck format battle against Yami was very close, I lost 4-5. A very good match. Ardmore on the other hand completely shut down all of my higher tracked combos with Bakushin Something 90CS. Ouch. You live, you learn!
- I'm very tired. I might sleep in tomorrow, I really overdid it this weekend. Still, I shouldn't. I have work tomorrow.

I was the first one to pull out Earth Cygnus B in the first round against Ardmore who used Virgo TH170EDS then everyone else started copying me sharing the parts of Earth Cygnus B. But yeah most of the time Cygnus lost was because of a dang Virgo
- Tall Virgo combos did quite a number on the Earth Cygnus Bs.

What is this hilariously out of date spreadsheet version you're using?
Please make a post in the winning combinations thread.
