RE: Earned Advancement
When I pointed out of Advanced, I was flying fairly well and making almost all the contests.
Life, money and the pursuit of happiness has led me to fly occasionally and I get to go to contests. Now, when I do, it is everything I can do to break 900.
I still have fun, I enjoy being around good friends and sharing and learning, but... the desire to win kills me. Yet, i go, and I know i will not win.
I want to be competitive and if i flew more often I would no doubt fly masters, but lately, i would rather fly advanced and be competitive with those guys than go fly 6 rounds of mediocre sequences.
