The 2nd one, I use a bathroom break or my lunch to help clear my LPs (by CA state law, I’m obligated to take a lunch and since I always bring my food, I have extra time anyways. :P ) Sleep? What’s that? :P These guys were actually causing games to slow down, because if someone fails like that, everyone else in the game, at the end, has to wait until the timer goes to 0 before they can continue. So it involved 25 seconds of waiting when I ran into these people. And I ran into them, over and over again. If I had calculated out my path for the EN event…I would have been doing this for the last half hour to get to the top tier, instead of falling short by 3k points. I think I don’t have the time to do anything more than get the 2nd SR card if I’m going to continue to play both JP and EN events. ^_^; --Tim
