Sorry, I was hoping I'd be able to make it, but I can't. I'm missing a lot of Ballers lately. :(

Thanks to evybody that turned up. The Flip Frenzy experiment was a good time, thanks for humoring me on that.

To anybody that was disappointed with how drastically the night turned into VR Lightsaber arena mayhem after the clock ran out; sorry, not sorry. :D

any thoughts after running your first flip frenzy?

I am really interested in the format (wish I could have made it over to hang and check it out).

We had five matches going with three people in the queue. Because I picked only games that tend to play quicker, the queue turned over really fast most of the time. Could have used another person or two in the queue, but running only 4 matches world have exaggerated the effect so we just went with it. If I did it again I don’t think I’d be as picky about which ganes are included and just let things happen however they may.

It’s really enjoyable to be playing much more often, even in each game (when it’s only 2 player instead of four).

I wouldn’t want to do FF tournaments all the time, but as a change of pace for a not-so-serious battle, it was a blast.
