The last Lightning Flippers meet was our fourth, which also means we were starting the second half of the season. We had seven attend which means we were missing a few members, but we were graced by the return of Linda, Sarah, and Mackenzie after their absence last time. We were split into the top group with four and the bottom group with three.
My group included the formidable Tim as well as Amy and Dana, and we had a really fun night of competition. The highlight of the night was when Tim ran up the score on Ghostbusters (a game I am usually weak on)to 600-something and I thought, no way, I’ll just try to get second… then I somehow managed to do over 800! Even a blind rabbit finds a carrot once in a while, as the saying goes.
Our Lansing Lightning Rater tournament, the most ridiculous possible IFPA tournament, had a four-player final match between Tim, Sarah, Amy, and Dana. None of the scores were exceedingly high, but Tim took the W.
Everything is having to get more strategic with game choices as people are starting to run out of their favorites to use (as a game can be chosen only once in the season). I know that I’m down to mulling over which Williams games are left in my roster. I haven’t decided on a game for our next meeting yet… which is tonight! I hope to see all of the Lightning Flippers ladies soon!
