Gumball Practice Session

[PEZZ Lightyear]

For those 1 or 2 of you who can't get enough of the Gumball info, here is the timeline I kept while doing a run-through by myself on the Saturday before the event. Sick stuff. It helped a little to prepare, even though my strategy kind of went haywire somewhere on Rally day.

Yeah my Excel Copy/Paste didn't work quite the way I thought it would.

I tried to clean it up a bit.

Re: Gumball Practice Session

More like a lot of note-taking.

When I discussed this with E-Ticket at the ice-cream event, he sort of gave me a distressed look and said "So you did the Gumball Rally - TWICE".

I don't know if "impressive" or "cry for help" is what I'm going for here.
