Moleskin: Today was about building on the foundation laid last week.
Intended Themes:
- Get the simple stuff down. Its likely the only part of the event you have any control over.
- Teamwork isn't about everyone doing the same work at all times, instead its about individuals crushing it when able, and the team covering for eachother when needed.
- The rules matter, and should always be followed, this will save the team as much pain as just about anything else.
- Cadre can be ambiguous with their instructions, and leave you to figure it out, this gives you the chance to either get creative, or screw yourself (but always following the rules).
Sound off in the comments with all the fun stuff I left out.
