Almost an E again

This was a fun tournament and I did well, but I admit it took a few hours to get over feeling "argh" about coming within 2 points of earning that silly E rating. My DE bout with Adam Chase was mostly tied or with me a point or two ahead, until the end when he pulled a point, then two ahead. And although he's certainly a challenge his style works well for me. That is, he tends to do things that I usually try to get people to do—things conducive to my blade taking tactics. But now that a bunch of hours have passed I'm over that and more enjoying having had a good day fencing. I'd write more but am tired. Started taking notes on individual fencers in a little notebook. Perhaps that will come in handy in the future.
