I’m afraid ill look stupid doing sport ladder on account of the three tricks I’m struggling with. Still gonna do it. I missed rock the baby and double or nothing at Indiana states because of being nervous. You can’t look much stupider.But I am going to MER and going to try again. ---

I looked pretty stupid last year at MER, but I’ve recently had a breakthrough in my researches of not looking stupid: The key is to not stupid. Or you could just have a good time and not worry about it, that works too. ---

> [@Jdrabik](#): > > Definitely me. By the way, does anyone know the time it starts and registration cost? I think typically registration starts at 9 for MER. And someone correct me if I’m wrong (I’m going off of memory) but it’s $5 per division to compete and free to watch. [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/mid-east-regionals/54562.md?page=2)
