Sad I missed the meeting this time around.

Let me know if I missed anything!

So I went and got my MRI today and the neurologist called me back and said the damage in my brain DOES show up on the MRI. Now having damage in your brain is definitely not good news, but if it prevents you from working and you’re trying to pry disability from Uncle Sam’s teeth… it’s good news to have proof that there’s a real problem. My case is currently being reviewed for the second time so hopefully this comes in time to make a difference.

I’ve heard how much of an uphill battle getting disability can be. Best of luck!

Also, since it actualy shows up on your brain, you have to give it a name so you can curse it right and proper.

Last year I had a single Butterfly for FAF. This year I’m a bit more prepared.

I need to get some wood in there eventually.

@Pun1sh3R - I put the FAF25 logo in the “Add Your Content” folder in the YYBC Google Drive.

I’m still not sure if I can make stickers on the office Cricut. My car died last week, and I haven’t been back into the office since.

EDIT: @Captrogers - Look here!

Heyo - 1st post on the forums for me. I’m getting into yoyo a few decades after loving them as a kid but forgetting they existed as a busy taking myself too seriously adult. Please allow this noob into the club!

I’m stoked at the idea of modern responsive play and just purchased a 1970’s NIB and 1990s Duncan Butterfly in prep for Fixed Axle February. Looking forward to meeting and learning from everyone!

Welcome to the Forum and Welcome to the club. You have been added to the Member List in the first post.

What an exciting time to get in. We are in the middle of putting Fixed Axle February together. Last year was our first run at it… But this year is looking insane!!!

Modern Responsive will be very similar to the Fixed Axle Play, just with a bearing and a few more string tricks. Modern Responsive March is just around the corner!

I’ll just use a Butterfly XT for MRM this year, but what might be a better, more advanced responsive yoyo?

(So disappointing I missed the Workhorse. 🥲)

We just found out today in Monday Morning Yoyo that the Workhorse will not be available for MRM this year.

There are a lot of MRM yoyos. My first recommendation is to pick up a MR85 modded yoyo from Ms. Pyro. 2nd would be the Jazz Kasam from Layer Infinity (There are some other amazing variants as well, but your a Boomer so go Jazz). 3rd would be to scour the BST for any one of the greats from the past (Weekender, Mijo, Harbinger, Respawn, Deep(er) State, etc.).

Thanks–I’m a big mod guy, might need to scrape up some cash and some 'Flies and shoot Ms. Pyro a message.

butterfly xt is a great responsive yoyo, i would recommend adding 1 or two thin shims. helps add a little bit of kickback that is welcomed on that yoyo.
