The event list for my state just came out (http://www.sciencenc.com/2018FinalListofEvents.pdf) and theres an event listed for B and C called "ping pong parachute." It appears to be a real event, not trial. Does anyone know what it is?

It's most definitely an NC event. I've never heard of it, nor does it appear on the NSO list of trial events.

Oh man... NCSO, you're a special one.

EDIT: One year NSO should, unannounced, just replace all the events at nats with the weird trials certain states treat like they're real events (WGYN, Mystery Design, Ping Pong, etc). Would be really entertaining.

Just you wait. NC is hosting nats in 2020.

Until then I'll just enjoy our ~3 NC-only events and complete lack of fermi questions.

What are the other two?

EDIT: Oh, wait, it's WGYN and Mystery Design, isn't it.
"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:11-12

I have no regrets.
