Nice one chaps.

And Rob, I've just voted a 'Yes' in your poll.

No practice for me today sadly - shoulder injury, nothing serious but enough to stop play :(

Well, it seems like the KCCs aren't very popular, but if you want to, then yes.

I can only speak for myself and say that I've really enjoyed the KCCs on the forum, especially the thematic ones. Lighthouse Keeping opened up an entire universe of tama tricks for me that I'd never even considered; I always thought they were too hard for me. Exactly the opposite of how Rob is feeling it, this KCC didn't daunt me, it inspired me to strive through its 'narrative' (the ladder just told a real story, so to speak).

Not having a camera and/or any viable editing options is a bit of a drawback; I keep connected on a Jurassic-era laptop, and am happy that I can manage that much (video just barely running real-time speed). Watching you guys progress and push each other makes me do the same in my practise, as opposed to excluding me. I'm not sure how the others feel, but I'm of the opinion that serious competitive consistency stuff can only be an example to fellow clickers to get their game tight.

Maybe this post should have gone in [user]Dimensions[/user]'s poll, but I wanted to reserve comment just to keep things impartial, though it's pretty clear from this post my stance on the whole thing.

Keep clicking.

I did not try this one, although I wanted to, but unfortunately I have very little spare time lately and I only play with the kendama once or twice a week, and it is barely a warmup.

Otherwise, I'd have given this a try, but off camera.

My idea for KCC #24 is up - please vote up to 15 tricks

I decided to go ahead with it anyway as it seems that most people, would be split between the top 2 options
The KCC's have caused a big stir before - especially in KCC #8
So a combination of both have made me show you my ideas
