Ok, another blog post tying together MySQL and Frisbee. It all started back in June. First round of the Swiss Mixed Ultimate Frisbee Championships. We played well, lost only 1 game. So good so far. Last weekend was round two. We did not loose a single game and surprise, we are already in the final, even before playing the final 2 games on Saturday next week. Hmm, now I realize it started a year ago in Viareggio. One of the top beach Frisbee tournaments in Europe, where I was planning with the Viareggio only "Strandlaeufer" team. We all swore an oath to come to play together the follow year again.
Only trouble was, that this coincided with the final round of the Swiss Championships. Bummer, I would miss out on the final! So I ping'ed Max, who is organizing the team and said: "Hey, I will not let you guys down, but I could be playing a final ..". Max said "Ah, go ahead and play your final". So suddenly I am not traveling to Italy anymore. An then I also realized, this means I now have time to attend the MySQL Developer conference in Heidelberg!
Now I really like the Viareggio tournament, but the trade for a final at a national championship plus attending two days of MySQL Developer conference seems mighty fine. Looking forward to both events. See you there. If you have any nagging MySQL questions, feel free to post them here and I will try to get some answers during the conference from the source :)
