[NSRCA-discussion] New Masters Sequence

[John Gayer]

Tony,
We all have a problem when looking at a sequence we didn't originate. 
Compound that with the problem of being too defensive about sequences we 
did originate. Instead of calling for fresh paper, see what you do to 
fix what is in front of you.
There is no requirement in the guide that a certain percentage of the 
maneuvers have to already be in the guide. So anything goes. Looking at 
what is in the sequence below, all the maneuvers are variations on items 
in the guide, with the exception of the two integrated maneuvers which 
do exceed the intent expressed in the guide. The loop could be changed 
to a 4-pt over 180 and the golf ball could be changed to 1/2 rolls(no 
integration) or a completely different maneuver such as a humpty with 
3/4 rolls for some variation. That meets the requirements.
John
