There's more than one way to trip the MLU.  Some people prefer a fast and
light downwards tap, while others like myself find a rear-to-front
sideways flick effective.  I can get both to work, but if I'm a bit off,
then the downwards tap is usually too hard and wastes a shot, while the
sideways one just fails to do anything.  It takes some practice, so try
it lots, or get someone to show you how.
