US Nationals 2012 (Las Vegas)

[Kian]

As there was some confusion about the prizes last year, I think someone should absolutely clarify (maybe it should be spelled out on the website). Do the cash prizes apply to everyone, or just US competitors? I assume, based on the clarification for the trip to Worlds, that the prizes are given without respect to nationality, and I sincerely hope that is the case, but I think it should be clarified now, so there is no doubt at the competition.

Your assumption is correct. All competitors are eligible for the cash prizes, regardless of nationality. The trip to Worlds 2013 is the only exception. The best finish by an American in 3x3x3 speedsolve, whether that be 1st or 7th or anything else, will be rewarded with the trip.

Could someone make sure to bring dome jigaloo? I doubt we can bring it through airport security/customs.

It should be fine. I took CRC with me on international flights a few times, I even told the TSA about it.

Just put it in a bag you are checking. I doubt you can have it in your carry-on.

So my flight lands right before registration. I think I will be there in time but I may not be there before 9, and I am in the first event (4x4). I just thought I should let you know. I do not think this will be a problem because I am in heat eight which starts at 9:55.

Yep, exactly

Are Lubix/Maru Lube (i.e. small quantities, and not sprays) allowed on carry-on?

[Julian]

I wonder if anyone is on my flight. Anyone from Toronto leaving Thursday at 7:20 am?

If anyone still hasn't booked a hotel room yet, Anthony Brooks and I are looking for someone to stay in a room with us and one more person at the Riviera.
