Dixon Summer 2014

Noticed that there wasn't a thread about this yet, so I guess I'm making one

KOII Link
WCA Link

Date: July 19th, 2014, 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM
Venue: Dixon Historic Center
Address: 205 West 5th Street, Dixon, IL, 61021
Organizer: John Brechon
WCA Delegate: Kit Clement
Events: 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 3x3 OH, 3x3 BLD, FMC, Clock
Potential Events: Skewb, 3rd Round 2x2 (Events will be added as time permits, I believe)

I'm going, so I hope everyone in the KOII area can make it! See y'all there

Goals: (subject to change if I practice them a lot or not at all)

2x2: Podium, get a sub-2 single, and a sub-2.83 average
3x3: Sub-12.5 average
4x4: Sub-55 average
OH: Sub 20 single, sub 22 average
Clock: Get an average
Skewb: (IF) Get a sub-8 average and sub-6 single.

Well, it's tomorrow… The great Chris Olson is coming, so he might actually get that WR average tomorrow instead of at US Nats, though he may say something different

Good luck to you all!

I'll be there as my first competition, I'm looking forward to the morning!

Scrambles: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gu3wdfpytic1398/AADDn92gGwsOl82bjU1sOvksa (This link will eventually stop working. If it's not working, send me a PM if you'd like to see the scrambles.)

From 2x2 first round:

U2 R' U2 F R U' R F' R2 U' R2

solve:
y R U' R U R B2 R2 U2

I'm surprised more people didn't do well on this one.

*wince* 3.59 average stackmatted on the skewb scrambles

Retrying my 2x2 round.

2.961, (3.287), 3.024, (1.301), 2.110

2.70 ao5, 1.30 single

I hope I don't get a 3 streak of official 2x2 DNF averages at Indiana if I go.

I had expected more interest in this.

Since this was the sixth Dixon competition, I was curious to see how many people have competed at all 6 competitions. It turns out, John Brechon and I are the only people who have been to all six.
