Yay for your dad!!

Compete!

I am not competing material either, I am still sup-60 in fact. However it is fun to enter, and it'll be an experience, plus you'll get a ranking!

Former world record holder Erik Akkerdjik wasn't even sub-40 when he first competed.
There were few competitiors at this competition, who weren't sub-1.
Anyways there is probably no correlation between solving time and fun at a competition.
So just come and compete.

@enferex and everyone who think's they are too slow to compete!

Yes you should compete regardless of your average time

(OMG Florian your gonna make me cry again! lol)

2 years ago I went to my first Rubik's Competition and i averaged 2:45~ish
and yesterday I made it into the second Round with an average of 39 seconds

So you totally should compete to meet the awesome people at the competitions


Also, in the past two Melbourne Competitions I've ran a raffle with pretty good prizes

Thanks Andrea,
With that and all the other kind words said. Maybe I should reconsider competition.

Definitely, my sister even entered and she thought it was great fun

Ah, nice. Yeah, I am totally not competition material. In fact, I don't plan to compete. I just want to meet some interesting folk, and improve my skills :-)

Dude, you should totally compete! It's not about setting world records, it's about getting your best times officially recognised. I just competed in my first comp and I'm so glad I did. Seriously, there are no judgements made. Even the fastest cubers in the world started with slower times.

If I solve at the speed of light, my cube's mass becomes infinite.

You can enter for whatever reason you want, mainly it's to meet new people and learn new things, also have tonnes of FUN.

That's the best reason I've heard yet. "learn new things"
