CubingUSA Nationals 2017 will be held in Fort Wayne, Indiana on July 7 - July 9, 2017.. Please see the competition site for details: https://www.cubingusa.com/nationals2017/index.php. Hope to see you there!
Hey folks,
Thanks for all the interest. I want to give some background on the current situation and why we have qualification times.
This year we had a competitor limit of 600 competitors, which would have been the largest WCA competition ever at the time. Registration was only open for a...
I don't have any say in this, but if I did, I'd want to be convinced that people are going to be interested in Kilominx for more than a few weeks. If we added a new event every time that a new puzzle came out and a bunch of people bought them, we'd end up getting rid of a lot of events as...
You'll have 3 hours to do your 4BLD attempts. It's up to you to make sure you don't miss your other events.
For 3x3 round 2, you'll be assigned to a specific heat, so you'll need to make sure you're not doing 4BLD when that heat is scheduled.
Will, what does the registration page say when you try to add events?
You should be able to add events until July 1. I recently moved some things around on that page and might have accidentally disabled this for some competitors. If you tell me exactly what the registration page says I can...
We recently migrated cubingusa.com to a new server, and have been having some database issues. This mainly impacts psych sheets, particularly for big competitions.
We've turned off the nationals 2016 psych sheets since they're particularly hard to compute. We're still working on a better...
Less than two months away! This is a reminder of two important upcoming deadlines:
June 15: Deadline to cancel your registration. If you are no longer able to attend US Nationals, and contact us by June 15, we can give you a 50% refund. There are over 150 hopeful competitors on the waiting...
Hey Corey, when I click on the google docs from Season 1 it says that it's in the owner's trash. You should probably fix that before it gets permanently deleted.
Article 5:
Oops, sorry, that was the 2005 regulations I was looking at.
More seriously, that was tried and gotten rid of. For one thing, people realized that, even if popping isn't intentional, it's your own fault if you can't control your cube. And then people started making their cubes...
There are a lot of factors that go into where we hold it. We explicitly try to move it around as much as possible, and get a good geographic mix. We actively looked at venues in the middle of the country, and most of our ideas were not on a coast. But, none of those venues worked out, and we...
We're choosing not to hold it this year. We have limited time and we're using that time on more popular events. I don't have any idea whether the WCA Board or WRC is planning to remove feet, but we're not planning on holding it.
Plot twist: we haven't picked a location for Nationals yet. Kian is making up clues, and then the rest of the organizers are frantically trying to find a venue that satisfies all of them.

For Exeter we have a limit of 125 people. Not sure about the others, but it's somewhere around there.
Unfortunately Melrose won't be happening this fall, the venue didn't work out.
Since Lexington filled up quickly, here's a sneak preview of all the competitions we have planned in New England for the rest of 2015.
Usual disclaimer that all of these are tentative until they're announced on the WCA site, so don't make any non-refundable travel plans until it's announced and...
