DYK
-First DYK for Euro's
-DYK seems to be a dying trend these days
-Sleeping on a hard floor for 3 days was terrible for my neck.
-I got woken up at Copenhagen airport by some guy driving the floor cleaning machine at me and doing a sharp turn just before driving into me.
-Danes are incedibly hospitable. Got a free ride to the train station by some guy who saw me in a t-shirt in the thunderstorm.
-First 3 day competition, but have another in just a few weeks time.
-Haven't had burger king for 3 years, and had 5 this weekend.
-Goal was 3PBs, got 3PBs, can't complain.
-3 double parities out of 5 for 4x4. In my last 10 official solves I've had 7 double parities.
-Should have made cut for Square-1 but misaligned bottom face by 3.
-Good to see a lot of European cubers for the first time in 4 years.
-Apparently "verbogen" is a real German word and it means 'Bent'.
-So much travelling.
-First time I've been to a country where I barely speak a word of the language, but only 1 person there didn't speak English
-Travelled in 1st class from the airport to Hvalso until the last 2-3km, when the ticket person pointed out I was in the wrong class.
-Did this as well for the French Open pretty much lol.
-The flags were in alphabetical order, I've only found out now Storbritania is why the UK flag was in-between Spain and Sweden.
Thanks to Lars/Camille for hosting on Thrusday night, and to everyone for organising

-The post Euros Danhostel hang out was a ton of fun... until it wasn't :/
-Username looks even younger IRL.
-It is hard to teach an American accent.
-Mollerz has a really good American accent.
-Ollie plz
-Grzegorz plz
-Callum is super popular in America AND the European 4BLD champion.
-GJ Louis.
-You have to PAY for a glass of water.
-The guy at the Danhostel store made fun of me for drinking water.
-Adam beat both Weyers at arm-wrestling at the same time, even though Philipp used two hands.
-It is impossible to figure out the rules for thirty person team solving.
-Eat-a-Bagel is Subway but with Bagels.
-The water cup challenge had no prizes.
-Taking a jog helps.
-Being dehydrated for multi in a hot room is a very bad idea that results in dizziness and everything shaking.
-Unlike at US Nats, rounds at Euros can start early, so I had to use someone else's cube for the 3BLD finals.
-Copenhagen is a very small city where you run into a lot of people you know.
-Tivoli is the most fun ever.

DYK
- My first DYK because I actually did something other than sit there for a bit, do some solves and go, unlike my first comp...
- I'm probably doing something wrong here because I usually do things wrong the first time I do them.
- hi everyone
- Yes, I speak English.
- My puzzles suck.
- I'm not very good on easy 2x2 scrambles.
- I then missed the next round of 2x2 by not many places, just like last comp.
- 11.21 F perm single, not using the RUF F perm
- I could have got a sub-10 single, but failed one of three Ga perms of the average
- I eventually found cube-o-holic; it only took until the third day
- I still don't know the regs well enough and signed two 5x5 attempts and a mega attempt as DNFs when they shouldn't have been
- I didn't actually talk to half the UK cubers there, except saying hi to them...
- Whether or not I made square-1 cutoff was decided by parity, and I got parity twice.
- I got two free puzzles, including my first skewb
- ... I'm not very good at skweb.
- Or most events.

I was surprised that you had to pay for water in restaurants. I'm used to it being complimentary.
I bought bottled water multiple times in order to have cold water :/

The burger restaurant we went to did charge us for tab water (10 Kroner), not bottled water.
DYK:
- we arrived at 9:00 AM on Thursday and were surprised the venue was not open yet?
- we hoped we could go to the toilet there?
- the church Reinier mentioned also provided the toilet!
- Joel was sweating like an otter cuz of carrying chairs around to set up the venue?
- Fabian should go to cube comps again? He manages to say the most random stuff to make you laugh!
- So proud of Breandan for winning 5x5? REPRESENT!
- We didn't manage to play batmanton?
- I started FMC with 29, 29 and then DNF-ed the 3rd attempt? *facepalm*
- Anthony Brooks is the man?
- The runner system and the division of 3 different competition areas worked very well? It's nice to sit in one of 3 small groups of about 16 people instead of in one huge waiting area of 50...
- Not all the staff-members did their job according to the planned schedule so the organization team still had to find some judges for some finals? (shame on you and yay for those who volunteered instead!)
- Henrik is a strict FMC judge? He had us put our phones on the ground, after which I forgot to take mine with me after the attempt of course...
- 21 sec 4x4 wat?
- 39 sec Megaminx wat?
- Watching Ollie memorize Multi-BLD is fun, cuz he is randomly punching in different directions?
- I should've switched my 2nd round (9.47) and semi-final (9.8x) 3x3 averages?
- Watching the finals is great though!?
- A-Lau was the deserved winner? Congrats!
- Cmon Mats!
- I almost made 4x4 podium out of the blue? 33.46 avg wat???? (thx Joey for ur awesome cube)
- People actually clapped for my first official 4x4 sub-30 solve? 29.99 lol
- Everyone clapped for Trine, but she was busy finalizing stuff for the winners ceremony?
- Everyone clapped for Odder before the winners ceremony for being Odder?
- The applause Odder got for winning Megaminx was not as loud?
- "Holy viking! Where is my phone?" -Odder-
- Andojay is fun!
- Apparently Weilong 3x3's are outdated already?

And French names ? "Fastest single for France: Jules... bleeeeh, can't pronounce that"-Henrik is really bad at pronouncing east european names, but he tries hard
(but he managed to pronounce "Desjardin" almost correctly when announcing the pyra podium, so there's some hope.)

-Kim is pretty good at 3x3 and 4x4?
-And he looks a lot like his sister?
-And he's a North Korean dictator?
-Noah is Noah?
-Luis told Ville that he was looking for me?
-What I was told was that there was a guy walking towards us who wants to put me in a body bag?
-Wtf 4x4 WRs?
-Wtf mega WRs?
-Avoiding DNFs at clock is a great strategy?
-Natalie should do the thing that he said he wanted to do if the thing he wants to do is not in September?
-He's good at clock?

-Third place in skewb, wut??
-We chose to do our mosaic during 2x2 finals because we suck at 2x2?

-I care about 2x2 single way more than I should?
-Such team?

Are you sure you didn't accidentally go into first class on a 2nd class ticket like me
"Would you like to pay extra to go in first class?"
"how much extra is it?"
"50DKK"
"I think I'll leave it then"
"2nd class is downstairs"
"Sorry, I didn't realise this was 1st class"
*procedes to go downstairs for the remaining 2km of the journey*
The ticket inspectors aren't as blunt as they are in the UK

Well the ticket inspector checked our tickets and moved on, so I guess we were in the right spot
However on the way back we accidently sat in the silence zone, and it was only after about 20 min that the inspector told us it was a silence zone, that we thought it might be better to stay silent

Yes, she actually is, it was a mother of one competitor

DYK...
- Throughout the whole competition I was stressed with organising the staff, tired from running around and solving badly, but I still had a totally awesome time!
- As an insider, it's really hard to know how we did as organisers...until I read so many lovely messages to us. Thanks guys for your appreciation, it means a lot to us
- A Lau surprised us all?
- Sébastien compared the 3x3 final to a Pokemon battle between himself, Ron and I because the favourites were 3 Germans, Mats and Alex?
- I didn't manage to spend time with many people that I wanted to?
- For Best Runner I nominate Mattias Rasmussen, Simon Crawford and Leon Schmidtchen? So much energy and efficiency.
- For Best Judge, I nominate the guy who swapped seats with me so that I could solve sideways and not have the sun shining in my eyes? Sorry I can't remember your name.
- For Best Scrambler I nominate Olivér Perge for scrambling most of every day and even working through the ensuing back pain?
- When I found who Jakub Wolniewicz (the best unique pick in fantasy cubing) was in real life, the first thing I did was pop his cube twice while scrambling? That's how I thanked him for the points
- All other staff should be thanked too?
- 4 wheeled suitcase + sloping travelator = such awesome?
- We had 4 keys to our hostel room, but people still had to climb through windows to get in?
- As predicted, I lost my PB streak after 36 competitions with a PB and Evan now has the longest unbroken streak also with 36?
- Naming the cubers who look most stereotypical for their country is a fun game?
- Plechoss said that I look the most English...?
- ...I'm half Chinese?
- I vote for Kim Jokinen as overall winner of the game? Much Finnish.
- Sunday night was super fun...
- Even though it ended with spending most of the rest of the night in hospital...
- Because Adam had a slight misjudgment and needed 8 stitches in his head?
- The paramedics know a lot more about him than they needed/wanted?
- They swerved the ambulance left then right when he asked them to?
- He needs to buy Ollie a new tshirt?
- Mollerz' Spanish alter-ego is called Hamez Moyoy?
- Holzschadeschechtelshenalweiterschagenwechtelwittergeborgenheitezahneschwitz?
- Rød grød med fløde?
- Squirrel?
Bonus: A brief phrase about myself at the major championships I've been to. I'd be interested to see other people's.
Euro 2010: Enthusiastic up-and-coming noob
Worlds 2011: At my peak
Euro 2012: Washed-up-ex-blder-turned-delegate who still wants to win some stuff
Worlds 2013: Holiday happens to include a pretty large cubing comp because cubers and cubing are fun
Euro 2014: I suck at cubing so I'm just going to organise
Worlds 2015: Can't wait to see what this will bring!
