Dutch Nationals on November 15

[Ron]

Hi guys,

Dutch Nationals will be held on Saturday November 15, 2008 in Zwolle.
Details on http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/c.php?i=Netherlands2008
Competition website on http://www.speedcubing.com/events/nk2008/

For the record, this competition is open to competitors from all countries.
The competition will be held at a large fair, so it will be similar to German Nationals.
But we will have more room.

It would be great to meet some Belgian and German competitors...

Have fun,

Ron

There is one big difference with German Nationals: there is no V-cubes competition planned on the next day.

Erik and I were asked by the Dutch V-Cube distributor to perform demonstrations. Details are not clear yet, but just maybe a race is a possibility?

We have now a free space , we are sponsored by the venue, so we do not have room for demonstrations or a race on Saturday. But there is room on Sunday!!! I guess as long as the distributor is willing to pay. Ask Ron for the contact information.

btw please do not break our agreement with the venue , we have now a free spot because we have no sponsors and are not promoting any cube manufacturer.

I will call you today about this. I don't really understand what you do/don't want to happen

I think he means they are getting the booth/slot/space at the fair for free because they are not selling/promoting anything, just holding a competition. If you were to promote V-cubes, you would be getting a free space to do the same as everyone else who paid for their spaces.

Ack:
promote V-cubes = you have to pay for the space, Still possible for Sunday!

Maybe next year ,we will use two days , then there might be room for a 6x6 or 7x7 competition. In any case it would help if the V-cube distributor contact us -organising team- , so we can arrange things in the future. I would appreciate any initiative as long as you contact us, I repeat, so we can arrange things.

btw the V-cube distributor is very welcome at the Den Hague Open 29 Nov!!!

The V-cube distributor has his own (I assume paid) stand where Erik and I will be doing promo-work. We will make sure not to come to close to the competition area

So in that case, we can also do an unofficial competition on Sunday -official competitions must be announced a month in advance.

To alll, on Saturday you must be available for the competition, I do not like Germany repeated where a few must work very hard because other cubers where on the V-cube stand. So - I guess Ron also- will be strict , when you are called for and are not on the stand you risks to be disqualified for all attempts. So I suggest you do the promotion on Sunday since you must be close at the competition area.

@ Arnaud
Can you inform that the V-cube distributor is very welcome at the Den Hague Open 29 Nov with the 6x6 and 7x7 competition. I will charge 4 Euro (lunch)
