Does anyone have a spare clock (preferably a Rubik's brand) ?

If we are in different groups, you are welcome to use my Rubik's brand. It is really rather bad (but definitely Rubik's brand). In fact, you are also welcome to lube it if you want...?

But seriously, if possible you may use it.

I have 4 spare Rubik's Clocks. 2 of them are OK, one is pretty bad and one was literally unturnable until I took it apart and lubed it, now it's just pretty bad. I think all of them can be ok if you take them apart, clean and lubricate properly, and then break them in a lot. You're welcome to buy one, I have sold 5 clocks in the past, all for £10 each, I will happily do the same for you.

Can I buy the other spare one for £10?

Is there a price reduction for the pretty bad ones?

Awesome, I will definitely buy of your one of yours, I'm not if I would have the time and the motivation to take it apart and set it up, especially the breaking in part (as I don't do clock often).
Thanks anyway.

 

[Mollerz]

No price reduction sorry! I'll bring them all along.

I'll find you Sunday morning if you still have any left

Any chance of a late entry? I can't seem to sign up on the WCA site.

I believe registration closed for good earlier today, sorry.

You still have time to register for next month's UK competition, though.

 

[bubbagrub]

Right. It's getting close now. So, goals:

• 3x3: sub-20 / sub-25
• OH: get an average
• FMC: sub-35
• 3BLD and MBLD: Get a success (please!)
• Skewb: sub-10 / sub-20
• Have fun

Not sure which of those is the least realistic...

My other goal is to convince my son to do enough practice before the comp so that he's pleased with his times. We'll see...

 

[~Adam~]

Goals:

Get a pb. Any one will do but presumably 3BLD as long as I get a success for the 1st time in 3 comps (what have I been doing?).
As is often the case I haven't been cubing at all recently.

Somehow manage to run a comp successfully with arguably too many people for the venue =P

Get 100 competitors to do 3x3. Might have to drag a few parents up to solve to get that 4th round in.

Not have to ask for judges multiple times every group ;-)

 

[ronaldm]

Goals:

3x3: PB/PB (so under 55.29/50.40)
2x2: PB/PB (so under 14.14/11.67)
Pyra: make the avg cut
FMC: if I find a solution < 50 moves you'll see my saturday-morning happy dance!

Disclaimer: with holiday and moving house as well this month, don't expect too much of me

Let me add to that:

As I'm quite certain I won't survive any first rounds, some other goals are
- moar judging
- be even quicker in updating cubecomps than at TGN

 

[JediJupiter]

One week to go!

Goals:
(Wait I've only practised 3x3)

• sub 14.5 average on 3x3
• beat PBs for pyra and 4x4
• have an awesome time

Thanks! And I'm not much faster than you, if your comp PB average is average for you.

 

[LucidCuber]

Anyone selling an AoChuang/HuaChang?

 

[lejitcuber]

Please say that the pyra/skewb finals have 2 groups so they can have an extra round

 

[Kev43]

Hey 4 rounds of 3x3 and 3 rounds of 2x2 and 4x4 that's awesome =D I didn't practice much though.

I somehow lost my clock sooooo I might need to borrow one if I make it in time on Saturday morning !

Train tickets will be booked soon! Anyone else taking the 7:15 high-speed train on Sunday from King's Cross?
