Australian Nationals 2015 - Melbourne

[Dene]

Hey all

We can finally announce Australian Nationals 2015! We are back in Melbourne for what we expect to be our biggest competition ever.

Date: 3-4 October
Times: Saturday 7:30am-7:30pm; Sunday 7:30am-5:30pm.
Location: Camberwell Grammar School
Events: Every event, except feet and clock
Schedule: Available here


This time we will be in a much bigger room at Camberwell Grammar. However because we don't want to bite off more than we can chew we have a limit of 150 competitors so it's first in, first served. Please don't register if you don't actually plan on attending. It's incredibly selfish to make others miss out. First sort out your plans, then register.

EDIT: The schedule is up, and we will be having four rounds of 3x3 for the first time in Australia!

why

Srry you're the only one that actually cares (others might say they do but they're lying). Experiences in the past have made me give up on clock... it just sucks up way too much time.

And 4BLD, 5BLD, MBLD, FMC, 6x6, and 7x7 don't?

10.00 hard cutoff ez

I'm thinking in terms of no one being able to scramble accurately on a consistent basis, and the fact it burns a lot of time and can't be mixed in with anything else (whereas I can easily play around with scheduling for bigbld).

If you really want clock, learn to scramble well, get someone else to learn to scramble well, and convince the Sydney guys to hold it

I should actually make this one lads.

tbh I've been practicing clock a fair bit and would've liked at least one round, but if 4 rounds of 3x3 are guaranteed then who cares lol.

FMC is best of 1?

Seriously? Even if clock was being held, it'd only be one round and would be a very small part of the competition. I don't think that's a good reason to miss out. Besides, as long as I'm organizing comps occasionally, there will be clock in Australia

What do you have to do to be a organiser or delegate?

Yessssssssss Brock!!! Haven't seen you since last nats, which is way too long :3

Organise a comp plx

Lol you want clock more than me, why don't you organize one? Besides, once I get a decent clock avg in comp I'll be less motivated to get it happening more in Australia

 

[Dene]

What do you have to do to be a organiser or delegate?

Anyone can organise, you just have to be reliable and responsive. Tim has done it so many times, he can guide anyone through the process.

Being a delegate means being responsible and trustworthy, and having a commitment to the spirit and regulations of the WCA. Generally delegates are people who are seen as leaders in a community.

Haven't posted on here for a while, hopefully I can make it there. My last comp was well over a year ago so I've got high hopes for this
