[Torch]

Registration closes tonight. I'm hyped!

 

[Aussie]

Registration ends in less than an hour, if you wish to compete, this is your last chance to register! Keep in mind we do not accept walk-ins.

 

[JustinTimeCuber]

There would actually be a chance that I could come but registration is closed. I probably can't but I theoretically could. I'm pretty sad about this D:

HYPE.

Also, if you see me there, say hi! I will probably write YouCubing on my nametag (if there are nametags.)

 

[cuberkid10]

Will there be a CubeComps for this? I like instant gratification.

On another note, I finally found my 6x6 piece! Now everyone can see how much I don't do big cubes.

 

[Aussie]

Will there be a CubeComps for this?

Yep, it's actually on cubecomps right now!

It happens to be happening! Tomorrow, I wake up at 4:30 AM to head out the the comp. Curse you, time zones!!!!!!!!!

This comp was great. I had tons of fun, and did really well!

My results:

2x2: Decent, 6.04 average. Like last time, I was really close to making finals.

3x3 Round 1: Amazing. I got a 22 Average, making to Round 2.

3x3 Round 2: Great, although deeply disappointed. If only I didn't fail that last solve, (It was a 36 -_-) it could have been Sub 20 Average. anyway, I also got a 16, which was really cool. Average was also a 22.

4x4: Great, did really well. I got a 1:29 average, and a counting 1:23. Also, if you didn't know, 4x4 is my favorite event, so I'm really happy with how this turned out.

Pyraminx: BJ. 14 Average, not even PB -_-

Skewb: 11 Average, 7th place. Yay!

 

[Aussie]

Thank you guys soo much for attending and helping out with Judging and Scrambling! The competition ran perfectly!

My Results!

3x3 Round 1
Expectations: 18.XX average, 16.XX single.
Results: 16.52 average and 13.40 single.
Rank: 12th
Wasn't expecting that at all, I rarely get 16.XX averages at home!

3x3 Round 2
Expectations: 15.XX average, 11.XX single.
Results: 17.51 average, 15.61 single.
Rank: 14th
Mehh, kind of flopped in round 2. My DNF killed me!

6x6 Round 1
Expectations: 2:50.XX mean, 2:44.XX single.
Results: 3:11.11 mean and 3:05.34 single.
Rank: 5th
Beat my competition PB single by 0.09 seconds. Other than that, I was very disappointed with my results.

6x6 Round 2
Expectations: 3:10.XX mean, 2:59.XX single.
Results: 3:02.20 mean, 2:54.79 single.
Rank: 5th
Finally, a sub-3 single! I just wish it wasn't a +2... If it wasn't, I would have jumped up a place.

7x7 Combined Finals
Expectations: 5:45.XX mean, 5:2X.XX single.
Results: DNF mean and 4:54.85 single.
Rank: 7th
Beat my overall PB single by 30 seconds! DNF'd second solve, messed up inner-layer algorithm so bad it caused the whole cube to get messed up.

My favourite part was the double rainbow on the highway.

DOUBLE COMPLETE RAINBOW

gj double rainbow, my dad and I were trying to find the triple rainbow xD
Anywhooooozers:
2x2: 3.75 single and 5.98 avg (take that, b0ssguy23! lol), would be good even at home.
3x3: WAT SUB20 SINGLE and FINALLY an official sub-30 avg. Also would be great at home.
4x4: Overall PB single and ao5. Need I say more?
6x6: Chris will know, he judged. SO CLOSE but overall PB single.
Pyra: EPIC FAIL, gained me the title of +2perman. Not even sub-10 >-< Kill me now
Skewb: Idec about Skewb, 13 13 13 13 8 were the times lol. Absolutely awful.
Well then. 3 notfails, one halffail, and two fails.

 

[Torch]

Goals:
2x2: Sub-4.5 avg
3x3: PB single (sub-10.96), sub-12.5 avg
4x4: sub 1 average, beat Chris Tran
BLD: sub-1:30, successful mean
Skewb: sub-10 average

2x2: Nope
3x3: Nope
4x4: Nope and nope
BLD: Nope and nope
Skewb: Yes

Despite that, I'm happy with my results. I got PB 3x3 average and BLD single, and my Skewb and Pyraminx times were awesome.

Niiiiiiice solve. Love everyone's reaction in it!

 

[cuberkid10]

Goals:

2x2: If I don't get a sub-3 average, I may cry. Especially after my last competition. Maybe podium?
3x3: Sub-11 average hopefully. It would be great to beat my 10.62, but I'm not expecting it. More sub-10 singles?
4x4: Sub-45 average, sub-40 single.
Skewb: Don't DNF. (I really hate Skewb)
Pyraminx?: Sub-6 average.

I may have to pull out of 6x6, because of course I lost a piece last week. >.<

2x2:
3x3: I got 2 sub-11 averages, 1 being PB, so I'm happy. Don't talk to me about round 1. I also got 5 sub-10 singles, which was cool. But I failed my chance at a sub-9 single when my F-perm had a major lock up on my last solve of finals. One day I will get a sub-10 average!
4x4: I'm pretty happy with my average. Sub-40 single will happen someday.
Skewb: Uh. I don't even know how I podiumed, much less got a sub-8 average. I learned Sarah's intermediate 3 days before the competition.
Pyraminx: Yes!
6x6: Those are my actual PB's, so I'm very happy with them. I don't do big cubes at all.

Overall, great competition Aussie! It was well run and I think this may have been my favorite competition so far. On the 2x2 side, this competition gives me so much motivation to finish learning CLL and move on to EG-1 and someday EG-2.
