Thank you to everybody for a great competition!
3x3x3 was the highlight for me. The worst bit was MultiBLD. I don't think I am going to be doing that many cubes again in the future - the time pressures me and I end up forgetting things. In addition, I am not sure I could replicate the 10/10 I did at home again - the scrambles were fairly easy and I solved them quickly, although I had seconds to go at the end. In the future, I'll do about two cubes, maybe three.
Overall, my times were pretty decent.

Thanks everyone for the great comp! First comp outside South-East Asia, so it was a great experienceGoals:
2x2: NR average yeah, could've been faster though. But I'm happy I won all 3 rounds
3x3: sub 10 average, sub 9 single, podium yup
4x4 and OH: make it to the finals, official PBs would be cool I guess yeah, 4x4 went really well in the first round, too bad I completely messed up the finals
5x5: sub 1:20 average maybe nah, got close though
Pyra: podium LOL
Mega: sub 1:10 average, podium (might not be possible though) nope
Clock: sub 10 average lol yeah, but it could've been 7.94
Square-1: NR, sub 15 average yeah, sub 10 single too!
Skewb: sub 6 average nope, failed a lot
3BLD: NR, sub 30 if I solve well NR but no sub 30
MBLD: win yeah
Overall: don't be too shy to talk to peoplewas kinda shy, did talk to some people though
Hope to make it to another comp some time in the future!

2x2 was okay, I missed out on getting a sub 5 average all thanks to plus 2 which bumped it up to 5.56, but that's aright. During 3x3 practice I got a 14 second average with a few sub 13 singles, but I just couldn't replicate it when it counted XD Missed out on a sub-1 4x4 solve by 0.34 of a second, but I got a 1:05 average. Broke my 5x5 PB with a 1:57, first ever sub-2; 2:19 average - not bad. Nearly got a success in BLD, just 2 corners twisted. Got my OH goals too. Overall I think I did well, but I'm determined to do way better next time! Thanks everyone for a great weekend!
