Macclesfield Open 2016 [UK] - 30-31 July

So we're at the travel lodge and they've messed up and we're without a room! Has this happened to anybody else?

Send me a text if you're about 07719233315.

EDIT: And we're in! See you all tomorrow.

Worst competition so far for times; I had so many penalties. I almost had one average round of 3x3 but +2ed an 11. It was fun though!

3x3: Sub-11.5 average/sub-9.5 single
4x4: PB average
2x2: Sub-2 single
3OH: Sub-18 average
Nowhere near any of them. I didn't even make 2x2/4x4 finals, which I didn't even think would need to be goals!


/sub-16 single
3BLD: success
MultiBLD: success
Did all of these. 3BLD was bad but the 14.63 OH single was great. Did safety on Multi but still didn't get 100% - yet I still beat my unofficial PB.

Goals for next competition:
3x3: Sub-10 average
OH: podium
Multi: 8 points
 
Great competition. Thanks to the organisers and delegates for their hard work in putting this together.

I thought this was a good venue and would be glad to go to another event in Macc if there was another to be held there in the future.

Cheers all.
Took the words right out of my onscreen keyboard. Great venue. Well planned comp and well run. Everything seemed to finish on time or early. Macclesfield is a fun place to go out but maybe the pubs could be more strict on the riff-raff they let in.

  • Mark got a 5BLD
  • I got more PBs than expected
  • OH sucks
  • Sleep is overrated
  • Adam set a pyraminx PB
  • 3.35s
 
Goals time:
  • 4x4: PB single and average (which means my real goal is to get at least one sub 1:30 single)
  • MBLD: 4/4
  • BLD: PB single
  • 6x6: Get a single
  • Skewb: Sub 10 single
First competition for a while for me and the boy... looking forward to seeing you all again. :)

Yay! Almost got all of those -- just missed MBLD by 1 point. Now I want to go for 5 next time.

Great competition. Really good venue, everything ran to time, nice to see lots of new competitors and old friends and lots of fun. Congrats to Alex, for winning 3x3, and to everyone else for all the NRs and medals -- lots of impressive stuff. And thanks, as ever, to the organisers for doing such a sterling job.
