Teenage cubers discussion

David isn't really interested in traveling for competitions anymore. You can ask, and he might do ST. Louis, but don't count on it. Shaden and or Walker will come down (bringing the equipment you need) if you provide lodging, money for wear and tear on the equipment, and travel reimbursement. I'm also going to be buying a large amount of equipment soon that I can bring.
I asked Shaden earlier, and he said it was too far for him, and David "Wσner" didn't respond :P

I haven't asked Walker though, sounds like a possibility. I found a venue in University City that could probably accommodate 50, and I'm scared that if I do more than that we'll have to keep the events list down to a round of 3x3 and a round of clock lol
 
How's school? First day of high school for me. Orientation stuff, so didn't learn much. Meet some cubers at school?(just to keep this somewhat cubing related)

School's good. First day here as well. My teachers are great, I got all the teachers I wanted. I already have a few friends who cube, but some guy did walk up to me and ask if im Kian and if I'm a fast cuber who uses roux, so that was pretty cool. Other than that, I'm starting a cubing club soon so that's going to be fun.
 
3rd week of school for me. Yay sophomore. I know about 10 guys who can solve it in under a minute and an army of seniors who can solve it in under 5 minutes.
 
I started school a few days ago but yesterday I met a cuber that I talked to for like 10 seconds at a comp and didn't even know went to my school(he averages around 20 seconds). Also met a few people who can solve the cube but aren't that fast (1:00+).
 
Some new friend of mine is sub 30 but says that he uses PLL, but didn't say CFOP.
I'm starting to learn CMLL, because math at school is no longer a challenge and I have free time(-.-)
 
Whoooooo, just got back from a cruise that high school freshmen take at my school... sorry, not freshmen. We use the term fresh people. I actually like that, because then the girls aren't freshMEN. Makes sense. Gender neutral words are great. Anyhoo, I went to my friend's house right before and played Smash 4 with him for about an hour, trying out different matchups with Villager (ZSS, Luigi, Toon Link, Pikachu, Sheik). His goal was to beat my Toon Link as Villager. We did 5 matches today with that matchup. He lost all of them. So he failed the test. We shall try again Sunday. We headed back to school, got our dean's phone number, and headed out. I brought my YuXin 5x5, and a ton of people were really impressed. But you guys probably know the whole deal. Carry a Rubik's Cube around, instant respect from many people. But the way we got home just grinds my gears. We could have easily taken the local train and transferred to the express about 3 stops later, but instead we had to walk 10 blocks to get to the express. In the rain. YAAAAY!
 
Looks like my middle school's auditorium is a good enough size to host a comp. It's got to be a small one though, about a maximum of 100 people. So far I've met one person who cubes, and they average about the same speed as me (high 20s). SoCal can't have too many comps, can it?

I think there's a limit on how often you can have comps that are within a certain distance of each other.
