Ohio Open 2009

[CAT13]

I am almost positive that I will be able to come As long as it is on a weekend (which it looks like it is.)

 

[Dene]

I hope to make this competition and make a bit of a trip around the east coast while I'm there.
I have time to spare from 20-30 March. In this time I want to get around as much of the east coast as possible.
If anyone over that way can offer me a place to stay for a night or else recommend a good motel/hostel/whatever to stay for like one or 2 nights that would help me with arranging my plans a lot.
Also if people could show me around when I get there, that would be jolly decent of them.
I especially want to go to New York (of course).
Basically I will go anywhere else that would fit in nicely.

 

[Bob]

When do you plan on going to New York (ie - before or after)?
We should meet up when you get out there, though we will meet before then (SF2009).

 

[Mike Hughey]

Wow, Deney, you're going to be there? Now I really need to try to make it. We can spar off on feet solves!

It's basically going to be a bit of an overwhelming weekend for my family, so I'm going to have to figure out how to make it work. Either I need to have good alternatives for my wife and youngest kid to do while there, or I'll have to come alone for the weekend. No guarantees, but I'll try to be there.

 

[Dene]

Woo! Sounds good Bob and Mike!
Plans are making quick progress. So far it is

LAX --> Penn --> NY --> other stuff --> Ohio --> LAX

 

[ShadenSmith]

You could come to Kentucky. Not that there is much here.

 

[masterofthebass]

Well, you've updated it so you can see my bunny:

LAX -> Philly -> Allentown -> NY -> Philly -> Ohio -> LAX

 

[Dene]

I would like to squeeze Chicago in there if possible. It's your fault for mentioning it

 

[Bob]

Yeah, Tyson and I can probably show you around New York while you are here.

 

[Dene]

Oh Tyson too? Double the coolsies! You guys will almost make up for how much of a loser I am.

 

[Odin]

Dont be harsh on your self Dene! I wish i could come but i dont have the cash for a plane ticket.

 

[Hadley4000]

My mother vetoed the idea. I will not be able to make it

 

[kickinwing2112]

Hopefully Ill be able to make this my first competition

 

[Ganesh1995]

I think I might be there

 

[Swordsman Kirby]

As long as Mike Hughey doesn't do either clock or feet, I'm fine.

I just emailed Jim about my hopes to do both clock and feet.

Aww. Hopefully I can convince Danyang to give me a 5x5BLD attempt. You know those are all you're missing, right?

I'm hoping for a 5x5x5bld too, BUT either in March or in May, both are OK.

I actually wasn't aware of it until oyyq99999 pointed it out to me a few minutes before your post. I'm sorry I never thought of it before!

But actually it might be a little more complicated than that. Are the new rules going to go into effect soon? If so, then we'll both need 6x6x6, 7x7x7, and possibly another multi as well (I assume they're going to relegate the old multi results to a separate list, although I'm not sure - it's all so confusing over on the WCA Forum right now).

My question to Jim was whether or not he thought I could pull off clock, followed by 6x6x6 and 7x7x7, followed by multi and then feet. The schedule has all those events mashed together, so it will be a rush of activity to pull it all off.

Yeah, I would think that he'd drop at least one of those events for time's sake.
