The events will be done one round at a time, each round lasting 3 days.

Spoiler: How to submit times

When the competition starts, you will receive a private DM with scrambles.

Make sure to reply to that DM with your times. Do not submit your times by replying to this thread.

Spoiler: Rules

Rule 1: All WCA regulations apply.


Rule 2: If the cube is very close to being a +2 or a DNF and you aren't recording, take a picture of the cube and send it to me in the same DM that contains scrambles. Make sure to take the picture from far away and don't touch the cube. If you do touch the cube, then you will get a +2 penalty.


Rule 3: You don't have to record, but if you are unsure of a penalty and you aren't recording, the solve is given the penalty. Thus, recordings is recommended. Exception: Rule 2
