cube comp in Florida

[calekewbs]

Hey all, I am attempting to put together a competition in Florida. If all goes to plan, it will be held at the University of Florida. I just need to get a gauge of how many people are interested. So yeah!

 

[Rubik's Exer]

So ours is off?

 

[calekewbs]

same one. I just did a little research. Hopefully, it will be an official comp instead of an unofficial one.

[calekewbs]

I'm still working on those details. First I need to see how many people would be interested in going. can I count you in?

 

[tanner forrest]

yah sure it depends when and where and how much it will cost and what puzzles are going to be solved.....i need to know in the next couple of days or so when it will be so i can plan ahead and be able to go....thanks!!!

 

[tanner forrest]

go ahead and count me in!

 

[Feanaro]

Count me in, but only possibly. I still would like to know a date soon. But I'm pretty sure I'll go.

I would love to go, but don't really have a way to get there, I am the only one around Space Coast that gets good enough times to go... You should do it Orlando... so it is closer

I am interested, but doubtfully I would be able to go. I don't think I could ever get my parents to take me.

Has he gone yet? That doesn't mean it is his first if he goes to one before it, or he might want to go to one closer, and in Florida, it might just be.

You guys are talking about possibly having an official competition, there's no way you could have one before the Houston Open. And if he's not going, it would be good to let us know.

Hey, hey I resent that statement. I lived in the Space Coast/Brevard County up until a month ago and only moved for school to UCF. I mean a 25-30 average is nothing, but I would have gone to a comp either way.

@calekewbs I emailed you back from you messaging me from CubingUSA, and I would love to go. I just need a date preferably 2-3 weeks in advance to take off work.

My friend is in his sophomore year this year, he did the same thing. Just learned today that he can solve one too lol... second there I thought you were him, but then saw the average... he can solve it in like a minute and a half, said he got a LL skip for sub-1:00.

I didn't mean that I was the only one by the way. I meant to say only one I know... didn't read over what I typed. o.o

We are pretty much the same, I have better records according to your sig on the cubes... but barely; 3.08 single on 2x2, LL skip, not sure about averages though... 16.14 LL skip on 3x3, 16.34 full step solve, 21.05 average of 5, done today BTW, 4x4 is barely under 2 minutes, like 1:56 PLL skip, corner parity though, not sure about averages. Megaminx I don't really like.

I would not compete in the 6x6-7x7 if there is one, it takes me forever to do those.
