Indiana Live Results

Sorry to anyone who may be trying to watch, the venue's internet doesn't seem to be allowing us to broadcast.

Congratulations to Phil Thomas, who got a 9.40 3x3 single solve earlier, placing him 2nd in North America / 12th in the world.

Was it a PLL Skip like his other sub 10?

And did someone get it on video?

Edit: And wasn't he already 2nd in North America/12th in the world? :p

Along with Harris of course.

Did you know?

- Jim wants you to ask him about his trunk and his car keys?
- The parity fairy really likes me?
- The parity fairy doesn't know how to parity a UFO, but managed to give me a scramble that caused me to have parity anyway?
- Shaden, Carson, and Jim stayed up all night for pretty much no reason (other than maybe to help out the parity fairy)?
- I went to bed really early - just 2:00 - so I could have a good night's rest of 4 1/2 hours to be fresh for BLD?
- I still managed to DNF my 4x4x4 BLD with just two corners twisted?
- We only had time for one 4x4x4 BLD solve and none of the other side events?
- Nobody really cared because we managed big rounds of 4x4x4 and 5x5x5 in a very short time, and everyone had fun?
- Half of our competitors were at their very first cubing competition?
- I could never run a competition without the help of my very competent, very experienced daughters?
- My daughters brought a friend to help, who was great at judging for her first competition, and they even taught her to solve Magic between rounds, so it was her first official competition as a competitor?
- It's really nice to be scrambling 5x5x5 and then suddenly get relieved by both Isaac Wappes and Phil Thomas at the same time, and watch all the cubes suddenly get almost instantly scrambled?
- I could also never have pulled the competition off without help from my coworkers, Colin (whose bluetooth printer is awesome), Scott, and Brian?
- Jim, Shaden, and Carson are really great to work with for running a competition?
- We didn't have time for mystery events, but Shaden tried my "BLD delayed by distractions" event after the competition and got a successful solve? (7:42 to memorize a cube then cover it, then pull apart a wire puzzle, then order some number tiles in numerical order, then pull on the blindfold, uncover the cube, and solve it)
 
Yes, great competition. BTW, Phil's 9.40 single was an OLL skip. I caught on video this loudspeaker announcement: "We seemed to have misplaced a magic scramble sheet, so if anyone sees them lying around, bring them up here."
It was my first, but I hope to get a cube club going with my high school and maybe use that as a venue.

Haha yeah. Still, quite an accomplishment.. this breaks the tie, at least.

We will hopefully be updating this regularly. There should also be a webcam running for most of the competition. 1 week to go :)

Btw love the letter type! Wish I had it .....
Are you referring to the banner at the top of the page? Complements to Bryan Logan for that, and setting up the website, etc.

If you are referring to live results, what is running on that site is an updated version I'll hopefully be putting some finishing touches on soon... and will make publicly available.

- Jim wants you to ask him about his trunk and his car keys?
This is a lie.
 
I had a great time at the competition! It was run very well. I was at a lock-in the night before, so my friends and I got an hour of sleep, but we still had fun. Thanks to Mike, Shaden, Carson, and Jim for running the competition. I enjoyed helping out, even if it meant scrambling 4x4's and 5x5's for about 17 hours. I hadn't done magic in 2 years so I borrowed Nick Sia's magic and won. =] It was nice bringing my friends to their first competition, and I hope to be there next year!
Edit: Also, thanks to Shaden for letting me borrow 3x3 orange stickers for my illegal cube. My friend thought it was unfair that no one said anything until he started using it. =]
