... you had nothing to do with my plans.

Ha. good. But near the end there, I feel as though you were hinting that if I paid for half, you'd go. But whatever.

-during Dave's extremely unlucky solve, a woman sitting in front tried to pick up the piece, and the whole audiance shouted "don't touch it!" ??

that was Justin's mom

She says it wasn't.

I had to say goodbye to Forte this morning Bye again Forte!

I think it was the blonde lady sitting in front of her.

Forte yelled to not touch it the loudest (or was it because I was sitting behind him)?

Also, I was the only one who cheered for roux because,
a.) waffle wasn't there, I thought I should represent for him (lol)
b.) it was really quiet for a while after he asked about it.

Speaking of which, to whomever stole Ball in a Cup from me on Saturday night, shame on you. We've had people steal stackmats from us before, but Ball in a Cup is low. I left it out for people to play with while we were busily working away at competition stuff for everyone. As we were packing up, i went over to retrieve it only to find it was MIA.

Exactly.

/not knock it over

Did you know?
-Brendon asked me why I always close my eyes and look down at the end of solves, so we decided to try and do the opposite?

DYK:
-a random kid dropped my ES 2x2 and it exploded right before 2x2 semifinals
-I was so worried about my 2x2 that my first 5x5 solve was 3:20~ instead of 2:20, but Daniel Ho actually managed to fix it, although I didnt make the cutoff anyway
-I popped my square-1 during a solve and accidentally cancelled my parity but got over a minute anyway
-I DNF-ed my first two 7x7 solves thinking that i can do better but ended up getting barely sub-10 and was beaten badly by a seven year old

[Dave Campbell]

Was my original post not clear enough?

Talk about stealing candy from a kid....I noticed the results are posted on the WCA website.

Christians 7x7 results are screwed up....

They should be 8:02.75 , 7:31.30, DNF (cube blew up)... for 6th place..

But instead it just shows the 8:02, and then this guy 'Cody' in sixth place has his 7:31.30 time and his DNF and then of course a DNS in the 3rd since 'Coby' probably wasn't even there (I assume)....

what happened(sure its just a typo or something) and how can I correct....thanks.

BTW: the proof of his 7:31.30 solve is here..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRWNAWoDqis

A simple "can you please check Christians times for 7x7, i think they are incorrect" would suffice. You can always use the email address from which you received the registration confirmation to contact the organizers for such items instead of a general message board.
