Ugh, no BLD. But I will go

If you go, I'll go

Dear Anders, if there will be 3x3 BLD and Multi, I will gladly come. But I guess this request is too much..

Sorry my Indonesian friends, but the venue will be a most busy and noisy shopping mall and thus most unappropriate for blindfold events. Therefore, no bld events

Well I guess you never went to any Dutch or German event that where on puzzle events, like in Messe Essen ...

In short , although not ideal, most competitors can use ear plug and have no issue with some noise ....Please reconsider to do blindfold

btw the Jakarta Open was is a shopping mall , no problem.....

I would advice to skip megaminx and or square 1 and do 3x3 blindfold instead

Darn, can't BLD be put in without the cost of removing another event?

 

[Jani]

No BLD and the time limit in sq-1 to get avg of 5 is 1 minute

I'm really reconsidering it now, since my result wont be so much different with what happened in Jakarta open

The list of events reflects the interests of the Singaporean cubers. I am but a pawn in the game played by the commercial organisers and the local cubing community.

A tentative time schedule is posted in the Singaporean forum (http://www.rubiks.com.sg/forum/index.php/topic,509.msg7348.html#new) and will shortly be included in a more official competition webpage.

Yes, it was indeed a problem. Suddenly, during 4x bf, someone started to play drums very loudly which caused the competitors to complain. The issue was resolved by changing the format of the event from "best of two" to "best of three".

 

[blah]

Singaporeans suck at BLD.

Hey Anders, lets say I register for 5x5, but later on cannot obtain a 5x5 before the competition, can I register again without the 5x5 as a listed event?

If you, for instance, register for 5x5x5 and later change your mind, please send me an e-mail or pm where you cancel your registration for that event. If you register again, you will get two entries, and I will be confused!

Woohoo, time to ditch BLD practice for a month and a half or so.
