Toronto Open, Spring 2010

And yeah, it was a nice comp in terms of results, but we don't have much to say for the Did You Know lists.
lolno

Did you know that...

- Bill was trying to take close-up pictures of people's eyes?
- he entered pyraminx without knowing a real method, and he used his own method which was similar to the one Bob taught him at the Canadian Open?
- I was stupid and messed around with the tension on my 3x3 and made it too loose?
- I got 2 pops in the first 3x3 round? (my A-ii has never popped before) clicky
- news reporters from CBC and CTV were there to get interviews with Harris Chan?
- one of the reporters was watching me in the first 3x3 round (which I completely failed because I was being careful not to get anymore pops) and we had an epic interview which wasn't aired?
"you just solved the cube in 14 seconds..."
"yeah, it was horrible"
O_o "what's a good solve like?"
"about 12 seconds I guess"
"have you heard of Harris Chan?
"uhh, of course."
"what do you think of him?"
"he's cool"
"is he good?"
"yeah he's fast... only the fastest in Canada, right?"
*awkward pause* "thanks"
- Bill can pronounce my middle name correctly? (His response: "of course, I'm Chinese." My response: *thinks "but I'm Japanese..."*)
- LOL I FAIL AT 3x3
- my first megaminx solve was a DNF (was on CPLL at 1:35ish, then I popped in the middle of a corner rotating commutator and messed it up and had to go back and fix it)?
- It was a 3:30ish solve but I DNF'd it because it was suck?
- now I have two DNF official means (7x7x7, and now megaminx) because of DNF singles due to pops?
- I didn't even know that I made the second round of OH, then somehow I made OH finals?
- my times in the OH finals were super consistent? (35.xx, 37.xx, 24.xx, 31.xx, 22.xx) hell yeah.
- some of the kids there were loljudges and lolscramblers?
- Zachary still says "AND... EXAMINE!" while lifting up the cube cover?
- *Jeremy does a handstand*
- Emily gets easily confused at Team BLD?
- blimp = soccer mirror
- Excalibur = cow farm mirror
- U... uh 2....3
- some people finally decided to start signing the back of the Canadian Cubing shirt? (the front is all filled out)
- beast OLL
- thermometer.

Maybe you're just not clear enough. :mad:

And the interview was pure win.
 
The results are up. 13.80 for me in the final =)

Also, my goal was to beat 5.23 in 2x2 (that was my worlds average). First round I succeeded, with a 5.22! Then a 5.10 in the second round, and a disappointing average in the final of 5.24 (haha). My last seven 2x2 averages have ranged from 5.10 to 5.67...the next slowest after 5.67 was 5.33. Pretty consistent I'd say...

I wish my times were consistent :p my times in the OH finals were lol

Ooh, I forgot to mention the mystery event in the Did You Knows. It was speed-assembling a disassembled storebought, and I won it with a time of 1:20.xx. 'Twas fun, and I got some sort of 4x4 ES clone. :D

DYK
-There was a fire outside right before the awards ceremony o.O
-Bill now ranks 4th last on WCA for pyraminx average
-that I'm a terrible teacher :(
-my judge didn't reset the timer and made me lose a 3.4x solve (on 2x2 of course) :mad: well at least it wasn't DNF
