Hmmm sounds fun. Dunno if I can go though. It's about a 5 hour drive for me, and my times suck too much to make it really worth entering

 

[4Chan]

Hell yes.

I love this.

 

[Carson]

That date is very close to Nationals. Being roughly five hours from me, I would certainly attend if it weren't 3 days before I leave for nationals.

There was no other date that I could think of that would match people's school schedule and the regulation 1 month in advance announcement.

YES! Hopefully this comp will take place! (I can finally enter a comp!)

Could there also be 2x2 events?

 

[Edward]

Wish I could be there with you guys, but my mom has something planned around that date .

Where are you located?

North Carolina, just outside charlotte.

 

[Cyrus C.]

Bah, I can't go. I'd need it two weeks earlier, or three weeks later. Boy Scout Jamboree.

 

[DavidSanders]

If need be Andrew, we could move it a little, but no time is better than Summer time. Also, could we trade the magic event for something a little better, but still pretty quick: maybe pyraminx or clock? Maybe even megaminx because of the small amount of people that would do it, so it would not add too much time. Magic just seems so pointless. And at the past comps in GA no one really has been that fast at it to make it a worthwhile event.

 

[cuberkid10]

I think we should keep magic. I'm pretty good at it, and it's a fun and consise event.

 

[Hadley4000]

This satisfies me.

I live just outside of Charlotte too. We could go together.

Hmm, maybe. I'll have to wait and see whats going on when the date gets a little closer.

 

[krnballerzzz]

Any suggestions on the name for the competition?

The "Bob Burton will not get mugged this time" Open?

 

[cuberkid10]

"Marrietta Open" sounds good.
