US Nationals 2010

I might be able to come. I'll be in New York City during this time, so I'll try to convince my dad to let me come. Who is this other Oregon cuber? I have to know. Also, looks like the qualification times have changed. I thought you had to be like sub-16 to move on, what happened?

Explain how your need to know trumps their privacy.

Qualification rounds were eliminated, and everyone just competes in round 1 and top X move on.

I am curious which cubers are from which states as well. Why can't that be displayed? Is it seriously a privacy issue?

I've seen a few instances in the past where people do not want their kids' locations known.

Well then they should request to have their info removed. Or during registration have a checkbox saying "I don't want my state shared publicly". I'd guess the people interested in seeing state info outnumbers the people who don't want their info shared. Since you have age info, then why not release state info on people 18+ who registered themselves? I suppose saying it's a privacy issue is one way of dealing with the situation, but I hate that (especially when registration said nothing about privacy, as far as I can remember).

So that fact that you're over 18 and the site doesn't say anything about privacy, should we give out your location, e-mail address, and birthday?

If you want to find cubers near you, that is one of CubingUSA's main functions. You could email the other cubers listed on that map, and ask if they are going to nationals. No guarantee that they are registered with CubingUSA though, so you might be out of luck.

Something is said about it:
WCA Regulations said:
2d) All information (except: name, country, date of birth, gender, selected events and competition results) must be used for the competition only, and may only be given to other organisations/persons after permission from the competitor.

So, email is a no-no, and state is technically a no-no but we aren't correlating individual people with states at least. On the other hand, we could release birthdates for all competitors who have competed under the 2008 regulations or later regardless of age, since this is supposed to be "public" information under the regulations. In fact, the WCA already makes this information publicly available anyway (even for competitors who haven't competed under the 2008 and later regulations, which violates 2007 and earlier regulations).

I didn't mean it like that. I just thought it would be nice to know who other good/experienced/slightly involved cubers are. I am by no means demanding, I just want to build a stronger cubing base from my area. Man, Bryan, you are on melons so hard right now.

I was pointing out two things:

1) Your words didn't match your intent, which is reinforced by you agreeing to that.
2) I was giving you an explanation of why the information wouldn't be released.

Can anyone else translate this for me? I honestly have no idea what it means. Remember, I'm from Minnesota and I'm older.
