You're lucky. I wake up every morning wishing to open my eyes to Stefan Pochmann.

I've seen him in my dreams.

Hey,

I lost a black Maru 4x4 and a black QJ tiled 4x4 at nationals, it was in the big theater. If anyone found them please tell me, thanks. My name is gabe, short for gabriel. Thanks.

Also please email me or pm me if you find them, or are willing to give them back -.-

I don't think anyone mentioned this yet, Skyler's pillowed 6x6x6 went missing as well. He was letting people play with it on the first day, but he never got it back. The second last person who had it was Tristan, and he said he let someone else use it, so who whoever got it from him better find it. Sky built that 6x6x6, and now he has to spend loads of hours making a new one.

 

[blah]

YES YES YES SUB-1000 FOR MAGIC

yeah i heard about this... it's just stupid because the cube is practically useless to whoever took it. if it's ever seen at a competition people will know it was a stolen cube. the cube clearly has a lot more value to the person who built it than as just another 6x6x6 for someone else.

As trusting and open this community is, people have to remember that at large events, it is important to keep track of your stuff. Unfortunately, not everyone is honest, and there are also people from outside who may come in and take stuff or cause trouble. I was at this Asian American Festival in San Francisco and random homeless people would come up and steal some of the merchandise on sale.

Anyway, always keep an eye on your stuff, and if you have things of value, I wouldn't lend out a bunch of things at once. You need to be able to keep track of everything.

Also, with the sheer number of people there, the chance of someone borrowing a cube, timing a solve with their stackmat, getting called to compete, hurriedly dropping both in their backpack, and then forgetting what they were doing before getting called is non-trivial. If you're lending your cubes, you should be very careful to keep track at all times of who has what. That's why I always keep everything in my backpack and only take out what I'm competing with, plus maybe one puzzle that someone wants to borrow.

4x4 BLD: Mike Hughey (3 years)

5x5 BLD?

Whoops. Fixed.

>_<
Why did everyone but Takao suck at Magic in the 2nd round?

Because everyone sucks at magic.

 

[deathbypapercutz]

While we're on the topic of lost things, I'll ask again: did any of the finalists leave a stackmat timer on the southern table in the small auditorium downstairs? If it was you, PM me and we'll figure it out.

 

[~Phoenix Death~]

Did yuo know
-I wanted to go. But who'd share a room with a random 13-year old Asian who subs-30 :'(

 

[jms_gears1]

well while ppl that didnt go to the comp are posting.
Did you Know
-Andrew Kang is a gay fish?

 

[Tyson]

Because he likes fish sticks?

 

[Sa967St]

Because he likes fish sticks?

yeah, in his mouth

[Swordsman Kirby]

Tim, Dan, and Michael now have the top 3 highest number of solves in one competition.

YEAH WORLD RECORD.

 

[TeddyKGB]

That makes sense

It's funny to se how the 3x3 results deteriorates from round to round, the 16 place time in the final would only have been sufficient for the 62 spot in the first round. Maybe people got tired

am want see more final vids.

would it be feasible for next time to let the competitor pick out 2/3 songs and play them while the person is solving? Instead of the silence.
