Will there be an AfterLogan/Party?

 

[Bryan]

OK. Had a bug in the registration script where it was charging for potential events, I fixed that and refunded people who overpaid.

Registration will be closed on Monday. Please register before then. It's highly annoying to the organizers for people who register late.

If you're not paying online, try to bring exact change. It's also highly annoying to the organizers to have to make a bunch of change for everyone.

I would have gone any other weekend, but it looks like KU's first football game is on the same day

Hopefully there will be another one in the Midwest soon.

I'll try to make it to this. I need a chance at redemption after my disastrous 3x3 performance at Nats.

 

[DavidWoner]

Can't go. Labor Day Weekend is only convenient for people who work regular jobs.

It's going to just be an afterparty. I can't go.
Apparently 6.5 hours is too far for my dad to drive me, lol
Too bad I get my permit RIGHT AFTER the comp...

Does anyone have a magic I could buy? I can't find mine anywhere...

 

[izovire]

Hi, you're in luck. I have a magic for $7.00 (and it's unopened from the package) I am also selling a ton of other puzzles. So if you're going to Omaha next week I will be there. if not please check out my YouTube channel, there I have information on my store and how you can order from me, thanks!

 

[JTW2007]

I'll be there.

I've never competed BLD before, and I don't think I have a blindfold lying around the house. Will it be possible to borrow one at the comp, or do I need to buy one before Saturday?

 

[RyanO]

You can borrow one of mine.

Ryan already answered, but the official answer that applies to all competitions just for other people's sake: You can borrow as long as you're not holding up the competition by doing so.

This applies to blindfolds and puzzles. Stuff can really get slowed down when you have 2 or 3 people that can't be in the same group.

 

[Ravi]

Great, thanks.

 

[Bryan]

Lunch from a sub sandwich shop in town, with cookies, chips and soda for $5 per person will be available.

I've got more than 1 blindfold, so Ravi borrowing mine shouldn't cause any delay.

Did you know?
...people normally don't talk to me, but they talk to my wife during competitions?
...the media interviewed my wife, because "he looks busy"?
...they referred to her as the delegate?
...she said she was the delegate's wife, and decided she wants a better title?
...we had the maximum number of competitions allowed to advanced?
...so Cyrus learned the hard way you shouldn't just take a DNF in the first round on a pop and assume you won't DNF in the future?
...and other people should learn they shouldn't just take off right away or else they'll be replaced in subsequent rounds?
...Ryan got a Rubik's Cube potholder because he "smoked" in Pyraminx?
...we had 9 day-of registrations because of the front page article in the paper?

 

[JackJ]

Well, who were the 3x3 top 3?

 

[Ravi]

I was first (10.15, 9.44, 12.90, 13.02, 9.86+2 => 11.64), Waris was second (13.xx, after winning round 2 with an 11.81 avg), and I think Riley Thurm was third with another 13.xx average.
