Yeah I'll be arriving Friday. Have to wait until I have a proper timetable for this term before I know what time, but I guess around 6 so that I can eat stuff there

This is my fourth UK Open! If someone had told me in 2007 that I'd be organising it in 2010, I don't think I would have believed them...
Everyone staying at mine, I assume you are coming Friday night (those arriving early ish will be coming to help me set up with Dave and Chrisi at the venue). On Monday I do have to go to uni really early in the morning, so I'll have to either turf you all out or leave a key for someone to lock up and put through the letterbox, or something.

Charlie, did you see the post I made about other events that I want to register for? Because I'm still only registered for 3x3...

This is my 5th - anyone else a mega-veteran?
You don't count joey, before you say anything.
I'll buy a dayan4 if there's a spare one, but it looks like the offer is up.

Sean didn't come last year, so not him, as I would have thought. Nor Dan. Lars I guess? Maybe Greg? Can't remember if he was there last year/year before.

Find it hard with people contacting me through loads of different mediums FB/pm on here etc, just email the competition one and it will be addressed ASAP!

i'll be arriving in the city centre at about 10am. so Charlie if you need any help I'm happy to give a hand. otherwise all i can do is to find somewhere to sit in and kill time by playing computer games until 2pm to check-in at the hostel
ps: To those who will also stay at YHA, plz leave a reply here so I can ask the hostel to make us in the same room

Wow, this is only my 3rd UK Open - feels like ages ago. UK Open 2008 was my first WCA competition.
I'll be there about 10pm (as usual!) -- Ik breng goed Nederlands bier

Yep!
Did you know:
- The 2006 UK Open BLD event was won by Shelley Chang from the USA? Also I remember meeting Anthony Greenhill who brought some amazing puzzles with him, among which a megaminx-shaped square-1.
- The 2007 UK Open was Breandan's first competition and he completely trashed all 3x3x3 UK records? It was also the first competition where Charlie and I were both at but we never said a word. I can't even remember noticing her, how odd!
- The 2008 UK Open had a head-to-head event with Breandan, Ron and me in the final (first to 3 solves)? Breandan won in the end coming from 2-1 down. I also judged Charlie's first succesful blindfold solve.
- The 2009 UK Open featured people hiding in hotel room closets and doing weird things with hand dryers in the toilet. (there's photo/video evidence somewhere)
I just have a feeling this year's will be even better.

I'm not, I'll be arriving Saturday morning, but it'll probably be pretty early so if you still need any help with setting up I will be available to help.
This is only my 2nd UK open. My competative cubing career all started approximately one year ago *nostalgic sigh*

I'm arriving early and will be staying in the YHA. I was wondering what other cubers would be staying in YHA, never thought to find out and try and get the same room as some of them, which was rather silly of me.
