Oh, that reminds me. During the events, I would announce what the current world records were. So for the 2x2: "Current single record is .96, held by Erik" then suddenly in my mind, I realize I've never heard his name pronounced, everyone just calls him "Erik" or it's in type (nope, I do not listen to CubeCast). I also realize that I can't pause and go, "Uhh..", so I just continue to plow through with a complete butchering of his name. All the cubers on stage laugh at my horrible pronunciation, but I just continue on.
 
As soon as I heard you talking about 2x2 records my mind goes "I hope he knows how to pronounce Erik's last name".
It's dyke, Bryon. Dyke, not dick.
Edit: I'm dumb, sorry Bryan

LOL Bryan what was with that random old asian guy? He came over when i was standing near the side area and ask "how to get on stage to solve cube" I told him i think you really had to preregister, but also told him to go talk to you. He preceeded to go up on stage and akwardly ask random people up there about signing up from what i saw...

Did he have kids? They kept walking around with my cubes. When I asked for them back, he yelled something at me in another language, said something that sounded like Lubix, then shoved them in my face...
 
^^ i think he did have kids. He also came over to me with a random guhong that was " broke (one edge popped out) like he singled me out when i was going to talk to Konstantinos again....that was wierd.

Is Clinton, IA too far? I've found no interested people in organizing something in ND, but I would love to do one there.

Yeah, that old guy didn't know what was going on. I call his kid up, (or I think he approached me and wanted his kid to go now), so he comes up with his cube, and then Jacob Chenitz is telling me it was his cube. I'm completely confused since I saw the kid bring it up. And the kid can't communicate where he got it from (and I believe he was born in the USA, not an immigrant) so we track down his dad, and again, the kid seems can't seem to understand that if he points to a large crowd, I can't pick out a stranger I met 5 minutes ago. We find the dad and ask him where they got the cube, and he's like, "We just took one from the table." I tell him he needs to bring his own, "Oh, we don't have his with us." So I lent him mine and got it back. I should really keep a crappy storebought for these situations.

Would be a 7,5 hours trip, so i have to see, but I dont believe that my host parents would drive so far :/ Is there someone going to the Iowa Open and have to go through the area of Willmar, MN and could eventually pick up two guys?
