Hackley Summer 2011 - July 30 - Tarrytown, NY

[OMGitsSolved]

I'm 95% going.

Also, PYRAMINXXXXX D:

Yes, Pyraminx please.

alot of people like magic and stuff.

I hate that event so much, I can't even finish a complete average. I quit that event.

 

[E3cubestore]

Seriously?!?! How come everything I want to do this summer lands on this weekend?

 

[cubernya]

That's when competitions are normally held, weekends

He was talking about this particular weekend....

 

[cubernya]

Oh...didn't see "this weekend"

 

[collinbxyz]

I was wondering which hotel most people were staying at. Sorry if this was said earlier.

 

[qqwref]

I think as a local-ish single day competition it's assumed that many (most?) people will drive up and back just for that day. For instance I'm staying at my house.

 

[OMGitsSolved]

Phil, do you think you can bring my timer?

 

[a small kitten]

Phil, do you think you can bring my timer?

Oh, it's already been broughten!

Sorry I had to say it.

I don't get it, says the confused 13 year old.

EDIT: Oh, that movie is so old.

I'll be staying at Chateau Burton. It's only 38 miles (51 minutes) away from me.

I'm at a little bed and breakfast in the Poconos. A little longer drive, but the views are totally worth it.

Hey guys I plan on going. This will be my first comp I'm not the best but I'm gonna go to have fun and for the experience. About how many people are probably going to go do you guys think?

 

[RyanReese09]

At the moment 41 people are signed up. So it will be around there. You will love your first competition.

I love how I had to look up this thread just to realize that it's on the home page...

Ya, I think a 3 hour drive is too long for no hotel. We would have to wake up at 5am, which is about 5 hours later than usual for me in the summer.

Godly Guhong FTW = Main cube for comp

Hampton Inn hotel? Anyone else going here?

Hopefully I will make the 4x4 cut-off time. And there is no need to tell me that I suck at 4x4... But I am getting much better!

EDIT: If anyone wants to hang out with a 12 year old, just tell me

 

[Deweyspunkis]

Hey guys my friend is going and hes not that great (sub 2 Lol) and hes wants to know if there is a cutoff (lol) so is there? Also, is there a pre signup? Thanks

I have a 3.5 hour drive. No hotel.
Maybe.

@Deweyspunkis: You're always allowed to finish your 2x2/3x3 averages, no matter what times you get. However, he most likely won't make it to the second round. For bigger cubes, there is a cutoff to be able to finish your average. The only one I know is 4x4, which is usually getting one sub-1:30 solve.
Sign up online on the Hackley Summer 2011 site (CBA to go get it), and pay $10 at the competition.

 

[collinbxyz]

There is no cutoff time in 3x3, if you look here only the events that say something like: (cutoff 1:30 cutoff time) then there's cutoff. Oh, and I have done this with my friend who averaged 1:20 the first time... Now he's like sub-50 I think.

You HAVE to "pre signup" or you can't compete =D

Unless it's a small competition, this is the most generous we usually are. Sometimes the cutoff is 1:20 or 1:15.

Yeah, I was thinking that. Everywhere I've been, the 4x4 cutoff is usually 1:15, and the 5x5 cutoff is usually 2:15...

And I kind of thought the 7x7 and 6x6 cutoffs were really generous, too.
