Newark Head to Head 2012

Has anyone seen a black LingAo Magic? I thought I had it in my bag but now I can't find it. It has some minor damage on it and it feels loose. If anyone has it, please let me know ASAP.
 
Everything went completely horrible. No practice this year anyway.

The only semi-positive thing was nearly an awesome 2x2 average [for me]. First 3 solves of the average were 3.2, 3.2, 2.9. I tried to 1-look the 4th solve b/c it was a 3 move insert, which would've gave me a really good average. I did the wrong anti-sune, so that ended up in a dnf. It all came down to the 5th solve, which had a horrible first layer, so I only got a 4.3 on it. Lanlan ftw. Felt good for not practicing 2x2 in as long as I can remember.

YAY i finally have a WCA id! Weird how 3 other people with CHOI as their last name first competed this year.
I LOLed at how my average record was 3999th in the world
and how both my 5x5 solves and my OH solves were all DNFs.

My Goal for next comp: get an average in 4x4, get a sub-30 if not sub-25 3x3 average, make the hard cutoff for 5x5.

Oh, and if you didn't watch it, a lot of the solves my mom took video of and i took footage of the entire awards ceremony.
In the video gallery...
 
(kind of) BUMP
Sorry if this seems like it shouldn''t be in this thread.

Is asking for volunteers to judge, even kids like me (i'm 13), common in competitions?
I've seen that in this competition that a lot of the judges were around my age +-3 years.

Yes, if the competition is desperately behind schedule.

That is not a necessary condition. We were only slightly behind schedule (and then ahead of schedule by the end of the head-to-head). However, it is fairly common at East Coast competitions. Since a lack of help will make things less enjoyable for competitors (stricter cutoffs, events eliminated, etc.), many competitors are willing to help out to make sure things stay on track.
