I might come! My last day of school (finals) is on the 11th and I planned to go to Seattle (3 hour drive) to do the event on the 10th and visit the University of Washington the next day. Hopefully I can take my Monday finals early or perhaps my classes won't have any important finals.

What exactly is a Groovik's cube?

 

[uyneb2000]

A Groovik's Cube is basically a Rubik's Cube, except it is 15 by 15 foot. It is lit with LED lights and can be used by computers and up to 3 people can use it to solve it cooperatively. It was first displayed at the Burning Man Festival in 2009. Now its in Seattle

Here is an image of it.

Just wanted to say thanks to Nick and Zheng for all the hard work in organizing. While I wish I was able to get in a Groovik's solve, it was great to get everyone together and see some awesome solves. That, and I beat four official PBs: OH single/avg and 3x3x3 single/avg. See y'all at the next one!
