Indeed it will be the last chance for many.

That's funny. There's big cubes BLD, but no 3bld.
I might go to this, just got to keep my grades up in high school.

Registration also seems more costly than normal.

I was waiting for this to be announced
I'll definitely be there.

If preregistering and paying online: $10 for the first event, $2 per additional event.

Please note: Spectators must pay admission to the Science Center, which is $15.75 for adults (13+) and $11.50 for juniors (2-12) and seniors (62+).

I like that it is cheaper to compete in at most 3 events than it would be to spectate at the competition.

Yeah, fortunate for me I live close enough that my dad can drop me off then come get me when the competition is over

 

[bluecloe45]

[Skullush]

EDIT: Nevermind I was thinking of another day, yeah I can probably make this one

 

[Ernie Pulchny]

I need to never post at 4am again. Wow.

Since i'm participating in the LSC Demo of the rubik's cube exhibit in Columbus, can i come without paying registration?

Registration also seems more costly than normal.

Since I supply the equipment for almost every competition on the East Coast, it gets used a lot (like 10 hours x 15 days per year).

Who pays to replace timers? Batteries? Displays? Stopwatches? I do.

When most competitions offer you free food and a low registration and I offer you no food and a higher registration, it makes me look like the bad guy, but trust me, I'm not. As for the door price, though, that's because even though I was trying to encourage online registrations last year, we still had 30 people show up at the door and it really hurt the planning of the event. I'm not going to let that happen again.

UPDATE: While registered competitors will be allowed entrance into the competition for free, spectators must pay admission to the Science Center, which is $16.75 for adults (13+) and $12.50 for juniors (2-12) and seniors (62+). However, anyone who mentions that they are there for the cube competition will be granted $3 off of regular admission prices. Please click here for more information.

If this competition stays small, we may be able to add some additional events.

This competition has the potential to make up for Captain's Cove XD

Note: I am in no way demanding 3BLD and am already eternally grateful to have another shot at 4BLD and 5BLD.

Inb4 BLD gets added, then removed
6x6 would be awesome, even though it's out of the question.
