UK Open 2012

Thanks for another great competition. Best parts being square 1 success after finishing learning it at 11:00 the night before, and making OH average cuts by 0.03 seconds.

Question: I'm thinking about changing my WCA nationality. Does this have to be done at a competition?

Yes, at the first competition in the year you attend (so you'll have to wait until 2013).

Have you got dual nationality? You can't represent a country if you aren't that nationality.

I WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE TO CHINESE

Sorry if that sounded as if I just spontaneously want to change to a random nationality. I was born in Belfast and my father's Irish. I'm about to get an Irish passport, so I think I'd qualify as Irish as well. Would I be eligible for a WCA nationality change?

Certainly if you have an Irish passport yes.

You just want NRs

Lul. With Chester and Amos, I'm never gonna have a chance of getting BLD NR lol.

The main benefit of possible Scottish independence

I'd only have 3x3 average, but it's better than nothing.

The main benefit for Breandan of possible Scottish independence

Fixed.

 

[CHJ]

I come from smerbia

 

[bobthegiraffemonkey]

Breandan would certainly benefit more, but I'd get NR in all BLD, megaminx, and I could maybe get 2x2. Maybe Sq-1 if I actually learned a method? IDK for certain all the Scottish cubers: me, Breandan and Euan that I know of, and according to UKCA map also Magnus and Gordon.

I just noticed this thread has 801 posts now. Am I right if I say that this is the largest thread for a single competition, including World and continental championships on SS?

I laughed so hard seeing myself solving magic like a sir then seeing Callum's reaction to 1.36solve lol.

 

[Mollerz]

I was going to do something like that but I forgot my camera. HERPADERP

 

[Escher]

My favourite is still this one made by Jude :3

I was disappointed with my performance for this competition overall to be honest, i think only my mega and 2x2 made me feel good, and yh cool vid!
