Inter-University Cubing Relay 2012-2013

[macky]

For rules and registration, see the official relay page.

Welcome to the second year of Inter-University Cube Relay! Once again, several Japanese universities will go head to head at Tokyo University Open this Sunday to start things up. Universities have long been centers of competitive cubing, and many top cubers are university students. Last year, the University of Waterloo came out on top with a total time of 48.41 (12.10 average). See the full results with videos. Which institution will claim the title of this year? Tell your schoolmates!

Register your team by 12/20/2012. Submit your result by 01/20/2013.

This year's event has concluded! Congratulations to the winning team!
1st place: Cal (UC Berkeley) 44.61
2nd place: Northeast Forestry University 44.72
3rd place: University of Waterloo [Team A] 47.59

The website says high school, so I guess so.


Yay.
I don't think many people in my school know I'm a cuber and I'm sub-20. Shoot.

Team Waterloo (A) will do our relay tomorrow.

We might have multiple teams. O:


edit: We had 3 teams, and we all did our relays this evening. The videos won't be public until late January, for the sake of suspense.

edit 2: Just Team A's video won't be public until later.

[Solstix]

Team Waterloo (B(est)) may or may not exist, but is definitely the superior team.

The Team A results are a secret for now.

 

[JodoYodo]

B-Team is Best Team.

Team C also was notified that they were going to relay literally 5 minutes before they relayed. We probably could've formed a better team B by swapping me out for someone else.

Hi!
I am a student of University of Tsukuba.
We participated University Cubing Relay in UT Open 12, and we won!

Thus, we have already done it once.
But can we participate in this Inter-University Cubing Relay?

Your performance at UT Open IS your entry to the cube relay. In fact, the rest of the world is using the same scrambles you used! Kei (Suga) told me he'd enter the results.

 

[Vincents]

We Are. Sub-5!

 

[Cm_Hu]

Zhejiang University will have two teams.
we(team A) got 54.33 today. Our best time during practice is 48xx. Video will be uploaded later. Team B may video it tomorrow.

 

[Ninja Storm]

River Hill High School will have at least two teams. Rosters will be registered tomorrow.

I'm trying to get people from my school to join that have the same frees as me, (e.g. Eric)

 

[Noahaha]

Pierrepont School will enter!

We'll probably get like 1:30.

 

[antoineccantin]

L'Escale is probably going with 2 or even 3 teams.
Team A's goal is sub 1:15
