[bobthegiraffemonkey]

Goals:
3: IDC
4: sub1 avg
567: don't screw up
mega: lol I should have practised more
222/OH: whatever really, but no awful solves (like sup-20 2x2 single)
3BLD: podium (I doubt it)/sub-1:10
megaminxBLD: success

What times are people arriving there? I remember someone saying abut 8-ish, but I'm pretty flexible so I'll go earlier if there's going to be people there (train to Waverley, staying at Travelodge btw). Any ideas on when would be best to go for megaBLD (I'm looking at you Ollie)?

Me and James are getting there at around 8:30 (the travelodge), Our trains get in around 8:10 iirc, so we could meet at the station. I think daniel will be arrive around then too, but he's coming by plane so idk. Not sure about anyone else.

 

[kinch2002]

I land at 7.10. Not really sure who long it will take to leave the airport by my best guess is travelodge around 8.30. I assume there'll be a suitable area to hang out somewhere near the lobby

 

[NevinsCPH]

I'll be there friday night because travelling on saturday morning 5~6am is too much of a hassle.

As for goals.
2: new official average please
4: sub 1 average
5: sub 1:50 average
6: sub 4 single
7: sub 6:10 single
OH: sub 35 average with a sub 30 single hopefully
BLD: sub 2:10
FMC: sub 50
Clock: sub 30 single
Mega: sub 2:10 single and 2:30 average
Pyra: sub 10 single and sub 18 average

I'll be arriving before 6, assuming I get lost. I'm basically free all morning on the Saturday so during any of the events up to 3BLD I'm more than willing to film. I don't mind filming during lunch either as long as I don't starve

 

[kinch2002]

There's going to be teambld on Saturday evening as an unofficial activity.
Special format: Sum of 2 solves
You must switch roles with your partner for the second solve.

Probably arriving at Travelodge around 11ish, depending on how quickly I get through immigration at the airport. Hope some of you will still be awake then.

Goals:
2x2: Sub-10 avg.
3x3: Sub 25 single/sub 30 avg and make it to round 2.

Don't have goals for other events.

Tomorrow some of us will meet in the Travelodge Central on St Mary's Street from 8.30pm(ish) onwards.

 

[Ollie]

1. Will anyone be selling cubes? A good new 4x4x4 and a 5x5x5 would be great
2. Can someone film my BLD solves?

 

[chrissyD]

Goals/Times I probably wont get cuz comp

2x2: Duncare/Duncare
3x3: 10.x niggle/12.x average
4x4: sub 1 (No 14 second z perms this time pree)/Not bothered about average as long as it's comp pb. Been getting lots of sub 1 averages recently though.
5x5: make the cut which I never do cuz 5x5

I feel for you guys coming from far south. Long journeys suck.

 

[MaeLSTRoM]

Is there anyone that will be leaving by car early-ish on Sunday evening (As in, as soon after awards as possible), that could give me a lift to the station? Train leaves at 5:30, it's a bit tight for time :/

I just bought a new SS4 and 5 to serve the purpose of 4MBLD or 5MBLD over Christmas. They aren't modded yet. If ya want I could sell you them.

As for filming, if I'm done with BLD I could possibly help. Of course, cameras are not included. LOL
