Tree Town 2013 - Ann Arbor, MI

[antoineccantin]

Eric is the first Canadian I've ever met that says "Eh?"...

Yeah eh? Not all that many people actually say that up here.

 

[Yuxuibbs]

Did you know...
- Yuxuan had the best 4x4x4, that at least 3 other people used to compete?
- She is awesome too?
- There was a deer near one of the parking lots?
- I touched it?

I’m uploading our last 2 team BLD solves in a few hours

You should try hanging out with the squirrels. (U of M has a squirrel club so the squirrels are really friendly but I think most of them are in central campus instead of north campus)

- I owe Eric a road trip, so we'll probably both be at the next Michigan competition?

YAY

DYK:
I added six people last minute to the 2x2 final, expanding the field to 16?

Best decision ever. I was #13 and I really wanted to get an official sub 5 average (I get low 4/sub 4 averages at home but I keep getting 6 second averages in comp)

How long does it normally take for a WCA profle to be made after the first competition?

How long does it normally take for a WCA profle to be made after the first competition?

Whenever the results from the competition are approved and posted - anywhere from a few days to a couple weeks usually.

Kit's girlfriend talks to her cube when she solves?

Very true...

I had no business getting a 3:17 BLD solve?

No business at all

I'm not calling Mitchell?

Are you at least opposite calling Mitchell?

hopefully I'll get better at these in the future!

Usually if you're at a competition with me you should mention how amazingly epic my beard is, just sayin'...

I have SO much respect for Ryan Vall for letting the judges know his 6.26 Clock solve was a mis-scramble?

Seconded.


One more

DYK...

Messing up an alg while trying to do it slowly is now known as James LaChancing...

LIES. I hear it thrown around so much here.

 

[TheNextFeliks]

Wait. Which one was Kit's girlfriend?

Can I have the fmc scramble to post my solution?

 

[TeddyKGB]

Wait. Which one was Kit's girlfriend?

The one with the colorful socks.

 

[TheNextFeliks]

The one with the colorful socks.

Ok. What was her name again?

 

[Deleted member 19792]

Lauren Klemz I think.

 

[DFTBA]

Lauren Klemz I think.

Yup. My name is Lauren. I am Kit's girlfriend.

DYK:

I literally made this account 10 seconds ago?
I have no idea what I'm doing? http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/234786-i-have-no-idea-what-im-doing
I have a ton of cool socks?
I was really nervous when solving a 3x3 at Tree Town and that's why my scores are not what they should be?
I loved meeting all of the cubers who were there?
Am I doing this right?

 

[Kit Clement]

Yup. My name is Lauren. I am Kit's girlfriend.

Wait, who?

More DYKs? Sure!

DYK:

There were 7 different countries represented at this competition?
There were 7 girls at this competition?
I really want to think of another thing special about this competition relative to the number 7? (EDIT: I set 7 PBs! Ah ha, 777!)
That a mini Maru cube was used in the first round of 3x3?
That Lauren actually has more colored socks than you could ever dream of?

 

[TheNextFeliks]

Lauren Klemz I think.

Oh ok. Nice Kit. She seemed really nice.

 

[TeddyKGB]

Am I doing this right?

You failed to mention my beard and that AMAZING three way hug we had...

 

[Bizarro]

DYK:

I set five PB's?
Got a +2 on my first ever official solve?
People from Michigan drive with headlights off in the dark?
Touching phones can get your knuckles broken?
I was wrong about ALL Canadians knowing who Our Lady Peace is?
Our Lady Peace is amazing?
It is common courtesy in Indiana to feed the driver if you're riding shotgun?

DYK:

Deer.
Deer!

 

[FatBoyXPC]

Suppose it's my turn?

DYK...
Karma really does stink
Michigan drivers not only drive w/o headlights, they also speed! And they have no concern for safety!
Ryan's beard was still epic
I was well on track to beat John Brechon in 2x2, but as usual he got a couple lucky solves
Michigan passengers have no respect for their drivers
My dog melts hearts
Bright and obnoxious socks are for special people
Chester isn't calling Mitchell
Neither am I, but I'm at least opposite Mitchell
Commutators are fun
First impressions isn't mine or Justin's strong suits
Canadians don't know their candy

I got a PM with an offer of an UltraMorphix and 2 handmade golden cubes in exchange for a moyu huanying prototype during the cmpetition
