Will anyone be selling a stackmat timer at all? Or SS 5x5?

Anyone willing to trade hardware (core + spring/screw/washers + center pieces) in a black fangshi? The center pieces have to be the ones that are the same as the mini (the plate thing on the center piece can fall down).

I cant go because, after a party that day was cancelled, ANOTHER ONE HAD TO BE SCHEDULED THAT DAY. Pretty much the only Saturday party I've gone to in like 6 months, just had to be the day ive been practicing intensely for, for 2 weeks. Its at 7 but my dad said I cant go even though I'd make it back in time, which doesn't really make sense -_-

Anyone willing to trade a ridged dayan megaminx for a brand new non ridged black dayan megaminx?

This isn't specific to you, but if you register for a competition then find out you can't make it, you should unregister. It helps out the organizers by saving paper and ink (name tags, score cards, etc.), and gives a better approximation of how many competitors are in each event, which helps with scheduling.

I know, I usually do that, but last time I ended up being able to come again temporarily, and you never no.if that may happen again. Ill unregister by wednesday.

Goals:
2x2 - sub 3 single / sub 4.8 average (in either round)
3x3 - sub 15 single / sub 17.5 average (haven't seriously practiced 3x3 lately)
5x5 - sub 2:10 single / sub 2:30 average (might switch to hoya if I can get fast enough at it before this comp)

And I think that's it

Does anyone have an extra competition legal 2x2 or pyraminx that my friend can borrow?

I have an old wittwo v1 that they could borrow. It's okay, but they'd just need to be careful with it.

Looks like it'll be a high in the 30s with a low chance of precipitation this Saturday. I guess this competition won't have much of a chance to live up to its name.

Lol mine was canceled too. I wish I could come but I moved I guess I am going to have to host my own because no one around me will.

Does anyone have a spare Skewb they could lend me for the day? My QJ Skewb loves exploding all over my face, and I might have kinda accidentally super-glued the caps on, so there's no hope for tightening it... agh I'm kind of desperate, I'm getting decent at Skewb but I get pops every other solve :S

Anyway, goals:

2x2: sub-4.5
3x3: sub-15
5x5: don't fail
OH: sub-28
BLD: at least 2/3 successes
Pyra: don't fail like I always do
Clock: sub-15/sub-12 single
Skewb: podium/don't pop

Also I would be interested in buying cubes. Let me know if you're selling anything. I would love to expand my collection!

I'm waiting for a bunch of skewbs to come in the mail. If they arrive on time, I'll let you know.

Except I'm supposed to get dumped on (again) Thur/Fri (Indianapolis). We received about an inch an hour today, so luckily I'm pretty sure no work tomorrow
