What is "Seedings for podiums" and "Seeding medalists"?

What is "Seedings for podiums" and "Seeding medalists"?

It is seedings based on the Psych Sheet which was based off the June 1st WCA export

So hypothetically if everyone did their current PBs in the final rounds, that would be medalists.

Lucas Wesche and I thought about doing a "Guildblind challenge", which basically means solving the Guildford challenge events completely blindfolded.

Neither of us has received a PM yet. Despite some feedback by Rob Yau and Ollie, is there really no one interested in joining? If so, we'll probably reject the idea...

I have 2 questions:

1.Are there any cash prizes for podiums?
2. What is the best/cheapest conection between malmo airport and roskilde?

 

[Carrot]

1) yes. But i haven't seen any numbers
2) 737 from malmö airport-> Copenhagen Central station: ~15 eur
Train from Copenhagen Central station -> Roskilde station: ~9 eur (if buying a 2 zone klippekort and stamping 4 times each way. obviously you can save more If you are more people)

That sums up to like 25 eur.

 

[Zoé]

1. Yes, but as far as I know they are not fixed yet.

2. The cheapest option is to take the bus (line 737) from malmö airport directly to København H (Copenhagen main station)
But this bus doesn't run very often, so you might need to take a bus to Malmö train station (flygbussarna) and from there take a train to København H (you can buy that ticket at the train station, price should be around 105 SEK).

From København H, you can take a train to Roskilde train station. Price for a single ticket is 96DKK for 8 zones, so if you do the round trip it might be cheaper to buy a klippekort of 2 zones and klip it 4 times to get the 8 zones needed (which would allow you to travel there and back for 150DKK + 2 extra klips left). To understand better how the system works, you can read the travel page on the euro website. I know it's a bit long, but it explains how the travel system works pretty well.

How much Krone will I need staying from Thursday night to Monday morning for food/bus tickets?

How much Krone will I need staying from Thursday night to Monday morning for food/bus tickets?

From what I remember, Danish prices are fairly similar to the UK. Refreshments may be slightly more expensive, and transport maybe a bit cheaper.

Live streaming ?

Hopefully yes. It seems possible. Some people are discussing the details.

 

[LucidCuber]

Are there showers at the venue?

I can confirm this. (I was in UK last week)

 

[Zoé]

Are there showers at the venue?

yes, but very basic ones

 

[tseitsei]

yes, but very basic ones

Is there any chance that me and 4 of my friends could use the showers even tough we don't sleep at the venue?

We are coming with mobile home from Finland so using showers at the venue would be very much appreciated...

 

[LucidCuber]

yes, but very basic ones

Well that's better than not washing for 4 days
