So is there anything wrong with a variety of events? And we were ahead of schedule all day.

And my name is pronounceable.

Didn't say there was anything wrong with a variety of events It's just that the schedule was weird. Having many of the common events after lunch? To me, that's just making the little kids with parents (many of whom probably don't want to be there all day) wait around much longer to compete, rather than having the common ones in the morning so it can die down after lunch. Idk that's just me.

Whatever you say, Merriam. (Weebster)

I mean, or that just means they can show up later...the room wasn't even close to full until the main events started happening anyway. Garrett's comp ran very well. We even added a 3rd round of 3x3.

Garrett is a very competent organizer that actually runs comps very well. I wouldn't say you have much room to criticise how he runs it.
 
The idea was to shift the competition (for most people) to the middle of the day. Though OH probably could have been done before 2x2 Finals. It was an experiment, and I'm happy with the way it went. It wasn't perfect, but I'm definitely going to incorporate some of the same ideas next time.

But for now, I want to go to another comp where I'm not the organizer. 'Cause that's tiring and stressful. Fun, but still tiring and stressful.

says the guy who isn't even sub-10. Honestly tho it's like 2x2 but it's totally different at the same time, I guess it's easier to like pyra if you like 2x2.

It's not for lack of trying... I've done thousands of solves on Pyra. 2x2 is meh.

My big problem is it takes for ever in comp.

I don't actually care about Pyra except for in comp.

Thought I'd let you all know that I filled out the paperwork for renting my school as a venue for Lawrence Fall 2016!

The date rented is October 29th (mostly because the 22nd is a day of the ACT). I'm a bit uncertain of the events I should have. I will obviously have 3 rounds of 2x2 & 3x3, Megaminx, Pyraminx, OH, Skewb. I'm just trying to think of other events as well. I'm personally in favor of Square-1, FMC, or 4x4/5x5 (one or the other); although, I know not many would be in favor of FMC or Square-1. (When is the next FMC Day anyway?)

I want you guys to help me decide.
