Alpharetta Open 2016 (Milton, GA)

[Torch]

Final goals:
2x2: sub-2.6 single, sub-3.7 average
3x3: sub-9.7 single, sub-11.3 average
Feet: sub-1:10 single, sub-1:15 mean
6x6: sub-3:30 single, sub-3:40 mean
SQ-1: sub-25 single, sub-30 average
BLD: sub-1:15 single, sub-1:30 mean

2x2 and 3x3 goals are probably a little ambitious, and 6x6 and feet are probably a bit easy, but whatever.

2x2: No, it's stupid
3x3: Yes on single, no on average
Feet: Yes on single, no on mean
6x6: Yes on both
Sq-1: Just barely missed both
BLD: No on both

Great comp, great fun, see y'all again soon!

So I was talking to one of my non-cubing friends about this competition, and I kinda sorta maybe said that I was definitely going to break the state record for feet.

I'm going to look like an idiot two weeks from now.

Surprisingly this actually turned out all right. Guess I just need to brag to my non-cubing friends more often.

2x2: shooting high(or low?), sub-4 avg yep
3x3: sub-15 avg, again pretty ambitious no
6x6: plsplspls soft+get mean nope
BLD: sub-1:20 single, PB mean would be awesome Single but no mean, winning was cool
Squan: don't fail too hard would have been OK if my 10.16 hadn't been entered as an 18.16
Feet: NCSR single and mean Single, but my cube's center decided that I shouldn't get a mean.
Clock: sub 20 avg

Oh, that sucks, especially after I asked you whether that was an eight or a zero on the card. Did you talk to Chris to try to get it fixed?

3x3: I don't care too much, but sub 14 single and sub 18 average would be nice.
6x6: Sub 2:55 mean, sub 2:40 single.

9 out of 10 of my first two round solves were 16.xx, including a 16.00. I couldn't break the 16 second barrier which was unfortunate, but at least I got a decent average.

For 6x6, I did get a sub 2:55 mean but not a sub 2:40 single. I did get two sub 2:50's, though.

I'd like to thank you guys again for holding the competition and for adding a second round of 6x6!

By the way, did anyone else think of the "I VOLUNTEER" meme whenever Chris asked someone to be the runner for the 3x3 finals?

Will Chris Hardwick be replacing you?

Yes, I am moving to the area in late May and starting a new job mid-June!

I do plan to work with local organizers and delegate somewhat regularly, but until I know the workflow at my new job I cannot say how often "somewhat regularly" will be yet.

I have already been in contact with an organizer in the area, so hopefully there will be another Georgia competition sometime in the Fall or Winter of this year.

Sorry to see you leave, Chris! I'll try to carry the torch for you once you're gone It'll be nice to delegate in Georgia again after being gone almost 10 years!

So I was gonna organize a comp, and I really wanted Chris to delegate it, now he can't, but at least Chris can delegate it now! lol

Is anyone else seeing a trend here?

Chris Hardwick is replacing Chris Tran who replaced Chris Krueger
Coincidence? I think not.
Nepotism at it's worst!

 

[Acmoorecuber]

So I heard Nicholas say something about organizing a comp in North carolina? Where exactly would that be? Also Aussie are you going to be doing another Music City this year?

No promises, but I think I will be organizing another one this September. Hope it works out!

If anyone cares, I uploaded my best 6x6 single from the competition.
