Ask questions about organising a WCA competition here

[Davian]

Just know that not having 3x3 will limit interest on the comp.

That doesnt matter, side events are very popular over here.

I might want to organize an comp in The Netherlands with side events only, I was thinking of:
Clock
Skewb
Pyra
Megaminx
Sq-1

Now there is a venue in my city but its a bit expensive, so what do I do?

Getting in touch with an experienced organiser is always a good step. I would try getting in touch with them via discord, as they tend to get a lot of emails.
Try not to get a delegate involved just yet, as they can take a while to reply, given the insane amount of emails they get.

Yh he should organise a comp with 5 rounds of 3BLD so you can get NR

I would love a competition with 5 rounds of 3BLD.
Also if the WCA changes the format of each round to median of 5, or best of 5, it would be epic yo!

For the record, the most rounds you can have is four.

Considering the 2024 regulations yes,

In the future, maybe no.

That’s a good proposition, however, I think the only place more than 4 rounds of one event would be needed is big championship finals, and in that case they could just have bigger groups.

Yes bigger groups is a better solution rather than having more rounds!
