Aussie cubers

[Dan the Beginner]

That's right, especially if you use Roux, even the best of the current software is not so good. It still beats writing down or typing in your solve times using a non-smart cube (no granularity like step times, etc). However, I really think the cube makers are missing the point and they look quite un-smart not to get the best software out, better than competitors' and have an advantage in what I believe will be a significant market soon. I'm all for the use of technology for cubing. Organising online competition and having online coaching, and local "meets" should be good and the way to go, with no end to this virus problem.

I’m beginning to think we’re going to have a repeat of lockdown #2 here

There are 3 competitions scheduled near perth. You can find them on the WCA website.

It's more tempting as the lockdown continues and Delta gets out of hand in the bigger cities. It is however not impossible that by November or December, with more vaccination, we will be OK in Melbourne.

To all the fathers and the sons and daughters here, have a great time today! Lockdown or not, it's up to us to to be happy and to make each other happy.

Hi everyone. We have a large Discord community for cubers from Oceania here if anyone wants. We run all sorts of events for those of you who are stuck in lockdowns. Right now, some of the best cubers from Australia and New Zealand on our server are competing in the Oceanic League. I look forward to seeing more of you in the server!

Link expires in 7 days, please DM me for another link if you see this after then.

There are two competitions coming up in Victoria: Kensington 2021, and Geelong Says So-Long 2021. They are part of a series, meaning you can only go to one, like twin competitions.

Hope they don’t get cancelled due to a five day lockdown or something.

Unfortunately I leave to go on holidays on the 18th. Our holiday timing seems to always be terrible.

Really sucks how there wasn't a Perth Puzzle Part 2021, and I don't think there is one planned for next year.

Unfortunately I’m not going to Melbourne summer because of cricket semi finals but if they have Altona this year I should be free to go

If anyone is interested in trading something for a YJ YuChuang 5x5 at Melbourne Summer, please PM me.
