Eventually I'll be there, I've never been to California and I wanna go.

Megaminx - I dunno, its coming in the mail right now
3x3x3 OH - Complete fail
4x4x4 - FAILURE

The hotel sent me the wrong paper work to begin with, but the group rate and other information for the event will be posted on the event's website within the next day or two.

 

[The3point14]

Phew. After a small scare today, I found out I can make the competition. I forgot that ACM-ICPC regionals are around the same time and confirmed that it is the weekend before. YAY!

I'm looking forward to meeting all of the Texas speedcubers in November as I just booked my flight. It's gonna be lots of fun!

Awesome. Apparently we were both at the Toronto Open. I don't really remember you, but you might remember me? I'm not sure. I was the only
American there and I was 4th in 3x3.

Anyway, we can officially meet on the 14th. See you there!

 

[Spitfire97]

Awesome. You know I have to be there.

I'll start off with my goals for the competition:
- 25 OH average
- Low-Mid 13 3x3 Average
- Sub 4 2x2 Average (If I have a good cube to use)
- Fail at 4x4
- Sub 1:45 bld
- Sub 9 Pyraminx
- Lose to Joshua in Multibld
- Have fun

LOLEd at that

 

[SaberSlash49]

Get some cubes/puzzles from Anthony!

Yeah I remember you Anthony. You were Eric Limeback's friend.

 

[IamWEB]

That's a great way to identify him.

Hey guys,

So it's been maybe a day or two since the competition was announced, and we already have 18 competitors!

Keep the registrations coming, tell your friends, etc.

See you guys there!

P.S. My goal is to get a sub-20 average. We'll see if after 7 years of cubing I can actually do it, lol.

 

[IamWEB]

Didn't you get a sub-20 average in Houston?

I was beating you in most of our races the night before it, and then the next day when it's official you beat me?
I'm not letting that happen again. >=D

 

[cubekid]

Na, i got ridiculously close (20.07), but I didn't actually make it under.

Haha, bring it.

 

[IamWEB]

My first sub-20 single in competition was almost sub-18 as well: stupid lockup on a Y perm! Anthony's my witness. Too bad it was just a single though, not an average.

If I can close that gap further between my at-home times and my competition times, you'll fear me in Austin.

 

[Ashmnafa]

Chances are looking pretty good for me going, but not confirmed yet.

4lll = 4 look last layer.
And no, I don't think Weston is sub 15 using two look OLL and two look PLL. But who knows.
