As Andrea and me said before Melbourne Autumn should be SuitUp-Melbourne

Everybody who is not coming in a Suit has to pay 10$ more. Girls must come in a dress.

I have to say that this is an awesome idea. Even if I wouldn't be going.

Why wouldn't you go?

I'm assuming that by "Melbourne Autumn" you mean something other than Australian Nationals, and this year I'm going to be a poor university student and will probably only come to ausnats.

You may still attend meetups and competitions if you're banned from the forum. It'd be up to your parents though if they have the final say.

I'm not banned, just... let's leave it at "took a break".

Girls can wear a suit as well!

maybe have the money go towards a charity or something
and probably not at a comp. since there are regulations stating you can wear what ever you want

Under Competitors

2h) Competitors must be fully dressed. Competitors may dress in jeans, pants, shorts, slacks, skirts, foot-wear, T-shirts or dress shirts. Hats may be worn. Clothes must not display vulgar language or have inappropriate pictures.
 
I may as well just make my own personal stance clear: I am not a fan of "finals formats". We don't do things special at any other stage, so I don't see why we should at finals time. The decision on what happens ultimately is not up to me, but I will fight for my point of view.
 
I think the two at a time finals are grossly distracting. In the worlds, the second competitor could not look at the screen or over at the other competitor. The first competitor did not have that problem. Surely a final should place all competitors on an equal footing. I would definitely argue for one at a time at bigger competitions. As for our australian comps, I cant see why we should change what we have done in the past.

That was the rule at WC, we're not going to stop people looking at the timer to see the time, that's stupid.
 
I don't like the two at a time Version.

2 tables. #8 from last round make first solve, #7 getting ready. Then #7 solves and then #6 is getting ready.

Final like that is much more fun.

And way too much effort for almost no benefit. 1 at a time is simple, doing anything other than that is time consuming and unnecessary.
