I'm thinking about going, not that I'll be very competitive. What's the time cut off for megaminx and where would the best accommodation be?

Hi Keith,

We haven't even begun thinking about scheduling yet, as we tend to do it based on how many people register. The cutoff for megaminx will likely be around 3 minutes.

I don't think we will organise anything special for accommodation as there aren't going to be a huge amount of people travelling, and many will sort out their own accommodation anyway. In short, you're on your own. You could try asking Sydney cubers if you could stay with them (which is the favoured option for many people) or else hostels are a cheap option. Another possibility is to try and get together a group of travelling cubers and organise accommodation together somewhere. I did this for a group of people last year for ausnats in Canberra.

Speaking of which, who's keen on shared hotel rooms? Was $50 for 2 nights last time, and I had a bed! Something similar this year would be cool.
