How much for a skewb? I don't necessarily need one, but if you are going to have one for a reasonable price, I would consider it.

 

[RyanO]

Awesome, I'll be there!

I guess I need to start practicing my OH and get my pyraminx sub 9.

 

[masterofthebass]

I shall be there now.

 

[iSpinz]

I shall be there now.

Really? I thought with Drexel on the same day, you'd be going to that one.

Should be a good one with Dan and Waris.

LOLOLOL DREXEL. The events at drexel are pitiful, and my grandparents live in chicago.

There's a good possibility we'll have Haiyan cubes at the Chicago Open for people to test out, and some people will be taking them home.

Anyone intersted in doing a Team Double-BLD with Drexel?

I would! Sounds very interesting, we could start trying out regulations there.

Do you mean like a prize for winners in events?

Prize in some events, and we may just have a flat out drawing.

We just won't enter you into the WCA database.

 

[masterofthebass]

if you don't show up, you don't get any results from the competition. Pre-registration is just a courtesy to the organizers so they can prepare ahead of time.

Pre-registration is just a courtesy to the organizers so they can prepare ahead of time.

Which means you might want to tell the organizers beforehead if you are not going to show up. Organizers usually don't like the "he/she just didn't show up" case. (Which is reasonable.)

We drive to your house and break all of your cubes... and kick your dog.

This is why no-show's take up so much of the organizer's time.

Do we pick our partners for Team BLD, or are they assigned?
