I'll keep an eye out for you pcharles. I'll be the white guy with large hair, probably with some friends. We'll be the group that looks like a bunch of hoodlums probably.

By the way, if any of you here are staying at a hotel, which one? Me and my parents can't seem to find a simple, non-luxurious one close to the museum.
 
Fairfield Inn in Sharonville is the hotel I'm staying at. Just less than 20 minutes to the museum, not much of a high-rise, no downtown noise, etc. We're up to 21 competitors. Can't wait.
 
I have a huge problem with the venue. Will they let us roam the museum or are we all locked up in that tiny auditorium? I don't see a problem with that as long as we get back in time for our events. Where do they plan to put the solving tables? On the stage?
 
Interesting questions, I have no idea.


I have a question of my own actually. Would anyone that is attending be able to let me borrow their 5x5x5 for the competition? Several of my stickers fell off these past few days, and I don't have the time or money to resticker it before the competition.
 
Shaden, if I can't register for 5x5 after already pre-registering, you can borrow mine. Otherwise, you should probably find someone else to borrow from. It's not uncommon for the other cubers to have extra puzzles to lend.
 
I would offer to let you borrow one of my 5x5x5s, Shaden, but I doubt that's a good idea because of my near-Japanese color scheme. (white opposite blue, red and orange on opposite sides from a Japanese color scheme) If you want to try it, though, I'll have both a Meffert's one (Rubik's style) with Cubesmith textured tiles and an Eastsheen with Cubesmith stickers, and you can use either one you want. But again, you're stuck with my crazy color scheme.

pcharles93, I assume we'll be able to roam around a little because the site suggests that we can use the food court in the museum for lunch. But somehow I'm doubting we'll have automatic admission into the museums themselves. You should probably ask on the competition website in the chatterbox.
 
Thanks guys :)

@pcharles: if you don't participate in the 5x5x5, I'd be very thankful if you let me borrow yours. Otherwise, I'll borrow Mike's. I can deal with the color scheme


thank you :)
 
Okay, Shaden, just so you're prepared: I typically look at it as white on bottom, blue on top, red in front, green on left, yellow on right, orange on back. So now you know what to expect. I'll be sure to have all my 5x5x5 cubes there (3 Eastsheen, 1 Mefferts that's Rubik's-like). My favorite Eastsheen is mine, you can pick from the others.
 
wow, a lot of posts in here since I last checked it!

Shaden, I also have an eastsheen 5x5, standard color scheme I can offer in addition to Mike's. Stickers are a bit worn, but it still works well.

PCharles, I think my dad will actually be there and take a few pictures (and possibly videos). I'll put any pictures/videos/materials from the competition online along with results within a week or so after the competition.

If anyone else has pictures or plans on taking videos, I'll be happy to link to those or post those as well!
