cube comp in Florida

Lol yeah 7 takes me 30 min - an hour because I get bored and distracted too easily. I've actually stop practicing as much since I moved cause work and school have been killing me, so I'm actually back up to around 27 average, but I only do one avg of 5 a day if I'm lucky.
 
I do like 100-150 solves a day... I have nothing to do, can't get a job, don't have a car, can't get to anywhere.
7 I have only done like one timed solve, 18 minutes, 6 I did in 8. I use my own method for the centers too, it is like an algorithm that switches like 2 centers and leaves the rest of the cube the same. It is very flexible too. You can do this for all cubes too.

I would play my guitar a little more if my high E string didn't break on me.............(playing the intro solo to Foreplay/Longtime by Boston) I am so happy that wasn't violent... that would have hurt

yeah I was thinking sometime around September maybe? Once I get it all figured out I'll get a more exact date.

And with going to Orlando, the only problem is I don't know where we could have the comp at. There is a club at UF devoted to cubing, so I figured they would be happy to host a comp.
 
Hey all, I am attempting to put together a competition in Florida. If all goes to plan, it will be held at the University of Florida. I just need to get a gauge of how many people are interested. So yeah! :D

Perhaps if you've never even been to an official competition, you are not the right person to be hosting one.
 
hey when will this competition be and how many days is it going to be because i want to find a good competition for my first one!!!!:D

thanks!

You pre-registered for the Houston Open in 2 weeks, are you not going?
dude i can't go because of when it is not how far away it is....i can't go because fo my big bro's wedding so sorry to dissapoint or not
 
There is so many places you could do it all over Florida, it's just a matter of looking. I'd be interested in going. You could do it in Libraries. Businesses. Halls in Hotels. Universities. A great place to do it would be in Tampa at the University of South Florida. They have a huge campus. With tons of places to be able to do it at.
 
Hey Bob, if this thing is hosted at UF it will be me hosting it with the help of Ou Chen who you met at Stetson a while back.
We already had talk about a FL comp after the Horizon Open. So once school starts and me and Hadley are settled in we will talk about hosting the Florida Open. I'll talk to my cube club and we'll see what kinda room we can get. There are many many people who know how to solve a cube at a school as large as UF so with a little advertising I'm sure we would have plenty of people show up. With my favorite GA cubers maybe coming as well as my favorite bigcube bld solver hopefully delegating I think we could do it.

Indeed, I have much more faith in you than someone who has never attended a competition. :P
 
Calekewbs, depending on how old you are, Just work on it and make a competition next summer. You could try USF, And use there Sun Dome it's like an idoor arena that has plenty of space and anyone can book it. And Lofty, Can you keep us updated on the competition status?
 
yeah i def will and yeah keep us updated. I dont want to miss outr on this one! lol

Probably just, if you'll indulge, allow me to make a very minor note...

If you want to hold a competition, it probably helps your credibility to write proper English.

lol I was in a rush to get out the door. :fp I didn't notice I did that. I usually have really good grammar and spelling.
 
Just to throw the info out there, I, along with 4-5 others, live in Pensacola, so could make it to any competition in state.
Now that the Houston Open is done with, Wessley and I are itching for another one :D
 
really a tournement in florida?!?!?!

sweet i cant wait, ill see if i can go but if i can ill will deff be going i avg. around 23 seconds so i really hope i can go is it all puzzles or just 2x2x2-7x7x7?
