Dayton Open 2010

I have to mention: one thing that did not show up in the live results (since it was unofficial) was my square-1 BLD attempt. It was a success: six minutes and fifty-something seconds. I don't remember the exact result - Jim has the sheet.

A pretty slow attempt, but I wanted to make sure I got it right.

It was a really, really good day for BLD for me.
 
This was by far the most productive competition I've been to:

16.75 Average (15.75 single, but had 15.72 at DeVry, but I'll still accept this!)
6.16 2x2 Average
3.71 2x2 Single
Blind Success -FIRST (and official!) EVER!

NeedReality, who were you? Skatemaster (Ryan), what method were you using for 2x2?

Mike: I'm afraid I can't stay up for the negative solve contest, I'm far too tired! The drive home was fun but exhausting, not to mention the barely any sleep is really killing me right now. I plan on getting my 2x2 and 3x3 videos up soon (edited, of course).
 
I used fridrich for OH too, but i may switch if i find out how in the world i'm supposed to do M moves one handed.
If you are talking about M' thats easy even without table (MUCH easier with table) dont do many M's.

What i do is when i have an alg thats like M'U2M
i do M'd2M'

just did an a05 65 seconds.

Nicholas Markopoulos (I had a gray sweater on and sat in the back by the piano most of the time).
 
I honestly don't remember you, but that's also because I was over on the opposite wall where the windows were, mostly hanging out with nakai, seth (cincyaviation) james/jt (jms_gears), and Tristan (thrawst). Next time you shouldn't be so shy man, we're all a nice group of people! Besides jms_gears when he gets in trouble for crazy foot cube OH :P

lolwut, i never got in trouble. Anyway. I was pissed at the semi-final results..

I remember you. i judged you on your second solve, it was a 20.xx right after your 27.
 
Thanks to everyone who came and made the competition possible. It was a good competition despite the fact that it was heavily disrupted by an unreasonable competitor who should know better than to threaten the organizers and the WCA delegate just to add a second round of 3x3x3 BLD. The disruptive competitor shall remain unnamed in order to protect the identity of his two daughters who had the misfortune of witnessing such a shameless act of violence. Since he did not demand a second round of 4x4x4 BLD, 5x5x5 BLD, or square-1 BLD, all of which he won in the first round, it is clear that his motive was to win 3x3x3 BLD. As main organizer of the competition, I personally made sure that he did not get what he wanted and I am relieved to say that I have succeeded in doing so. After careful evaluation, the organizers and the WCA delegate have decided to let him keep all his official BLD results since he is such a badass.
