Detroit Competition

[Kit Clement]

I should be able to go. Geez, I have so much to look forward to in the coming months. TOW in March, then this in April

Hey we could carpool

Sounds fine to me. Any other cubers in or around the Oakville area?

About the competition, have you (kippy33) decided on any events? I'm interested to know what you're planning.

Yeah, I have a tentative list, although things will definitely be cut from this list before anything is added.

Main:
3x3x3
2x2x2
4x4x4
3x3x3 BLD
3x3x3 OH

Side:
7x7x7
4x4x4 BLD
Magic/Master Magic
Fewest Moves
Square-1

Fewest Moves is most likely to be cut, along with 7x7x7, however, some input may change my opinions. I'm not here to please everyone though, I have a relatively limited amount of time for a competition and need to make sure things work. Many of these events will overlap as well, so you will need to choose between events in some situations.

The status on the venue is looking good, I'm expecting an email tomorrow which will finalize the date for the venue, once I get that, I'll be emailing WCA.

Venue is final, website is developed, competition is in process of becoming official.

[JustinJ]

Alrighty. I'm all signed up. See you there!

 

[Bob]

me too.XXX

Hotel is $50/night, but $60 for double occupancy. $30/night sounds a lot better to me than $60, so who wants to split a room Friday & Saturday nights?

Oh, I snore.

 

[slncuber21]

i should be able to go unless my parents have a reason to not let me go.
hope to see you all there

 

[Kit Clement]

Exactly 1 month till the event! ^.^

There's a chance I may be able to make t-shirts for this fairly cheaply, is there any interest on that?

 

[JustinJ]

Yeah sure, I'd buy one. Are you planning to have any other merchandise?

I'm getting excited

 

[Kit Clement]

I wasn't planning on it, but if there's the interest, I'd be happy to coordinate a mass Cube4You order.

 

[Sa967St]

what kind of merchandise are you planning to have?

 

[Kit Clement]

T-shirts are looking like a good possibility, I may sell cubes as well, but just on a by-order basis. I'll let you know when I have that planned out.

If I were to sell cubes there, what would you guys be interested in?

 

[Sa967St]

16 days left woot ^^

Kit, are you still planning to sell cubes? I'd be interested in buying a Mefferts 4x4x4

Me and Shaden. But only if you get nose plugs.

 

[Bob]

But only if you get nose plugs.

Haha, you experienced that first hand now. Was I lying?

Sorry, I don't really think that's going to be a possibility at this point, we'd need to get a lot of people in on this order quickly so I could order it and be confident that all the cubes would arrive on time. =/

Will a CanadianCubing vendor be there? They have a good amount of merchandise.

No, because of the customs at the border, it would be quite a pain for Dave to bring all that merchandise.

 

[ScottKidder]

Anyone in the Mt. Pleasant Area Planning on heading down (We should carpool) Also, anybody down for splitting a hotel? Unless there's still room in Bob's room?
