Good date for me as well, hopefully I'll go!

Combo breaker?

How many people will choose to not compete in order to keep their comp pb streak alive?

My solution: Don't do FMC in comps before and practice for this comp. I know for a fact breaking my FMC PB's aren't hard :3

 

[~Adam~]

Come to think of it I haven't done FMC in comp and also don't care about my streak so might come just to see people.

Goodbye PB streak.

 

[LucidCuber]

It's either goodbye PB streak, or goodbye UK Competition streak.

i think i might go to this cuz i really want a mean!!

 

[Yes We Can!]

Hmm... Around £55 round trip for the London one. Already cheaper for me than the German ones.
Very tempting to just go for like five days. There should be drinks on Saturday night and a cube meet or something on Sunday as well. Anyone up?

Sounds good, obviously not gonna make it. I'm not going all the way to England just for fmc and no NR's!

Yes. That stuff. Also don't have to compete with a hangover =D

Edit - on Sunday at least.

Prediction: full-German podium.
Goal: make my prediction false.
But it's enough if I don't suck (sub-28 average).
Good luck to everyone

Okay, so I never saw this before. What was the rule with the clock? Was there an overall time limit (like chess) or something? Overall, a VERY cool idea. I want to try it now.

The rules are quite simple, both have 2 minutes time limit on the clock (so a game lasts at maximum 4 minutes). And you are allowed to do one turn when you are next, then you have to press the timer, that the opposites time starts running. And this goes till the time has finished or you solved the cube There should be an other video where I did this against Sanio and he lost because his time was over

Perfect - so just like chess. I suspected it, but thanks for the confirmation. Seems like a really great event - I love it!

There are some important rules, for example scramble and inspection.
The timing of pushing the clock after the scramble is mistakable.
