Fort Lee Winter 2009 (NJ)

[jcuber]

no

I think that perhaps a "reasonable" time limit should be enforced for the big cubes, but nothing like 5:00 for both of them. No one want's DNF's on their record. Perhaps have a separate table for the "slow" people competing in those events. It would start at the begginning of the competitio, and by the end of the day, we should be able to get through most, or at least many, of the people.

 

[jcuber]

lol, currently only 2 competitors for pyraminx.

 

[James Kobel]

I can't believe that only 30 people have signed up so far. I doubt we'll need time limits if so few people go.

Guys, if you haven't noticed, there has been a Venue change. It's now at a hotel:

Where: Double Tree Hotel
2117 Route 4 East
Fort Lee, NJ 07024 (see map below)
Details: on the second floor; in the Hudson Room

 

[DavidWoner]

lol, currently only 2 competitors for pyraminx.

That's because it wasn't on the original registration form. It wasn't added until ~20 people were registered. Most of the people who are doing almost all of the events (me, Dan, Patrick, etc) will be doing pyraminx as well.

 

[Bob]

Send me an email or PM if you want to add pyraminx.

Does anybody have Cubesmith Eastsheen 2x2 stickers they can sell to me? If you do, PM me but I'm not 100% sure if I can go to the competition.

You should've responded to my thread in the BST forum!

Once I start spring break (Friday night), I'll check to see if I have an extra set, since my puzzles and extra stickers are home.

Okay Kegham, no offense but your schedule is rediculous, this is how you should run it, (time according to how smoothly it runs.) Also, you need to ask for 10 judges, you already have three definite, My 2 cousins and I, possibly my friend Chris. You will need 10-15.

Registration(magic + mastermagic)
And then order of most popular events.
3x3 1st
2x2 1st round
4x4 time limit 1:30 will fit.
3x3 2nd round (4x4 for people who didn’t make it)
Lunch(Side events, Pyraminx Sq1 Clock)
4x4 blindfolded wont affect anything but there isn’t even three registered competitors, so if I signed up Tim and Dan get it successful and I just decided to sign up, I would get 3rd place for dnf? So just do 3x3 BF during this time
5x5: If you have time, ask Bob
3x3 MBF: I doubt it will fit but it would be awesome to see.
6x6+7x7 pocket events my friend find a select few judges to help out and you will get it.

 

[hippofluff]

I personally don't see what the problem with the scheduale is now. I find it helpful that I would be able to do worthless(no offense to people who like it) magic and get it over with quickly. Also I could warm up and get ready for 3x3 and get better times instead of walking in and doing 3x3 right away with cold hands and doing bad. What difference will it make?

 

[jcuber]

Perhaps 5x5, 6x6, and 7x7 competitors could have to both compete and judge?

The schedule is fine. They'll handle it.

 

[ender9994]

the schedual seems fine to me. For once no one can complain about cold hands for the 3x3. One question though, when will the pyraminx take place? It is not on the schedual on the competition website. Thanks.

i doubt it very much, what about westchester, they had less competitors and didnt even have 4x4, 3x3 2x2 OH BLD magic MASTER sq 1 pyraminx and clock with less competitors

 

[Tim Reynolds]

Don't worry about it paul...if they fall behind, they'll drop less popular events as they go. It doesn't look too terrible of a schedule.

its not the schedule haha, its the amount of competitors: schedule Ratio im just worried of having my 2:wx.yz 4x4 average up there forever lol

 

[Bob]

If anything needs to happen, I will make sure we cancel events that Paul Wagner wants to happen the most.
