I saw a job opening at an Antarctic research station a few months back. I was seriously considering applying just to organise a comp there and make that the southernmost comp. Lol.

Good luck writing anything down.

Hey you! Yeah you! Do you think you can sit down with a Rubik's Cube in Antarctica and write down the shortest solution possible within an hour? Yes? Congrats, you win!

Won't be going. Too expensive, I have no money the fight will cost just over $200 and it is at an awful time. I have an exam on the day before this. I'll just have to wait for Nationals in Dec. It'll be nice to do clock again and get an average. But hopefully it'll be run at Nationals. Even if I had the money for flights I wouldn't go. It's just a very bad time for me.

Also on the topic of most Southernly Comps did a comp in Wellington ever hold that title? Also I wonder how many people will go. A lot of people at the Palmy Comp said they wouldn't be. Also will this comp break the NR streak for NZ Comps that started back in 2009.

But Dene is delegating and the event won't be held.

Spoiler

I'm hoping it'll be held at Nationals. Dene won't be there, I assume since he hasn't been to any NZ Nationals and his last NZ comp was Wellington Autumn 2014. Still how many people could beat Dene's NR while it isn't that hard who will autcally practise. Maybe the clock NR will be broken by Oliver (creator of this thread) but then again maybe not. Caring too much about an event that's short that you want NR in never bouds well.

Spoiler

Fun Fact Feet has been hold twice in NZ (and Oceania has a whole) once at NZ Champianships 2009 and New Zealand Nationals 2013.

Can't reeeaaallly afford it. But what would the chances of bigBLD (4/5/MBLD) be?

Wellington may have

Clock could be an easy NR. I think sub-12 is reasonable for a weeks practice?

Let me just do a bit of emailing and I will get back to you on this.

Hi,

Does anyone know if there will be a comp in Auckland NZ?Because I can only go to places around Auckland, or is anyone going to be hosting 1 around Auckland?

Thanks

Nationals is planned to be there, but if they're unable to get a venue it'll be somewhere else. The comp is planned to be on Dec 4th. However none of this is confirmed yet. So wait and see.

When you say there do you mean Auckland?

Yeah, but just wait until it's annoced. Nothing is confirmed.
