Hackley Summer 2011 - July 30 - Tarrytown, NY

[MEn]

Hey guys, I'm missing a black Dayan Guhong with half bright stickers. The red side is the most chipped and the edges have the LunHui's torpedoes in them. Did anyone find it? I made an announcement during the competition.

Otherwise, it was a fantastic event. Managed to get a new official PB so yay

 

[That70sShowDude]

12.44ish 3x3 average.
2:01.27 single when my all time best 5x5 solve was 2:01.67.
Won 2x2 w/ a pretty bad average. Everything else was terrifying.

Failed OH but somehow got a 11.95 2h avg. That avg made no sense.

When the f*** did you get that?

 

[Andrew Ricci]

Here's the average video.

 

[Vinny]

These results were posted really quick!

I did great at this competition, and I definitely had more fun than the other comps I've been to. I broke all of my WCA PB's, too.

I cant put up the vid yet since im still away in conneticut!

I don't know.

They're trying to hide your cube for a reason...

...or because he complained that his cube wasn't scrambled yet during 5x5. When he complained a second time, I made sure the scramblers saved him for last. When he made a comment when he brought up his cube for 3x3 round 2, I put his cube behind the table so I wouldn't scramble it by accident. When he slammed it on the table and knocked peoples' cards off their cubes, causing some of them to get mixed up, I made sure he was saved for last again.

Lesson of the Day: Don't complain about your cube not being scrambled at the moment you want it to be, or else I will give you something to complain about.

I was grinning the entire time I read this.

Why is my 6x6 result listed as DNF?

 

[Tim Reynolds]

Bruce: The scorecard says DNF--there's not really anything else I can go off besides what's on the scorecard.

 

[cuBerBruce]

I believe I had a 9:13.xx. I have no idea why DNF was put on the scorecard.

 

[qqwref]

Maybe your judge thought a time over the cutoff wouldn't count...

I guess it's a good lesson to always check the scorecard after your solve :|

 

[nlCuber22]

Andrew - nice, congrats man. You deserve that.
Phil - what? You beat me in 2H? My life is over.

 

[masterofthebass]

I can vouch for Bruce getting an actual solve, but I do not remember the time. I guess this is why its prudent to double check your judge. The judge probably thought that because it was over 8:00, it should be a DNF :/

 

[AustinReed]

Ok, someone give me the 2x2 finals results. 4.16 is NOT an acceptable winning average.
Congrats to Mike though.

If someone had filmed his solve and the time was clear, would the result be changed? I'm just curious.

 

[RyanReese09]

WCA doesn't accept video evidence. So no.

 

[That70sShowDude]

lol'd at the certificate.

Tim Reynolds - WCA Delegate
Kyle Barry - Went to Russia

lol, the results are posted. The scrambles were pretty bad. I'm not sure that even one of them had a solved 2-bar. It was still a bad average for me though. My CLLs weren't on point, because I haven't done 2x2 since my last competiton in June. Forgot a few.

 

[qqwref]

Here's something funny - my second 2x2 solve was a +2, so without that I could've had a 4.33 average and second place

And yeah, they were pretty icky scrambles for CLL. Not too bad for Ortega though.

 

[collinbxyz]

Ughh, I got a sup 6 avh for 2x2. I did good on everything else though.
