Hi from the Netherlands

[Endgame]

I was also worried about that when I went to my first competition, but everyone knows you're new and nobody will force you to judge at your first competition (if you don't want to).

mats will

I just attended my first competition in May. Nobody asked me to judge. Unfortunately, not many people even came over to say hi to me but I was kind of shy so didn't know how to break into the groups of cubers who looked like they all knew each other. Could have been because I was an "old" lady?

LOL.. I do talk to old people so I would have definitely talked to you..

Welcome to the forums! Honestly, if you can solve in under 10 minutes, go to the competition. You'll have so much fun.

That doesn't make any sense. Having fun, trying weird puzzles and learning new stuff from other people at competitions is more important than the competition itself Nobody cares how 'slow' you are.

Agree

I would have said hi, but I had no idea what you looked like and just figured it out during the end of the day.

I prefer old people so probably would have singled you out
