How often would you attend competitions?

[Carrot]

providing that it's within 10 minutes. I will go to up 2 competitions per year.

The Waffle has spoken!

Too bad comps are more than 10 minutes away from me, so I have to go to lots of comps instead of just 2.

Logic xD

I would go to as many as I could for about a year, then I'd probably start just going to ones with events I like.

I already go to ~16 a year.

I call BS.

You've been to 17 since you started in February 2011, 19 months ago. That's only 10.7 per year.

Every 2-3 months would be plenty enough for me, enough time to make noticeable progress

Five a year would be ideal. Not too many that it becomes a chore to travel, but not too few that it seems like a massive event to me (which makes me nervous and make boo boos)

2011 - 2 :c
2012 - 4 so far, another next month, and it looks like I have time, so I might be at Levittown c:

 

[Iggy]

Around 4-8, depends on how many competitions there are in Malaysia in a year.

 

[IamWEB]

From 3 in 1 year, to 1 a year for 3 years... Somewhat like 6 / 4 = 1.5 a year .

 

[cityzach]

I went to 9 in 2011
and in total I will attend 12 in 2012.

 

[Robert-Y]

If I also had enough money, I'd go to 1-2 per month. I want to improve in at least one event before moving on to my next competition

 

[wasianrubiks]

If i could id go to maybe once every other month but school stuff is screwing me over!!!

 

[Ninja Storm]

While I do like going to competitions, saturating the amount I go to would ruin the fun of them. I thing 4-8 per year would be good; the spread out count would also better show my improvement(or lack thereof).

Good point. More comps = less nervousness.

 

[Kian]

17 comps last year. 13 thus far this year with at least 4 more coming.

 

[Noahaha]

Starting last weekend I'm having 3 comps in 6 weeks with an average driving distance of about 2.5 hours. Pretty optimal.

 

[ottozing]

I voted 4-8 because in Australia, that's about as many comps we get in a year And I try to attend all of them

 

[RCTACameron]

If there were that many in the Melbourne CBD each year (about 35 minutes drive for me), I would go to 16+. Atm, I really don't want to miss out on any easy 2x2 scrambles. Also, if I went to 16+ a year, I would probably be less nervous, because I could just say to myself, "it doesn't matter if I fail, I have another comp in 3 weeks time."

 

[tx789]

I have been to one in 2010 all the rest in New Zealand since then were 6-8 hours drive and expinsive to get to or the first day of a school holidays or something

 

[Dacuba]

This is my first competition year, and I went to three comps. Would do more. One per month would be cool.
The driving time was 30 minutes up to 2.5 hours. Germany ftw

 

[applemobile]

NEVER.
