Manhattan Competition? (NYC)

[brandbest1]

You each have a lot of competing experience, but none of you really help out at competitions. If you guys had been judging, scrambling, and helping out at the comps you come to, I'd be a lot more inclined to agree. But none of you have demonstrated that you have what it takes to organize and run your own competition.

We could try to do that at later competitions (e.g. Levittown, LSC)
I do judge a lot at a couple of comps I go to. And lol I volunteer to scramble on the registration site and I end up not scrambling.

Do you have specifics on what time of year you guys are considering? I have experience judging, scrambling and helping out and will come to assist if I know specifics ahead of time.

No specifics now, this thread was just to see if people were interested.

Yes I would go to any competition in New York City

Yeah, I help out with judging a lot, and I would be willing to do this if it's okay.

I'm sure people would be interested in an NYC competition. It's a great place and it's very accessible. It's probably been on everyone's mind for quite a while.

I'm no delegate, but it seems pretty obvious that people would be interested if you could pull off getting a venue. If you could secure a venue and produce a list of available dates, people with organization experience may volunteer and perhaps tip the competition towards being official.

Yeah I emailed my school asking if the school's auditorium could be used.

I would love to go if I can but my parents said it would have to be on a long weekend/school vacation. I don't want to sound selfish but I think a lot more people could go if its on a long weekend or vacation week.

Not exactly, if people live like ~2 hours away or less they will most likely come.

ya i guess... sorry if i came off sounding rude

 

[Ninja Storm]

If it's during the summer, I'd very likely come, and with some organizational experience too

 

[Blake4512]

Depending when it is, I might be able to come if it's official.

[CubeLord]

NYC seems like a great place to hold a competition. I would go to one in NYC if I'm not doing something else.
