Good job everybody and thank you for competing in round one. I didn't think more than five people would participate, but lets still try to have more people next round.

I ended this round 40 minutes early so if you are a little late I will add you in. If you more than an hour late I wont add you but you can do the next round instead.

Oh well, its better then last week.

LouisCormier · May 29, 2011

I think most people wouldn't like this, but would it be possible for the race to be more often? A week is pretty long.

A lot of people (me included) probably wouldn't get the time, unless it was demoted to Ao5 instead of Ao12

Would you guys like it if I did a bi-weekly race instead of a weekly thing? Don't worry, it would be an average of five.

If I were to do this I would have it go Sunday to Wednesday and Thursday to Saturday? I would do it this way so you get time to do it on the weekend for both rounds.

Comment saying yes or no.

BTW, This round ends between the time of 10:30 and 11:30 because I havent done my times and I dont feel like doing it right now. Sorry.

Keroma12 · May 30, 2011

Personally I like it the way it is. If people want to do megaminx more often, they can just do it, it doesn't have to be part of a 'race'. With all the various race threads, it's easier to keep track if they are all weekly. Anyway, biweekly average of 5 is less solves per week. Just my thoughts.

This is true, but more short sessions are better to improve. Of course, this is just my opinion. Also it is hard to motivate yourself to do an average of 5 of megaminx unless it's part of a race.
