Why isn't there any pyraminx round?

Why isn't there any pyraminx round?

Because it is a tetrahedron, not a cube....

Yeah true, but pyraminx is pretty boring so idc. I thought we would be having pyra because its so popular.
EDIT: I didnt see matts post.^^

(JOKE) Square 1 is a "cube" in its solved state so that should fit in perfectly!!

Does that mean it has to start off as a cube and is not allowed to change shape throughout the solve.

3x3 changes shape throughout the solve, so are you saying 3x3 can't be in this (inbetween moves).
I might end up entering multi. Been doing some more bld, and done a few 2 cube attempts. I'll see if I can get a fair bit faster first though, because 18-20 minutes is cutting it fine

I haven't uploaded the unofficial Skewb results from last time... >.<

@sq1: There wasn't really a high demand (nobody complained) and I wasn't sure if Dene was coming. But anyway, now it looks like the schedule is pretty packed.

I'll probably shuffle a lot of the events around when registration has closed online.

Tim.

I kept forgetting to ask you about that

It was funny, because me and David had probably done 15 solves (combined) before we competed
It would be fun to have Skewb, but the schedule is pretty tight.

 

[Alcuber]

lol i've also been practising pyraminx a lot even though we're not doing it

 

[Tim Major]

Hi guys.
Tim has given me permission to set up a stall at the back of the room, I'll be bringing a lot.

Kubaroo Cube Store. The Australian Based Cube Store.

-Shen Shou 2x2 $5.80
-Lan Lan 2x2 $6.30
-Type F-II 3x3 $10.50
-Type A-V 3x3 $13.60
-DaYan Guhong 3x3 $13.60
-Mini QJ 4x4 $9.50
-DaYan + MF8 4x4 $25.10 (I will have maximum 2 left, and only in white, so reserve one if you're interested! I will be ordering more of these soon, but they may not arrive by the 13th.)
-QJ Skewb $9.50 (Only in white)
-Lan Lan Skewb $9.50 (Only in black, and for a limited time only )(3 left so reserve interest)
-QJ PyraMinx $9.50

I may've restocked in DaYan + MF8 4x4s by then but unlikely. The Maru 4x4s should arrive by the 13th, in black and white. They are approx. $27AUD. I may also have Shen Shou 4x4s, but unlikely. All come in black and white, unless otherwise listed.
Thanks,
Tim

Registration closes Friday at 5pm!

Please email me any changes if you'd like to add/drop out of events. I'll confirm the schedule in the next couple of days based on those that have registered.

Tim.

 

[RCTACameron]

I wouldn't be surprised if James Chin registered at about 4pm. Idk if he'll come. Btw, Brian will have braces at the comp, just to tell everyone.

I'd like to do FMC, but I don't know if I should. I just don't want to slow down the comp... I know 60 minutes is the limit, but if I took 50 or something, that would be too much.

 

[Tim Major]

Me and AvG (and possibly Faz) will be taking up most, if not all of the hour, so no need to worry about holding anything up, as an hour is already alotted.
