Melbourne Spring 2013

Congrats to:

Jay on sub 10 average (lol @ round 2 fail though :p)
Major on his crazy pyraminx averages (See what happens when you practice?)
Christian for placing in 3x3
Richie on his 50 megaminx single
 
I'll upload the Pyra OcR after MCD when I get the footage from Cameron. I'm kinda disappointed with my average. They were too good for 3.7 :p. Especially the 7~ move 4th scramble. I'm more happy with OH tbh.

Richie had a huge pause recognising the J-perm in his 50, close to OcR.

Congrats to everyone, especially to Jason, finally a good Pyra average :tu

Time for some DYKs cause I am bored

Did you know:
-If I could recognise Jayperm, I could've had OcR?
-Me and Jay are 11 buddies?
-Jay's camera stollery died so I recorded his sub 10 average?
-I didn't podium Square-1 but I podiumed 4x4 and Pyraminx?
-I fail at megaminx with the 2 sup 1:10s and the 2 sub 1s
-Zane Zane Zane, Zane Carney was my personal judge for 2x2 finals?
-I did like super awesome well at 2x2 finals?
-Bucket head?
-Take off your jumper or else you will get parity?
-59.xx Team BLD Sq-1 with jeckmang?
-Take off your shirt for no tips in pyra?
-Shengshou megaminx has the best packaging?
-Take off your pants for no parity?

I will finish up more when I think of them.
 
DYK:
-I'm tired?
-Too tired to think of many DYKs?
-We raised $451.45 for charity?
-My cubes explode?
-James Chin has the most ridiculously amazing set of camera gear ever?
-He filmed sooo much?
-So I now have 64GB+ of footage to sort through?
 
DYK

Camera Stollery?
Richie Uses a Dayan megaminx with the reverse ss colourschme?
After the comp I taught Cameron guitar stuff?
It's pronounced Kevin?
Feliks should choose school over comps more?
I left my Camera Stollery at Cameron Stollery's house? :(
I have to wait over a week until I can upload stuff? :'(
Some kids were actually fighting (kinda) over who got to judge and who didn't?
Cameron can't pronounce his own name?
Lightake cube covers?
Lightake hats?
Tim Major won a LanLan 2x2? :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I'll think of more later. Awesome comp. Got a bunch of awesome official PB's :)

I'm happy to get the footage off your camera and give it to you somehow (like unlisted video on YouTube or something.)

Best Pyra prize ever. I should've given it away. I have several LanLan 2x2s and a WitEden D:

I'm sorry. :'( There weren't many options for prizes (no pyras or pyra stickers) so when I was (hastily) choosing how to distribute the prizes I ended up using the LanLan 2x2 for the Pyraminx prize. :/
 
Don't worry, I think you did a good job of distributing the prizes with what you were given. If you get the chance, try and get my 2.25 2x2 average off my camera and sent me the files. I can wait until next week to upload everything else and I don't want you going to too much trouble :)
 
I have 2 prizes left that I didn't get around to giving out at the competition - a Gans Puzzle 3x3, and a 3x3 sticker set. I would like to try to figure out a fair, impartial way to award these prizes.

I was thinking of doing a 'most improved' kind of thing. I would calculate the % improvement from a competitor's best 3x3 average at one of the competitions around this time last year (so either Australian Nationals 2012, Kurri Kurri 2012 or Melbourne Cube Day 2012) to their best 3x3 average at Melbourne Spring. The competitor with the highest % improvement would get both prizes. I have checked, and only one person at Melbourne Spring hadn't been to either of those 3 competitions, as he has only been competing since Shepparton Winter 2013 in June.

Do you guys think this is a good/fair way to give out the prizes? It's easy enough for me to do.
 
Sounds pretty fair to me. For that person, you could have the percentage that they improved since Shepparton if you would like. They probably wouldn't win anyway as it's a smaller time slot.
 
Okay well I'll reveal it then.

The most improved competitor is Nyny H'Jinn, going from a 32.20 average to a 22.16 average - a 31% improvement.

Here is the full list of everyone's improvement.
