Lol. Not every event - no way.

I suck at bld, and I will lose sq1, pyra maybe, and maybe 6x6 and 7x7. The only events that I think I will win are 3x3, 4x4 and 5x5. Nick is getting good at 2x2, and beat me at a meetup recently.

I just logged on, tlo see the news, and I thought, "I wonder when the comp will be announced, and then this."

I can't wait. I can judge everything, and scramble 222, 333, pyra, square-1, clock, and probably a few others. It's late, and I have to get off, but I'll right back tomorrow when I'm not tired, to have a more serious post.

XD!!!!!!!

Edit: After doing a bit of computer clock, and liking it, if I decide to get a clock, and seriously practise, will I be able to do a quick side event of clock? Scrambling is very easy, and the round won't take long. If Johnson is still in Melbourne then, he has a clock, and might want to compete also. He averages about 30 I think.

Dude, it's not officially announced on the WCA yet...
We still need to sort out some displays from speedstacks.
Also, there will be no clock lol. Or master magic. No-one here has them.

Also, we probably won't need you as a scrambler, but if you stay as a permanent judge at a station, that would be much appreciated.

May be going?

If this is an official WCA comp then i will go. But if it isn't, then maybe.

I might compete in the 2x2-5x5, plus Magic, Master Magic (if possible for an event), Square-1 and Megaminx (If also possible for an event)

I can't be stuffed learning for pyraminx... Plus i've got exams now.

I might be able to judge for others at the station.

This competition will indeed be official - I will make sure it happens (by attending >.<).
Naturally I'll be there, I'll compete in all my usual events, and I will help out all day as always.

I desperately wanna know how Faz will perform in 3x3 :p Fingers crossed for the first sub-10 average!

I, along with quite a few others, will film both/all three (depending on how many rounds there is, most likely both) rounds there is, so it will definitely be on camera if he does. I should also film him in 2x2, as he had a 2.78 average at a Melbourne meetup recently.

I will try to make a lot of footage of the comp, for people interested. (of course I'll get someone to film some of my solves too)

Yeah. I'm going to learn full CLL over the holidays just after I learn full PLL.
