I'll try to have it completed this weekend.

What would be the cut off times for pyraminx and 2x2?

Roughly 30 seconds each.

Roughly 30 seconds each.

Tim.

REALLY ?

 

[pappas]

Probably wont be there because I do lots on weekends, even though I live in Melbourne.

 

[OMGitsSolved]

Roughly 30 seconds each.

Tim.

I would lower those.

 

[Dene]

REALLY ?

If you practise each of the puzzles for 5 minutes a day for the next month you will average under 10 seconds on each.

The point being, if you are taking longer than 30 seconds then you show that you don't really care about the event at all, therefore we do not feel the need to accommodate the cut off times to you.

So get practising!

I hope you can make it over here Dene as Melbourne airport is closed again today re: the volcanic ash cloud. Its been closed a few days over the last week or so.

 

[Dene]

Yes I am very aware of the situation and planning on getting a refund if need be. I hope I can make it though.
