MIT Fall competition 2009

[waffle=ijm]

GOALS! For this Comp...

Pyraminx - To not POP at Tim Reynolds

=D but I'm a bit confused...do you mean Pyraminix?

:fp @ myself. Dan, this is not a misuse of a facepalm. As I recall, that is the real name for that puzzle.

Edited my goals...

 

[Waffle's Minion]

OMG! First comp! Horaay!

 

[Tim Reynolds]

Just a reminder to everyone reading this thread that, if you plan on competing, you should register as soon as you know. It will help us a lot with planning.

I plan on bringing 8 thousand guests. Is that cool?

Is anyone passing through the Harrisberg or Northern jersey on their way that could pick me up? I could help pay for gas. Thanks

Doug

Well, I have said screw it and have decided to drive up there (The jeep is already killing me). However, would there be anyway that me and 1 or 2 other people could possibly stay in someones dorm room or house? We would be willing to pay a few dollars for the generosity. Thank you.

Doug,

Unfortunately my space is limited and I've already offered everything I can offer to people. I'll see if anyone else at MIT can offer anything, but I can't guarantee anything.

[StachuK1992]

I have the OK to go. I'll see you guys there, but I cannot take anyone with me. Sorry Stachu.

Drat!
Hmm, well, it seems like a no for this one.

Simple. Crash overnight in the W20 Athena cluster.

And I'm only half joking...

That would be great if you could look. Thank you very much. If worse comes to worst I can just sleep in my car.

My aunt runs a house at MIT and offered to put me up so I think it makes sense to go. I only do 3x3 and will likely finish last, but it will be cool to have a profile on the WCA site. Does anyone know who at MIT is competing? My aunt was curious if there are any of "her kids" competing.

What do I need to do to register for the tournament and also do I need to separately register with the WCA?

Can there be a competition for the tightest sneaker game? Cause I would completely win.

 

[Ethan Rosen]

Yea, I registered but I'm still not 100% sure how I'm getting here. I should be able to drive, but my parents are semi against that idea.

Not sure about some of the people that haven't ever been to a competition but Tim Reynolds, Andy Tsao and Alex Mason all go to MIT.

Btw Tim I am taking the lack of an objection to my 8 thousand guests as you giving your blessing.

Sune: You only need to register once, at http://worldcubeassociation.org/results/c.php?form=Registration+Form&competitionId=MITFall2009. By the way, what house does your aunt run?

Kian: We have a rule that any guests that you bring must stay in the same hotel room as you. I don't have a problem with you bringing guests, as long as you follow that rule.

 

[HowSuneIsNow]

what house does your aunt run?

RUN'S HOUSE!

Also Random Hall. She was curious if any of "her kids" were competing. Havign an aunt at MIT is great. Her washing machines were connected to the Internet before most of my family members had email addresses.

Ahh random. Nope, no randomites signed up--a bit surprising actually. But I haven't spammed the dorm mailing lists yet, there might be a few more MIT registrants after that.

Uhh as it turns out I'm not going to this. One of the schools I'm applying to (Bard) has this thing where you attend a day long seminar, and then the next day they tell you if you got in or not. Guess what day I have the seminar? Sorry Tim.
