That sucks. Were any rounds from this competition invalidated or might be?

They already were - very few competitors means ever fewer good scramblers - I had to drop extra rounds of 2x2 and pyra for that reason, but I wasn't going to drop skewb. Got misscrambles that I checked within the round 3 times (ofc giving myself extra scrambles), after telling scramblers multiple times to check the image. Made the decision to invalidate the round at that point.

I see. I couldn't really tell because the schedule didn't have all the extra rounds. That is rather unfortunate.

Yeah, it was. It was sad for anyone who wanted to see another round of skewb, but sadly, all of the competitors who could potentially scramble had made the final. We got through the first round with one scramble group because Aaron was able to push me through during lunch, but it took a lot of time due to several scrambling mistakes (it was his first time scrambling skewb), so doing that was not reasonable for the time of the second round.

I have a few more DYKs:
...that a 4.62 solve on 3x3 is slow for Blake?
...only because it was the Lucas Garron scramble?
...that Kit pooped his pants?
...or didn't he?
...NO, WE CAN'T GO TO MCDONALDS!
...Not sucking in competition feels pretty darn good?
...Rami couldn't be there because he has a new baby cousin?
...this was probably the last new albany comp? (awwwww....)
...Isaac Frye has one heck of a youtube channel? (he's got like 35k subscribers, he is primarily a gaming channel for super mario games)
...I'm jealous of David Cipriano, because he WON an event in his first competition and i have yet to podium in anything?
...Small comps are great?
...NO, WE STILL CAN'T GO TO MCDONALDS!
Thanks to all who came!
