Sorry for taking so long guys, it's been a busy month with big weekends away for a mates stag do, then wedding, and then I sprained ankle the other day... but I got there eventually.

Thanks, works now

Awesome. Will there be mutliBLD?

Edit: never mind, just checked the register page.

I find this very inconvenient, because I thought it was going to be late December early January. Now if I want to archive my goal I have to redo my cubing and study plan.

Sorry, any later and it's far too busy with Christmas stuff, and January is no longer 2013 for the 2013 champs. Don't sacrifice your study for cubing though, study is more important and there will always be another comp later

It's alright but do you think that you can schedule an open in the start or middle of next year, maybe between February to April. I just want my times to official and to meet other NZ cubers.

I want to discuss the possibly of a Wellington Comp. At this comp in April. Since the last comp in Wellington was in July 2010.




Also I didn't say this earlier I like the new look of the site.

Anyone know if you can get a pyraminx at any Wellington stores? Or any online stores that'll definitely arrive in less than 4 weeks?
Not fishpond though. It seems ridiculously expensive.

Otherwise, anyone willing to lend a spare pyraminx so I can get a horrendous average with it?

If you are serious about doing it and there is a time slot in the schedule that you aren't competing in other events, then we might be able to let you do it then.

I so agree with you. More comps in New Zealand

 

[NZCuber]

Is there a store in New Zealand where I can buy minxs and speed cubes?

We want more too, but the key thing is numbers. We used to have several comps a year but numbers got too low, we can't run a comp if only 10 people come.

Having another te papa comp with the tv advertising could help with expanding the nz cubing community. Or just one in Wellington so lower north island and peoples don't have to travel as far.

 

[jbrungar]

... another te papa comp with the tv advertising ...

That costs a TON of money, thus BIG sponsors, and is why it hasn't happened since. One single ad showing at a cheaper time slot is for example $700 during erin simpson show, and goes up to over $20K during shortland street. That's just for ONE TIME, let alone repeated for more coverage.
