Nottingham University Comp. May 4th-5th

[MaeLSTRoM]

Hi everyone!
We'll be holding a competition at the University of Nottingham on the 4th and 5th of May. It's being organised by all of us Notts People, so that's Me, Rob, Tim and Ryan.
Venue will be at the University, and we'll announce what room in the next couple of days. Because of where the Uni is, we'll be looking into getting catering for the event, but it depends on the pricing. Registration will open in the next couple of weeks, soon after we get the competition announced on the WCA site, hopefully this side of Easter.
The competitor limit will be quite high, as the rooms we are looking for are quite large, but the registration date will be announced probably with less than a week until it opens, so keep an eye on this thread! Also, due to not being sure if catering is an option, we're not sure what registration will cost, so again, keep an eye on the thread.

Also, good news! All events will be held!

Hope to see you all there

Registration opens 12th April at 6PM, and there are only 30 spaces available!

Bank holiday Monday? I guess I'm just booking off the Friday then.

I'll book it off when I'm not snowed in and the boss isn't annoyed that I'm snowed in.

OMG, padilla is my favorite, I'm so jealous. After him probably Bowley and Copeland.

He teaches half of a really good module on Lagrangian and Hamiltonian dynamics
My only experience with Bowley is that he covered one of my lectures a couple of weeks back - he was hilarious, didn't keep to the slides and kept wanting to call people b**stards. It was an extraordinary lecture
