If you scroll all the way down to Galanta Open 2009, it does not have a 7x7 event. http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/c.php?i=GalantaOpen2009

thats normal not all comps have 7x7 event also the 7x7 was to new then

 

[Tomas1988]

No, you don't understand, I searched 7x7 event for all competitions in all years, meaning that all competitions listed should have the 7x7 event. The one mentioned, did not.

maybe they didn't have enough time for that event.

 

[antoineccantin]

Look in the "events" drop down. It says 7x7.

Hrmm...that brings up an interesting point. Perhaps those drop-down menus should be modified the actual events once the results are uploaded.

that is one thing i always thought too but i didnt think it was that important but they should do something about but

 

[TMOY]

Yes, I guess the event got cancelled though, like Tomas said, I think they didn't have enough time.

I think the reason is that the 6^3 and 7^3 events were originally supposed to be made official before the comp, but the release of the 2009 WCA rules got slightly delayed and as a result they still had to use the old rules. We also had a few problems at Swiss Open 2009 (which happened on the same WE) because of that.

 

[Bob]

It's all fixed now. All competition drop down menus should reflect the events that were actually held.

Is this probably the longest name?

[Pro94]

3rd longest (37) if I counted it right.

 

[cparlette]

What's the longest break someone has taken from one competition to another, besides people who went to the World Championships in 1982?

I just competed in the River Hill Winter 2012, and my last competition before that was the Drexel Fall 2008. Are there any gaps longer than that?

A bit longer: http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2005DUMA01

 

[Sebastien]

looked up some people from WC2003 and found one quite fast: http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2003MORR02

~3 month longer gap than yours.

Also This gap is almost 5 years: http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2003BLON01

Quite the same as Michiel (I will not count the days now...): http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2003EAST01

I'd still like to see the overall answer of Rileys question.

I remember seeing some china comp that was devoted just to Magic and Master Magic

 

[kinch2002]

I have a couple of lists I'd like to see: Most podiums at one competition. Most wins at one competition. I got 16 podiums, 10 wins at the weekend, but I'm almost certain that wouldn't top either list.
