Wow, seems way too many, how many adults? any of the older kids already know how to cube and can teach some of the others?

It was pretty chaotic, but fun. There were 4 adults today, will probably have more next week. They all got sheets to take home too so they can practice. No one else could cube.

Great work Jason. You never know, you may be in the process of training up the next World Record holder! 
My work gives me a free day each year to use for help in the local community. I might offer to do something similar sometime, maybe tie in a cubing activity with doing mock job interviews at a local school, something like that.

Nice fb, David. I didnt know how to figure it out till I saw your solution.

I was just going for the 2x2 block, I then searched for the other edge to start the solve but saw that it was easy to build the full block, FB in inspection is very rare for me, like once every 200 solves.

@Logiqx my latest comp is finally on the WCA site, if you get a chance to run the old timer script sometime.

I just ordered a CB G4 and Bochuang 5x5 both stickerless. Even did rush and expedited shipping for an extra $6 total from the cubicle. I think I'm pretty tame compared to some of y'all, I guess being a tight wad helps. Haha

Whoa nice! I recently ordered a load of stickerless cubes, including a G4. Though I ordered from Cubezz and took the free shipping because I'm a cheapo. I even created a spreadsheet comparing prices accross 5 different stores to see what was the most cost effective way to get all the puzzles I wantedI just ordered a CB G4 and Bochuang 5x5 both stickerless. Even did rush and expedited shipping for an extra $6 total from the cubicle.
and now I wait...Stickerless BoChuang is nice, I'm sure you'll be happy with it. Though I'm still torn between it and my Stickerless Yuxin and stickered BoChuang (which has been lubed and tensioned nicely)

I watched a few comparisons of the Yuxin and Bochuang. The biggest thing I chose it for was people said the inner layers on the Yuxin felt different than the outer layers, that was a common theme. I ordered the cubes for school from cubezz free shipping, and even though they came in a few weeks not having tracking just about killed me.

I've ordered stickerless skewb. It may come tomorrowe. In 6x6 I rolled my times to sub 7. I use Hoya method.

A Qiyi skewb? I have one and I think it's a bit better than my Moyu (although than stickerless green color is not good for my eyes). Which one were you using?

I use black from Moyu and my son has primary - he put out springs and for me it's harder to control it. And yes - Qiyi. I wonder how it turns. I won a bonus bon on last comp and had to pay only half of the price. I live around 100 km from the shop and I can got it tomorrow with normal shipping.
