Hey all,

[edit...date decided]
Princeton Fall 2010 will (most likely) take place on Saturday November 6 at the Richardson auditorium (it's pretty baller: http://images.google.com/images?q=richardson+auditorium) at Princeton University. We'll have a competition page up at http://www.princeton.edu/~cubeclub/. (November 6 is a better day for us than October 30...sorry to the two people.)

We're requesting money from the student organization project board to get this place, so we want a lot of people to show up. And seriously, this auditorium is too baller for a small competition. Tell us if there are specific events you want us to include!

Events definitely included:
3x3
4x4
5x5
3x3OH
3x3BLD
FMC

macky

p.s. How do I close this poll?

 

[Lucas Garron]

Tell us if there are specific events you want us to include!

BLD!

 

[macky]

Which?

We'll have these events for sure:
3x3
4x4
5x5
3x3BLD
3x3OH
FMC

There are multiple side rooms we can use, so feel free to suggest random puzzles.

 

[timspurfan]

2x2
3x3OH
maybe big cubes bld? (depending on the number of people)
Clock
Pyraminx

By the way, i would not enter all of tose, just suggestions, and my b-day is the 7th so Im pretty sure I can convince my parents to take me.

 

[StachuK1992]

This is so far in advance, it's pretty much impossible to tell whether I'll be able to attend or not, let alone which date is better for me. Nonetheless, I'd like Sq1 .

 

[macky]

Yeah, but I need to book this place that far in advance! That's how baller it is (if I may insist yet again).

 

[happyface352]

I think this is an awesome idea as there aren't any conveniently located competitions near where I live. Incidentally, I live in Plainsboro, which is around 15 minutes from Princeton.

 

[Swordsman Kirby]

Events I want:

-3x3
-3x3BLD
-4x4BLD
-5x5BLD



Er, either date is fine. It's not too far away for me.

 

[Kian]

I'm pretty sure I would come either day. It's only about 15 miles from me so it'd be a nice, short trip. I'll be happy to participate in any events that you have, I'm not picky!

I'm very excited to see how baller this place is.

 

[Jake Gouldon]

I would like bigcubes to be included, but with a time limit, so that not TOO much time is wasted.

 

[lilkdub503]

Bump. Is there a delegate?

[Is anyone able to give me a ride from New York City?] Oh hey, public transport is pretty frickin good in the Northeast. Little did I know.

It's cool if you accept my input only if I can really go. Square-1? It's a nice little puzzle, it's pretty fast to scramble and solve (not for me, but I just have to remember some algs). Maybe Pyra? I like both.

I have a couple of things for your site though: First, make sure you update that page on the competition, maybe include CubingUSA as a link, and that's about it for now.

 

[bluecloe45]

why no 2x2? i might go

 

[mikester17]

can you make this offical or give some more setails about it because im confussed about it

[Tyson]

This place actually is quite baller. It was in consideration for US 2010 but we had a much easier time booking the venue at MIT and also, I was able to visit the MIT site personally.
