Hey everyone,

We organizers have been tossing around the idea of ordering Texas Speedcubing shirts again. This has been done in the past, but it was a long time ago and there have been a lot of new people competing in Texas lately. This is roughly the shirt design we're looking at (hopefully I'm doing this right, I rarely post on here).

View attachment 3717

The shirts would cost $15 if preordered from me, and probably $20 if we decide to sell them at the competition. Profits will go to "Texas Speedcubing," which means I'll be setting the money aside to sponsor future Texas competitions and/or support cubing clubs in a few local (San Antonio area) schools.

If you're interested, shoot me an email/PM with your name, t-shirt size, and any feedback regarding the design or shirt color that you'd like us to consider. Right now we're just assessing interest; I'll confirm with you sometime before we actually place the order.

Any chance we can get a BLD event?

The choosing of the events is chosen by the organizers based off of how many competitors are likely to compete in it as well and what is popular in that area as well as the want for that event. Skewb has replaced BLD in this case because skewb is growing in big popularity at the moment and the want for this to be held in competition is very high at the moment.

Yes, this. Also, we'd like to be able to include BLD, but we're just really not sure how well it would fit into the schedule, particularly since we are still working on finding dedicated people who are willing to scramble/judge. Perhaps in future competitions when we're a bit more experienced (this is both mine and Mike's first time organizing).
 
There is a HUGE chance I might go to this! It is the day after my finals, and I would have my liscence by then.. So I can just drive on over before driving back to Houston that same night :D
 
Other then the carol spring open and the remember the alamo competitions, are there any other ones coming up in texas?

Quite possibly. If all goes well, we are hoping to organize another San Antonio competition in the fall (but of course that decision won't be made until later this year). It's crazy how fast Texas speedcubing is growing right now!
 
Just a reminder that registration for this competition opens this Saturday at 12:00 AM (Friday night into Saturday morning).
 
If I ever get a date to organize a Comp I really want it in November or May 2015 xD Perfect names and such for them :P

I literally started to pray that last names will be there.

Other than that, would San Marcos be in the San Antonio area? There is going to be a cubing club at my school next year.

(Hopefully November competition over here. Would have a great name for it)
 
Sorry for the double post:

There is still time to sign up! There are 9 spots left, so make sure to plan your trip to San Antonio now!
 
strakerak: San Marcos? Sure! I personally have sponsored a couple of cubing clubs in the past by providing puzzles and instruction to the students. Contact me if you'd like to talk about this.

ZamHalen: Yes, you'll need to pay the registration fee at the venue when you show up to compete. It'll be cash only. Exact change if possible, please.
