With the removal of magic, is it possible to include unofficial events such as Skewb or Gear cube? They should take around the same time due to the number of competitors(?) (Or even 2nd round for Pyra =P or FMC)

Hey, can anyone here help me with something? I've never been to a cubing competition in my life, so I have no clue what to expect, however, I'm interested in joining one soon (this one) so, could anyone tell me what would be the recommended average/speed for a cuber to at least hold a chance within the competition? And better yet explain to me how it works too! Thanks! (sorry for being rather ignorant on the matter!)

There is no recommended speed. As long as you can solve and are mildy interested in speedcubing you should do. It's not all about winning - it would be strange if you just refused to go to comps until you knew you would win. You'll meet new people with your hobby and be able to pick up tips and be inspired. Presuming you live in Singapore, the venue can't be more than an hour away so it's definitely worth going!
