did you know that:
-it took ~2 hours just to get out of Budapest, and only another ~3 to drive 250 km to Lendva?
-you don't want to sit in a car which is driven by István?
-his car is perfect for hiding haiyan memory pieces from Bence?
- "hey Brúnó, how do you solve this case?"
a picture of this case:
and now you looked into it, so 1-0, I'm in the lead.
-you don't have to be smart to work at McDonald's? (of course you did.)
(after placing my order, I realised I have nothing for fries, so I asked the girl: "could I get a ketchup?" answer was: "yeah, sure...so which sauce for the fries?")
-Brúnó is an ideal gas?
-it's ambivalent to sit next to him on a road trip: the common part of your legs feels hot and gets sweaty, but he's the PERFECT pillow in a car?
-we decided that after leaving Hungary we'll be playing zichdog (or whatever it's written) but Lendva was super close to the border so we couldn't see any dogs?
-Brúnó to Bence, explaining our current location on a map: "we're here, and Zsilinya is here." 1-0 to Brúnó
-Dániel (Gömbös) didn't know his school is painted yellow outside, until I told him so?
-he's a SUPER NICE guy and I'm so so so so thankful for his hospitality?
-I'll be here for him when he visits Hungary?
-Ron and János (Rubik studio) are pretty easy to trick into looking into that?
-I've done the usual jesusin' up in 3x3: starting with a home average solve, which is a competition single PB, then messing all other solves up?
-still I've managed to improve 12 competition PBs from the possible 20?
-and I've just realised it at home because the only thing I cared about was my 5x5 average?
-Milán's first 5x5 avg was 1:18, 1:40, DNF, 1:26, 1:30 which would be a 3rd place for him, but the organisers lost his score sheet? he got a second chance, got a better average (1:26, 2nd) but he was a bit sad about the 1:18.
-this competition was not about "who is better" but mostly about "who is messing up not that hard"?
-especially at 2x2?
-David Gugl had the WR for half a minute?
-both austrian guys were awesome?
-BLD scrambles SUCKED? (so did I)
-the winners ceremony was held on the front door stairs of the school, sort of formula1 - Monaco GP feeling?
-Bence and me only lacked our favourite champagne, called "BB"?
-before the ceremony I got a 1 HUF coin just to trick the guys to look into it? the trick was asking "head or talis?" then flipping the coin, and when you catch it you just show that.
-after playing this trick Brúnó and me started playing a game, flipping the coin into each others mouth?
-the rules were the following: you can throw from the place you catch the rebound?
-Brúnó once catched it from 0,5 meter from me? :S
-now I feel something weird in my stomach...
-...and can't wait for the day to see again the coin?
-after swallowing it, we were making great jokes of it, like: "Balázs, you sound ironical.", "money talks, Zava barks" and "guys, I always swallow it"
-now I can't think of anything else but maybe later? there were definitely more things to DYK.

Olivér tricked me with "the case" like 5 times at GO

well, it's not called the case, it was just part of the trick: we asked Brúnó, apparently about an F2L case, but showing him that, this is why it was this case in that sentence
it doesn't really have a name, because we don't call it on it's name, so we don't even know it's name.Ron

I enjoyed Slovenia Open 2010 a lot.
On Friday I flew from Eindhoven to Budapest. The flight had a delay of 5 hours. It looks like I will get a 250 EUR compensation for the delay.
My suitcase was too heavy because of the timers. So either I had to pay an extra 75 EURO fee, or I would carry the batteries and bolts of the timers in my jacket. My jacket was heavy during the flight. During the security check I had to talk a lot before I could go into the airplane.
At Budapest airport I was picked up by Janos from Rubik Studio. We drove to the possible venue for Euro 2010.
From there we drove to Slovenia in around 3 hours. We arrived around midnight, checked out the local bowling center to meet some cubers. After that we went to the hotel. The hotel was extremely hot because it was built on top of a hot water source. The frogs outside were complaining all night that the water was too hot. Pfff, oh what a night!
We had breakfast at 6:50am and arrived at the venue around 7:15am. Daniel was already there, and also Silvia from the local youth organisation LIFE. We started building up and around 7:45am the first competitors arrived.
We had to work very hard to stick to the time schedule. Most of the competitors helped with judging and scrambling. Special mention to Robert Orkenyi, Ágnes Dóra Szermek and the great Nóra Szepes. My results were extremely bad, but I am not surprised about that anymore: no practice, no rest, no concentration.
There was a team of national tv, and Daniel also did a radio interview in the studio.
Domen Orosel showed true sportsmanship when he told us one of his times in the first round was incorrect. Therefore not he but Miroslav Delinac was able to compete in the semi final. Thanks Domen!
We held the winning ceremony outside on the stairs of the school. It took ages before we had the certificates printed.
After the ceremony Janos and I drove back to Budapest. Halfway we ate gulash soup, duck liver and deer, and a dessert of the best Hungarian tiramisu with nuts. What is this dessert called? I want the recipe!
Again we arrived after midnight. The hotel was almost empty. In the morning we drove to the airport, and again I had to carry a very heavy jacket into the airplane.
Thanks to Daniel for helping with the preparations of the competition, and for his support during the competition. Thanks to Erik Gal and his team for the score taking. Thanks to Silvia for all the financial and logistic support. She is very kind and hard working. Thanks to the rest of the team for their help in the background. Thanks to Janos for helping me all weekend.
Have fun,
Ron
