To celebrate the coming 2025 new year, I have decided to host my first Speedsolving.com Forum competition, which I will attempt to turn into an annual tradition to welcome each new year in future.

Events​

This competition will feature all Mini Guildford events, as well as 3x3 Blindfolded. Those events are:
  • 2x2
  • 3x3
  • 4x4
  • 5x5
  • One Handed
  • Pyraminx
  • Skewb
  • Square-1
  • Megaminx
  • Clock
  • 3BLD
I will be competing in all events except for 3BLD. Unless I can't. Which in that case I won't.

Registration​

All you need to do to register for this comp is reply to the thread with the events you will be competing in. React to the post if you wish. From there I will add your username to the Spoiler below, then your events and your username to the spreadsheets.

Registration is Currently: OPEN
Competitor Limit: 30 (may be increased 5 a time if high traction appears)
Registration closes January 19th.

Rounds​

Each event will feature a First Round and a Finals. The top 50% of an Event will proceed to the Finals of that respective Event.

First Round scrambles were released December 31st and you must submit your times by January 20th, unless high complications are featured, in which case there will be delays.

More information coming soon.

I have not fully decided on the name yet, but it's mostly a tie between "Speedsolving New Year 2025" and "A New Year On The Forums 2025". Feel free to vote on these names, and share your own ideas towards naming in the replies.

The following bracketed numbers are the slots remaining in that event.

2x2 and 3x3
 
Thanks to all who have registered so far!
I have decided to widen the time you are able to compete, and release the scrambles in the next few hours, for the people who have already registered, and for the people who are yet to. Registration will close January 19th next year, one day before the first round finishes.
