What?! I never knew or heard about that :[

Okay people, can we please stay on topic here? I understand chatting about the comps you will go to, or wanting to go to a comp is necessary but at least do it somewhere else? this topic is about Rowe and something very important to him getting stolen, im pretty sure talking about your times, wanting to be faster, and comps will not help much. So please it would help to have this topic's main idea not get buried throughout the numerous off topic posts. Rowe's 2x2 cube was stolen recently at Conneticut Open and its VERY important to him, he put TONS of effort into it and now has NO cube whatsoever for 2x2 at Nationals.

Dang rowe that sucks really bad

I bet that whoever organized the Connecticut open has a list of everyone who pre-registered's emails, and maybe a mass email would help find whoever stole his cube

just an idea

There were a lot of cubes that ended up missing at that competition. Lets hope it was just people picking up the wrong cubes, and not someone going around stealing them.

No no no. You can tell what your own cube is like. This must have been intentional. I could tell my cube out of any cube. Maybe if some people looked suspicious.

I agree that you can usually tell what your own cube is like, but accidents do happen. Someone could have easily put it in their bag by mistake when packing up their cubes.

Don't start pointing fingers without solid evidence.

this is true. someone accidentally placed my 5x5 in his bag. luckily I remembered who borrowed it..

Well V-Cube can easily get confused (they're all either white or black). But many peoples 3x3's went missing. Once you use someone's cube you can usually tell it's not yours. So that means someone would have had to "accidentally" take a bunch of other peoples cubes.

3 things..

1. Who said the same person ended up with all the missing cubes?

2. "you can usually tell it's not yours."

3. Even if it did end up in the wrong person's bag that doesn't mean they were cubing with it before it was taken.

Stop making assumptions and let's just hope it turns up.
Rowe's a beast, he deserves his cube.

Okay, there were 45 3x3 competitiors there, now you can narrow it down by eliminating the people that were there and on this forum. So if you don't have it and were at the competition say so.

It would look like this: Paul Wagner, I was there. (But I wasn't) My cousin isn't on this forum (neither of them) and they were both there and they don't have it.

So 43 possibilities left. (My cousin doesn't compete in 3x3)

Wait an idea just popped into my head do you think someone would steal his 2x2 if they weren't competing in that event? Possibly thinking it was theirs?

 

[Feanaro]

I, Jared Phelps, was there but did not take your cube

 

[Ton]

Maybe a dumb remark ,the cube could be misplaced, e.g. still at the venue or is in an other bag

How do we know that people here aren't lying?

This is easy for my case.

I, Jules Manalang, was there.

I only like white cubes. Rowe's is black. I would never take it. Hence I did not take Rowe's cube.

Tim's white Mefferts 4x4 with tiles was also stolen. Despite that it is white, I prefer the QJ brand and would never take a Mefferts.

Felix's Type C(?) was also stolen. Hoever it was also black. And I would not take it.

Well, if the cubes were actually stolen, let's think.

What motive would the person have to steal the cubes in the first place?

Who says a spectator didn't steal it?

 

[Paul Wagner]

Okay, I doubt they would and my idea can help maybe find it.

41 possibilities.

OMG MAYBE KATIE STOLE IT!!???

jokes

anyway, I sincerely hope that Rowe finds his cube. If I ever lost my type C that I've used for 8 comps now, I might just go crazy.
