Thanks Kirt. I couldn't figure out how to do a double quote in one post hehe. Now I think I've got it under control.

Cheers,

Steven.
 
Depends on venue.

I'm not talking about venue, quality wise. I'm asking about venue, location wise. "Your distance from the two places, which do you prefer"

edit:

My question to everyone is:
Which location is closer to home?
Newcastle
or
Sydney Uni

I'm asking to get an idea as to the whereabouts competitions should be held

Honestly I don't mind, I can catch a train to Newcastle, it'll only take an hour, but Sydney CBD would probably be easier for everyone else. Does this deserve its own thread?

And more importantly: who's going to be the Sydney delegate? Tim's already said that he doesn't want to travel to Sydney every two months for a competition.

I think that this topic should get its own thread. I will consult TimMc about it.

I've had quite a few people saying I should be delegate. In all honesty, I am up for being a delegate, but I'm unsure if my age would be an issue (14yrs old turning 15 in May). I have heard that there has been a 13yr old delegate in the past though.

Well, we don't really have many other people older than around 16 or 17 here. Unless I'm being stupid, we don't have much choice here. I suppose we could go to the USYD Cubers Society...

They sure are very friendly to meet. Pretty sure their members have never been to any WCA competitions before this. They would need to attend more competitions (hopefully a more organized one), and gain experience from those.

I've been to a whole bunch of Melbourne competitions and I've seen how things go on there and have gotten used to judging, scrambling and organizing things pretty much.

as far as i know age isnt really an issue as much as knowledge of the regulations/experience with well... delagate stuff :p. but yeah, it would be sweet to have a delegate in sydney.

Sydney University definitely. Newcastle's a bit far.
 
Hey Kirt, congrats on the Sydney comp, really good times. Sydney CBD area would probably be best for most people, including me. Do you have any idea when we would hold it? I'm Blake by the way.

Thankyou Blake!
I would also believe that the CBD area would be best for competitors. Look at the number of people who signed up, plus how many actually showed.

Currently, no venue has been booked. So there is no current date it will be held. I think the aim is for some time in August. Bryson is looking into booking a venue at Newcastle.

I personally am hesitant on agreeing to a competition in Newcastle. I have not seen a number count based on the number of people who are local to Newcastle and willing to compete.
 
For me, definitely the Sydney CBD. I'm sure my parents would say allow me to go to comp in the CBD, but in Newcastle, I think they'd hesitate with their decision because of the travelling.

I, personally did not go to the comp that happened yesterday because I didn't mention it to my parents in time. But I sure would have loved to.

I'm 24 but hesitant to be a delegate since I'm unexperienced and might not be able to commit myself to every NSW comp in the future.

@Kirt The only messed up thing was the Melbourne cubers arriving late from the flight delay. It was a great turnout and we all had fun
cubing and meeting each other.

Hey Moops, long time no post

Yeah, Melbourne cubers coming late was really the only reason the comp messed up. Other stuff was successful, I hope I had explained well during demonstration.
Soz but, what's your name?
