UK masters

the venue is a large school hall/gym thing (i've never actually been, i'll visit this week. the man who works there is now a best friend of mine, we have been on the phone to each other all day ;)) there is no limit on how many we can have in the room really... i doubt more than 200 will turn up, but you're right i should set a limit :)

there will be good light, lots of natural light from the top windows as far as i can tell, and it will be well ventilated as it's such a large room and there are fire exits that can be opened too.

ton: score sheet templates would be smashing.
 
it would be very useful to me if you could register asap so i have a good idea of how to plan the day. i might also need to limit the amount of people that come so that we have enough time to do all the events.
 
Please can there be 3x3 fewest moves in addition if there is enough demand for it? :( I thought it was said earlier that it would be included?
 
Cool! I will do the best I can to make it. I've always wanted to go to UK for a comp (for anything, really). I'm looking forward to this competition.

I hope organising goes well for you, Charlie. It's very brave, doing all this on your own! :D
 
(pm me about soft cubes, i'm waiting for you to tell me things ;))

Things told ;)

gatwick to swindon is two trains. one to reading, then one to swindon. if you go to firstgreatwestern.co.uk you can book well in advance and it will cost under £15. if you need any help with what to book let me know. i would wait for a while before booking flights, i need to get 100% confirmation and stuff from ron.

Sounds great, I'll attempt to convince some fellow Danish cubers to join me :)
 
Is it ok to register for events which you don't have a puzzle for although you can solve one? e.g. I can solve 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 but I just don't own either.

Also, are there going to be any puzzle sales? I'm looking forward to a new cube :) The one which I currently have wont really do in a competition. I have a small fear of getting a DNF average because of the amount it pops.

You can easily borrow puzzles from other cubers. There are usually two (or more) groups of competitors, you can always use the cube of someone who's not competing in the same group as you.
 
yes there will hopefully be some puzzle sales. one option is that i will take some "orders" and prepayment from people a month or so before the competition and then i shall place on large order and people can collect their puzzles on the day.

you probably can borrow somebody else's puzzles, but some people don't always like lending theirs and there is no guarantee that you'll get on with the puzzle they lend you!

if you are just spectating i suppose you don't HAVE to tell me, but if you want to stay for lunch etc you will probably be classified as a guest and it would help me budget if i knew for sure :)
