UK masters

[Escher]

yeah, they're only $8 or something on dealextreme, and I'm going to put a really big order in near the end of exam period, so i should have a good couple of weeks at least in which to spend 8 hours a day practicing new puzzles
I might start practicing BLD now, actually *rushes off to watch byu's M2/R2 tutorial*.
EDIT

With Magic, would I be able to work out how to solve it within one of the fiv e one minute time limits?

maybe, i was at a friends today, and she owns a magic, and i got it from one state to another in about 5 minutes (I could only remember 'the twist' in the solution).

I have a few things to ask

Would it be possible to buy an extra T-shirt at the competiton (my friend wants one) or is it just or competitiors?

Rowan would you go with me in team BLD?

Well, if we were randomly chosen to do team BLD then I wouldn't mind, no
Yeah, I doubt you'll get to predetermine who you're going to be solving with (its much funner that way anyway, imagine being a fridrich user and trying to direct a roux users solve...).

Ye sure, I can probably teach you.

I was wondering about car parking space. Is there gonna be any at the school or will we have to find somewhere for the day?

 

[CharlieCooper]

there is loads at the school

 

[cookingfat]

there is loads at the school

cool, I was going to ask too, but figured there would be parking for the teachers etc.

Will there be any cubes etc. for sale on the day?

 

[Asheboy]

there is loads at the school

I thought there would be, just wanted to confirm

Also, are there any confirmations on lunch and do you know how much it will be for the t shirts for spectators?

yere I would like to buy cubes as well

 

[MTGjumper]

Meh, I'm more interested in getting a stackmat.

*still needs to register*

Also, anyone need a room? *points to shared accommodation thread*

 

[CharlieCooper]

sorry sorry loads of questions that i haven't answered. i am super busy with exams at the moment, i will be finished at the end of the week though so i will be of more help. basically if you have registered and i haven't replied i'm sorry, i will do it soon and update the site.

lunch, hasn't been decided, it largely depends on the number of competitors because obviously covering the cost of the venue is a priority and from there we will see how much money is left in the "budget" as it were. it may well be a case of providing extensive snacks to keep everyone fired up to cube, and then there is a tesco around the corner if you'd like something more substantial.

t shirt wise, very much a similar story, depends how many competitors and guests there are. also adam and i didn't decide yet if we were going to do them ourselves or find a reasonable printer that doesn't cost 34235 pounds

if you really have a burning question that relies on you booking your tickets for the train or something, ask someone to text me, such as adam or lars

also, rowan you asked about when to arrive? ... it would be most helpful if you could arrive during the registration time because then i won't need to relocate myself from doing other competition things to register you but i gather you have quite some distance to travel, so if you really can't make it that early then that's fine, just let me know and maybe i could do something really exciting like pre-registering you!

Also, random question: if I took a football, would anyone be up for playing? I've only got two events on the Saturday, and whilst I do enjoy cubing, I wouldn't really be able to cube non-stop for two days (which is what would be the case otherwise). I presume that the school field would be available for use. We can do UK versus rest of the World

Also, I'm just about to e-mail Charlie to confirm I'm going

I'd join you, but my football skills are very limited :rolleyes:

Well I mean, you really should stick around to help with scrambling and stuff...
Maybe a bit during lunch

 

[MTGjumper]

Oh yeah, that's a point I wonder what square-1 scrambling will be like Anyone who can scramble quickly and accurately will undoubtedly be competing.

 

[TMOY]

With two groups pf competitors there's no problem.

meh, I'm fairly confident I can scramble sq-1, I just checked and it uses the notation I understand assuming there's a slice move after each pair.
I'm definitely not down for solving though! So I'm sure i'll end up scrambling.
If needs be it's easy to teach the notation to people as well.

and of course there could be more people sign up, so 2 smaller groups could happen.

 

[CharlieCooper]

well as it happens, there are actually plenty of people that i haven't put on the site yet... around 10-15.... busy busy. thursday = freedom though and i shall update to my heart's content!

 

[CharlieCooper]

also, yes you can kick footballs at me, but only after scrambling, which you will help with or i will stab your ball.

666 postcount Charlie..? devilwoman.
