And even first place in 2x2...

Awesome. Tis gonna be awesooome!

Normally you can finish your solve, but don't get another go.

That's fine - I don't mind the indignity of being last

Yes and you might want to remind the judge about starting the stopwatch. I don't mind judging you Michael if this happens.

Thanks -- I feel included

 

[CharlieCooper]

Yes Erik is coming so that might mean you need to work harder Rowan Also, any number of people could also come over in Arnaud's car, so beware.. there might be MORE competition Also, how do you know I haven't been practising?

 

[Escher]

Just a tad harder...

Also, any number of people could also come over in Arnaud's car, so beware.. there might be MORE competition

No. Just. No.

Also, how do you know I haven't been practising?

I will be so disappointed in you that I won't come to Bristol.

Has anyone else recieved an Email from a certain "Ms Ray Hodges" asking for personal details prior to the event.

I'm not so sure if I should be giving up information such as my name, address and Mobile number to someone whom I don't know.

Does anybody know if this is Legitimate? My personal feelings are that, if they really wanted details, they would speak to the Organisers of the competition.

He's a great guy.
He organised me and a friend to go on ITV Calendar last year before the UK Open 08.

Ah. Ok then.

So long as I'm not giving my details away to some randomer.

He's a great guy...? Someone called 'Ms Ray Hodges'.. is a great guy?

I think maybe we have a Jiri/Jessica situation going on here...

MS IS OBVIOUSLY A TYPO!!!!oneone!

I think you're just confuddled.

My head hurts. Stupid genders.

EDIT:
So yeah, I thought Ray was the guy who called me from ITV last year.
Epic memory fail.

 

[Edam]

Ray is a woman, I've met her a few times now. All is fine,

God, this is getting close now. I'm going to start some hardcore practise. Official sub20 average perhaps?
At least a damn sub20 single.

 

[James Ludlow]

God, this is getting close now. I'm going to start some hardcore practise. Official sub20 average perhaps?
At least a damn sub20 single.

For me -

God, this is getting close now. I'm going to start some hardcore practise. Official sub30 average perhaps?
At least a damn sub30 single.

Sub 15avg on 2x2 lol - I don't practise.
Sub 1.50 on 4x4
Sub 3 on 5x5 would be nice, but a more realistic 3.15 is more likely.
Sub 1.30 on 360 would be very good. I've had a few recently.

really REALLY hard

Oh no, you've not been practicing 3x3 have you?
I'll finish EG tonight, so I'll be untouchable on 2x2 at least

I've been pretty busy with Uni, so i've only been practising a bit. I'm consistently low 12s/high 11s now, so basically sub13 avg and i'll be happy. Dont really mind about single. You're def untouchable by me at 2x2, not not by everyone!

Ah nice, I average about that (but I'm solving anywhere between 8-14 lol), and same, I really just want sub 13.
I think Erik is my only real competition at 2x2 unless Jude has been secretly practicing... Or if Charlie has learnt CLL behind my back

 

[cookingfat]

My goals >

sub 8 on 2x2
sub 27 on 3x3 (nerves may beat me)
sub 2 on 4x4 (James will beat me I think)
sub 3:50 on 5x5 (I suck)
1 BLD success (sub 5 would be nice too)
sub 1:20 OH 3x3

Ray is perfectly legit! She's nice and pretty cool. You could give her your bank details and all would be fine!

Just being cautious
