What will the noise level be like in 3BLD? I need to buy earmuffs anyway - my room is right next to the kitchen with rowdy people up at all hours

usually quite quiet

Sorry if I've missed something, but what time does the comp start and what time should we aim to be there?

We will tell everyone to be silent during 3BLD but for bigBLD we cannot guarantee this.

But it won't be completely silent because there will always be whispering and a few people solving

 

[Kirjava]

I PLAN ON FARTING AT THAT POINT

Only one round of 5x5?

Are any of the 1st rounds of 3x3-5x5 likely to be moved to the Saturday?
If not I'll probably arrive on Saturday evening

Cool venue

SOD IT! I've just booked into the Spindle Lodge

Closest to the venue I think so thats handy.

Who else is staying there???

Spindle Lodge +1.

Thanks all, got some ear plugs instead which should be enough.

Severe lack of practice lately, and doubt there'll be a lot of time to in future, so my targets are as follows:

3x3x3: sub-20 single and/or sub-25 average
4x4x4 and 5x5x5: to not hold up proceedings too much.
3BLD: sub-1:20
4BLD: sub-6:00
5BLD: one success, hopefully sub-15:00

To win an event would be a nice bonus!

Very very unlikely

 

[PeelingStickers]

Well, doubt I'll make a 4x4 or 5x5 average, but a good single from either would be great

Then again if I were to do an average of 5 for 5x5 it'll probably take an hour xD

Sweet dude! Can catch breakfast with you on sunday mornin

Any other cubers staying there or is it just us lol?

 

[cubersmith]

I just ordered a bunch from 51morefun tonight.

My aims:
2x2x2: 5-6ish average
3x3x3: All sub-20 solves, or at least sub 20 average
4x4x4: make cutoff
5x5x5: sub 3 minute solves
3bld: Success
OH: 40ish average

Somewhat similar to mine.

Anypony/body wanting to sell a computer connectable stackmat? Also old guhongs, will buy them if they are good.

The stackmat sounds good, how much?

I haven't even started looking for hotels yet, so I might stay there too if there are any rooms left.
