It's so close by that I'll most likely go.

But how are you gonna get stackmats, etc.?

 

[mrpotatoman14]

A little far from NC but if a good amount of people show interest I'll try to get there.

 

[Ninja Storm]

My friend is likely to get a $1,500 grant for this.

Should be enough ^_^"

One of my teachers has excellent relationships with nearby businesses and corporations. I can't guarantee $1500 but id say $500 - $800. This should be a good amount to buy timers, displays, mats, etc.

Oh alright, cool.
Like I said I'll most likely be there then. Might even bring a friend, if he's interested.

 

[cparlette]

I'll probably be there, anytime there's something this close by I have to try to make it.

Did you tell Bob about the 1500? I'm sure a portion of that would be fair incentive to make it official. (gas money, etc)

The other guy who's organizing this(and the one that's getting the grant) said it'd be closer to $800

Why not ask a delegate, who probably has all the equipment, to come? It could also then become an official competition.

 

[Ninja Storm]

Bob and Tim won't do it, so we're just going to do it ourselves.

 

[Ninja Storm]

Updated OP with information.

 

[MirzaCubing]

[RyanReese09]

Why won't they do it? Bob and Tim.

I'd be willing to help organize and run it if need be.

Bob and Tim both said I don't have enough experience, which I can understand seeing as though I've only been to 3 competitions. Help would be very much admired. This is my video on the competition.

If you have any more questions email me or message me please and thanks in advance for helping I appreciate it.

If I had a venue I wouldn't mind helping host it.

I've been meaning to host a competition for a while now, but have been unable to find a venue.

 

[Ickathu]

Well if this ends up being official, I'll probably come. We were going to go to River Hill Winter 2012, but it was icy, so we didn't want to risk it. My parents said that if I could find another comp in the baltimore/DC area, we would probably be able to go. I might still come even if it's unofficial, but making it official makes it a lot more likely we will be there.

 

[Ninja Storm]

Well, Mirza has his principal all for the idea, so there's a venue right there

Go Ryan. Make Bob/Tim do it :3

 

[Tim Reynolds]

This won't be official. There's already too many competitions in the northeast this spring. People lose interest when there's that many competitions, and turnout drops, and people stop getting enough competitors to afford a venue. If you want to hold an official competition, you should email me and Bob about it, don't just try to get us to agree on the forums.
