US Nationals 2011

[nlCuber22]

I am not sure whether to commit or not... unfortunately my work doesnt like to let me know until like 3 days before whether i cna go or not...
i better be able to go >.>

If you tell them this far in advance surely it should be okay?

I've been looking into flights to Columbus from Denver for the last month or so. All around $350+. I'm considering flying to Chicago and renting a car and doing a road trip as well if I can't find any cheaper flights. What have you guys been paying for flights?

 

[RyanReese09]

If anyone lives near Maryland (we are near Baltimore, somewhat, could drive somewhat out of way to get you), and wishes to carpool with me/Eric then speak up. You'd have to help pay for gas but..yeah.

Considering just driving the 7 hours to get there..it'd be a lot cheaper.

Can fit 2 people most likely. As long as you don't have a large load of luggage.

 

[AustinReed]

I may come this year. If I can, can't wait to see you all there!

If you're interested in carpooling, let me know.

Basically, get to Harrisburg somehow (bus) and maybe it'll work out.
Minimal luggage. My seat and one other are taken. Small car.

Not to sound selfish, but any word on prize money? I just committed at least $450 to this trip and I was hoping to win some of it back.

 

[Tim Reynolds]

In the past (2009) the prize money for 5x5 - 7x7 was donated by V-Cubes. I don't believe we've heard from them at all this year on prize money.

You didn't have waffles for breakfast like I did, today, now did you.

We can't always get what we want buddy xD

Edit: BUMP!

There's so many foreigners, might as well call this World Championships.

Don't forget to sign up and pay if you haven't already. Registration fees go up on April 1st.

 

[Andrew Ricci]

There's a chance I will carpool with a friend, so I may be able to make it. But it's a 12 hour drive. O___O

 

[JyH]

I might. But I also live in MA, so the drive would be really long.

Damnit, Tim. That's why you should post this on April 1st.

Thanks for the reminder.

I'll be heading up there in a carpool with a few other cubers from the south.

It'll be great to see everyone again!

 

[CubesOfTheWorld]

Important for anyone in NE USA (or anyone flying there.)
MegaBus routes just expanded quite a bit. Check it out.

ALSO ALSO ALSO
Wanna go to CO the weekend after? THERE'S A BUS FOR THAT

 

[That70sShowDude]

Don't think I'm going.

 

[RyanReese09]

Don't think I'm going.

I do not approve of this.

So let's hypothetically say that you win US Nationals 2011. And you have the choice between $500 now as a prize, or you flip a coin, essentially betting $600. If it lands one way, you get $1200. If it lands the other way, you get nothing. Which do you choose?

Do the numbers change if we're in Vegas and you're betting on a roulette wheel?
