US Nationals 2011

TL;DR: Chill, go and have fun.

Is there any other reason?

Some people need this, and I've given out some pieces to some people (Sarah Strong, being one)...but anyway, if anyone needs spare black xcube parts, send me a PM as to what piece(s) you are looking for. Most likely I'll have some.

I need to know if I need to pack the pieces or not, and if no one needs any pieces, I obviously won't bring them.

Edit-Oh, also if someone has a spare 6x6 to let me use up on stage, let me know. Mine is misaligning every other turn, and impossible to speedsolve. I'm getting my big cube practice on 7x7 for the time being.

You should clear your PM's :3

 

[RyanReese09]

Ah, right. PMs are cleared now. Thanks for that.

To anyone who is dreading how bad you will do take a look here: http://www.cubingusa.com/usnationals2011/psych.php?e=3x3

The slowest (with time) entry is almost 3 minutes.

If you are competing and you think/know you wont be in the top round, or top couple of rounds, then just go to meet others who share the same hobby.

In all honesty I have been practicing less than normal (cubing) because Im nowhere near fast enough to get in to the top rounds, so now Im practicing starcraft 2.

TL;DR: Chill, go and have fun.

Haha it also shows that some people cant even solve it!

Registration closes tomorrow! If you're going, you should register and pay now!

 

[Tyson]

We should do it so that day-of registrations have to roll a die, and the number of dots showing on the die is the maximum number of events they're allowed to register for.

 

[ThumbsxUpx]

Man, can't go this year. Sometime in my life, I WILL make it to Nationals. Maybe next year. Can you guys do it in the South East next year?

 

[Hovair]

Im going and this is my first comp. Cant wait. My events are 2x2 3x3 pyraminx and megaminx. I would do magic but Mine is coming in a few days and I already registered. Ive practiced magic with my friends and I average 5 seconds and im getting better.

Can we, like in all other events, bring and use our own die?

Brilliant thinking!

Tyson: I suppose now would be the time to make die regulations If anything, you should the pips that are lying flat on the table (I'm pre-empting Stefan's "the other 5 sides are visible therefore are showing" type clause I'm sure he would find in such regulations!).

 

[cubernya]

Heck with it, I'm bringing my 20 sided die so I can compete in all events with at-the-door registration

 

[Kian]

FYI- You have 41 minutes to preregister.

 

[Jokerman5656]

make that 7 minutes

Or let them compete in everything but use a Roulette Wheel to determine per event registration fees.

 

[MovingOnUp]

I honestly wish youo could register at the door :/ because I wouldn't know for like another five days if I could go. But it doesnt matter because of the registration

Read his post again; it said the number of dots showing is your number of events. Do you have a 20-sided die that has dots on each side instead of a written number?

 

[AustinReed]

Sorry to got a little off topic today, but I heard someone was wearing a cube shirt at Cedar Point today (August 1st). Did anyone go?

You can. It's just more expensive.
