Touche...but I was just calling it what he called it first.

Nobody responded to your email because it doesn't appear you sent one. I searched my inbox and have no emails from Riley Woo. Did you send it with a different name?

No... I swear I saw the "message sent" confirmation though. But anyway, I just sent another one, saying the same stuff.

I'm getting "Down for maintenance! Back up soon."

Oh whoops. Should be fixed. Thanks.

I get Thom and Brest! Yah!

 

[RaresB]

Hmm whats with the pyra heats, why are there 3 small ones and a huge heat 3

 

[Andreaillest]

Sweet. I'll be in heat 4 with Sarah and Breandan.

 

[Julian]

Pyraminx heats :confused:

 

[uberCuber]

It says my pyraminx heat has an estimated start time of 15 minutes before FMC starts, and there are over 80 people listed in that heat...

I get Thom and Brest! Yah!

LOL seriously? You just posted a picture of a $575 bench. There are 22 stations in the main hall alone. I don't think it would be worth spending over $12,000 on chairs. :/

Well yeah, obviously not those specific benches. >.> I linked that bench because that's the only "chair" that I can think of that has adjustable height and doesn't swivel.

 

[Tim Reynolds]

Whoops I fail again. Pyra heats are fixed.

Did you guys get my email about my events? I think I used the wrong email.

So we have at least 4 different methods in our heat

Yes, I replied and it bounced. I don't remember your email in particular, but I think my answer was that you can add more events during registration if there is space.

Well, if you're going to suggest something like that, you should at least figure out something feasible. That's like me saying "go hold a competition at a broadway theater in New York" and then saying "oh, maybe there's something cheaper."

In a general sense, why would we put in effort into any project if you're not going to put in any effort?

The big four!

Oh come on, it was just a random idea he had. He even acknowledged it was too late and they were too expensive to do anything about it.

On-site registration will be available during the unofficial competition (Thursday starting at 9 PM) as well as Friday all day and Saturday until 1 PM. If you show up at a time when registration is not listed on the schedule, it is likely nobody will be working at the registration desk at that time, so you may have to wait.

Everyone has to register on-site. If you pre-registered, it's just checking in. If you need to make changes, it'll take longer.

As there was some confusion about the prizes last year, I think someone should absolutely clarify (maybe it should be spelled out on the website). Do the cash prizes apply to everyone, or just US competitors? I assume, based on the clarification for the trip to Worlds, that the prizes are given without respect to nationality, and I sincerely hope that is the case, but I think it should be clarified now, so there is no doubt at the competition.
