Will there be 15 seconds total inspection for TeamBLD (from caller seeing cube to starting the solve)?
Will one person be allowed to hold the cube while the other makes a move for team solve?

Thanks

The rules for the unofficial events will be clarified before each event. But for TeamBLD specifically, there will be 15 seconds in which the caller is allowed to touch the cube, and even communicate with the solver, but after the solver starts the timer, the caller is no longer allowed to touch the cube. For the Team Solve, the solvers must alternate turns, and after each turn, they have to put down the cube. In other words, only one person can be touching the cube at any given time.

You don't get it

I get the joke, its not funny anymore because its so overused.

 

[DaveyCow]

Kevin Hays for 6x6. That's it.

I think he has a chance for 5x5 too.

Speedcubin?

I predict Sela for Skewb OUWR single and average.
(Currently Mitch has 4.53 single, and I have 7.78 average.)
Also, Hays for 6x6, Chris for 2x2. Dunno what else.

 

[Weston]

I think OH NAR single and average will probably be broken. Probably not the WR though.
