Yo Ethan any chance you could grab some Orangina for me? I mean you are an orangina provider ; ) Just in case you see any stores stocking it. I wanna beat my PB.

How dare you take my brother but not me up there lol.

I'm Selling some cubes or trading if anyone is interested. I'm more interested in trading.
Micro Alpha
A sticky transparent type C
a Red Guhong,lubed with lubix with florescent cube smith stickers
White lingyun
and maybe my black guhong or lubix elite if someone gives an amazing offer.

If anyone wants my dead f2 for some really crappy DIY they don't want anymore I'll happily trade.
o and a jsk

I am interested in the guhongs, lingyun and lubix elite, though I don't know if my offer would be amazing. For elite, could I trade like 5 cubes and maybe $10 or something? I don't know. Here are cubes I am willing to trade: I have the haiyan memory, lubed with cubesmith half bright stickers.

I have ghost hand II, lubed, modded with cubesmith half bright stickers.

I have F-II with caps that stay on, with half bright cubesmith stickers.

I have C4U interchangeable tile cube (with extra tile logos).

I have the QJ 4x4 nice speed, but locks up sometimes.

I have the Maru 2x2 with silicone spray, so it is very fast.

I have the New Type A-I.

I have a hybrid of maru 3x3 pieces with C4U screws and springs + core.

I am especially interested in lubix elite and the lingyun. If you don't want any of these, than you can name a price.

I am so excited for this comp. It is my first one I cant wait to hopefully meet some cubers from maryland and nearby. I am averaging around 33.xx with a PB of 25.17. Hopefully I won't look silly taking so long. Any advice for someone going to their first comp.

That's about when I did my first competition. Just go along with everyone else and you'll have a good time. =P

You said in your post you might sell the worn out F2, so you could try mine if you want another one. Ya, try them at the comp.

I'm going to be bringing my 11x11 and last night I scramble it and just now I did 2 centers and I don't feel like doing tht much but on the car ride I might solve some of it. Anyone at the comp wanna solve some of it for me?

If I have free time I *might* do it. Depends on if I'm doing anything tomorrow

Just so people know, who are doing BLD, I will have an extra blindfold for use. Use it with caution though, it's very bright sky blue. Just in case someone forgets one, I thought I'd post this.

Not particularly, I was going to possibly do it to warmup my hands.

Eh, not worth going up there, especially since I don't get off work til 11:30 D:

Question for Evan (if he knows), how many people are participating in BLD? Rough estimate? I know Mike, Eric, and I have shown interest, though unsure if anyone else is doing it.

You can still do that if you want.

Will anybody be selling any black Type C , Old tyPe a1, or aIIIf?

There are 13 people signed up for BLD. A few people are signed up for both BLD and Megaminx, so the number who actually do BLD might end up being lower.
To those people: we apologize that you will not be able to do both, but that was the only way to fit BLD into the schedule.
