Wellington Winter 2015 (New Zealand)

[SixSidedCube]

I am coming too. Competing in 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, Pyraminx also maybe competing in 6x6 if that is going to go ahead .

Awesome man! What are you averages for those puzzles?

 

[SixSidedCube]

Is anyone else flying in to Wellington? If so, what day and what time?

24 are registered with a week left to go. Also we could have 3 rounds of 2x2. I wonder how many more will sign up?

 

[SixSidedCube]

I spoke to Alex and he said he will most likely come, so that's potentially one more! ^_^

 

[CyanSandwich]

Yeah it's a pretty good turnout compared to last year. We might even hit 30.

 

[SixSidedCube]

Hope so!

Just over 2 days to go! Does anyone have an predictions/wishes for the comp, results wise?

2x2: Alex Asbery will take NR for single by .5 seconds.
3x3: David Lim will take NR single by a lucky PLL skip
4x4: Alex will beat both previous records by being godlike
3x3 OH: David will take NR single by easy F2L into OLL skip.
3x3 BLD: Tom will smash NR and Average for this by at least 5 seconds.
Multi-BLD: Tom will beat his record by 10 mins +

I'd get a good single time too then. A single >1.34 by someone who use ortega would mean something like a 5 move scarmble or a solved layer.


Also I should get skewb average unless someone is faster than around 7-8 seconbds on average.

Skewb: Aneurin will get an 8.98 NR avg, Cameron will get a 7.59 single and 16.88 average.
2x2: I break NR single with a 1.82, but Alex breaks it with a 1.70. Aneurin then gets a 1.75
3x3: Alex will get a sub-NR single, but David will beat it by 0.10. Joe will beat his average slightly.
4x4: Alex will break exactly one of his NRs
5x5/7x7: Everyone will break their PB singles
Sq-1: 2 people will get sub-30 singles
OH: David will get a 17.xx single, and 23.xx average. Alex will get a 20.09 single.

Aneurin will get 3 DNFs. But luckily, never in the same average.

I wonder if the flooding and road closures will affect the turnout? Some people might not be able to make it.

 

[SixSidedCube]

I hope planes are still going too!!

I actually kinda got some of it right.
