Im really pissed off at the moment. Im going to bangkok in the summer holidays. I dont think my parents will let me go again xD

Oh no, you don't get to travel to Bangkok twice in a single year. It must be rough.

Does anyone know when the World Champs website usually fires up?

It should also be mentioned that Worlds 2009 was not announced until May, if I recall correctly. I would imagine that the launching of the Worlds 2009 website is probably not a good predictor of the launching of the 2011 website.

For those of you who happen to be looking for cheap hotels, I highly recommend the Siam Star Hotel. It's literally just behind Baiyoke Sky and if you're sharing you would roughly have to pay only around 500 baht (~16 USD) per night. I would most probably be staying there with my dad

There will be a special offer for the Baiyoke Boutique Hotel. Around 13 EUR per person per night including breakfast.

Epic.

The Thai team is currently working on the WC 2011 website. Hopefully we can open the website within a few weeks.

 

[aikikai_cuber]

still no updates and registration is still not up?

 

[ilikecubing]

Just curious,how many have registered by now?

 

[masterofthebass]

0 because registration isn't open.

 

[Ron]

We are finalising the details of the registration, time schedule and some other details, so website will be open within 2 weeks at the most.

For all those that have already mentioned that they would like to combine the WC with some travelling in Thailand (alone or with other cubers), please see this thread: http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/s...nd-in-combination-with-the-World-Championship

I visited Baiyoke Sky Hotel recently, it was awesome! I'm looking forward to attend at the World Championships at such a nice venue

We are arriving on thursday morning and the first thing I want to do is go and get fitted for a new suit. Im thinking of pinkys. I suspect that Ill be the only one interested in a suit but Id be happy if someone else had the same idea....

Interesting that you say that, because I could probably do with getting a suit. How much would it be looking to cost though?

Ok, the following snacks will be banned during the WC, Popcorn – for obvious reasons, Pringles chirps – cause everything pops with Pringles. And If sport commentators from different countries comes the Swedish commentator Andre Pops will be banned!

I bought a tailor-made suit during Asian Championship 2010 in the shop near the reception of the Baiyoke Sky Hotel. Took them 3 days to make it.
I think they are not cheapest you can get, but I like the suit a lot and it still does not wear out.
