[Pedro]

oh, and btw, will there be a "shop" at the championship? I'd really like to buy a stackmat timer...

Hi Pedro,

There will be a puzzle market with some commercial sellers. But I do not think there will be a table for stackmats. Maybe some of the other competitors will bring some.
Otherwise: come to me because I will be selling some.

See you soon!

Ron

 

[Pedro]

ok, Ron

could you reserve one for me, then?

Just quick FAQ, is the table for the competition just "normal" table or "cube table" (like in WC03)? Will we be able to sit or have to stand for solves?

 

[Ron]

Hi Harris,

We will use large wooden cubes. I think they are actually 3x3x2 cubes.
Underneath the cubes is an opening on the competitor's side. So you can put your knees underneath it.
The height will be roughly the same. So if you want to sit, you need a high chair.

See you soon,

Ron

And "clone" cubes are allowed, right? Such as cube4you.com DIYs...they are allowed? Just checking to make sure :O

See you in a few days,

-Harris
