World Rubik's Cube Championship 2011 on October 14-16, 2011 in Bangkok, Thailand

[Crazycubemom]

In the Asian open in Bangkok last October, all prize money was paid in US$ cash. How is the prize money being paid for the world champs events please? Is it Euro dollars cash?

Sir!

You will not get any PRIZES because you can't solve Rubik's cube but Feliks is it important to you how much Feliks will get from WC 2011? I will be happy if Feliks asking about it not you Sir Zemdegs. But I understand your situation about it.

If you need a Body guard to protect Feliks with all prizes after WC I'll be ready for him ;D

Yeah, I am trying to change the WordPress theme, any advice would be appreciated.

In the CSS file, try changing the padding from

#content thead th {
	color: black;
	font-size: 12px;
	font-weight: bold;
	line-height: 18px;
	padding: 9px 24px;
}
#content tr td {
	border: 1px solid black;
	padding: 6px 24px;
}

to

#content thead th {
	color: black;
	font-size: 12px;
	font-weight: bold;
	line-height: 18px;
	[B]padding: 2px;[/B]
}
#content tr td {
	border: 1px solid black;
	[B]padding: 2px;[/B]
}

5/5 is not that hard, even I can do it

Seriously, limits are not definitive.

 

[oranjules]

i did 5.11 average on 2x2x2 cube -_- i hope limits are not definitive
i'll be there, mainly for pyraminx
btw, some limits are illogical : on 2x2x2, it is average of 5 only if you do sub-10 single. But you already did sub-5 avg in an other comp, so...

Everyone is accepted in 2x2x2. The limit A is 5 seconds for those who want to compete in 3x3 one-handed but did beat Limit B but not Limit A.

Can't wait for the results!

I have no idea who will win the prizes. I just heard that if you try to bring more than $1000 cash back into australia you might have big problems. I dont know if faz will win that much but I need to be prepared.

previous worlds used bank transfers, and since the money is coming from Seven Towns, I would assume its a similar situation.

My Bank Account is still EMPTY ! btw Have you ever heard about Money Transfer?

Everyone is accepted in 2x2x2. The limit A is 5 seconds for those who want to compete in 3x3 one-handed but did beat Limit B but not Limit A.

So are there definitely going to be only 2 rounds of 2x2? It just doesn't seem like much for such a big competition in such a popular event.

 

[Pedro]

I may be dumb, but I didn't get this:

Access to the following events is open to all accepted competitors:

Rubik’s Cube
2×2 Cube

And right above it says you need to beat the limit for 3x3 and 2x2...

What does "Access to the following events" means?

 

[Dacuba]

So faz is definitly going to the WC? I like

*fanboy*

What does "Access to the following events" means?

"Access to the following events..." means that everybody can compete and do not have to beat any limits.

Above are 4 categories.

1: Rubik’s Cube, 2×2 Cube, Rubik’s Cube One-handed (Small cubes)
2: 4×4 Cube, 5×5 Cube (Larger cubes)
3: Megaminx, Square-1, Rubik’s Clock (Strange puzzles)
4: 4×4 Cube Blindfolded, 5×5 Cube Blindfolded, Rubik’s Cube Multiple Blindfolded (Big-BLDs)

If you meet an A-limit for one event, and a only B-limit for another event, but within the same category, you are qualified for both.
Ex: you have 25 sec avg for 3x3 One-Handed (makes B-limit but not A-limit) and also have a 4 sec avg on 2x2 (good for A-limit). You can compete in both events.

Pedro, for sure you are not a dumb!

Why The Tradition of WC is not the same as before?

Seems to me like World Championship just for All Speedy Cubers and for Interest of many groups/ persons. "Access to the following events" ? I'm totally have no ACCESS! What happen here?

Sorry if I'm wrong.

Because this is World Championships. You don't go to the Olympics and expect to compete in everything. This is a competition for the world's best cubers, and unless you are fast enough, don't expect to compete. There's plenty of other reasons to go, competing for most is just hardly different than any other local competition.

I just heard that if you try to bring more than $1000 cash back into australia you might have big problems.

Just quick googling got me to this:

Currency
There is no limit to the amount of currency you can bring in or out of Australia. However, you must declare amounts of A$10,000 or more in Australian currency or foreign equivalent. If asked by Customs you must also fill in a Bearer Negotiable Instruments (BNI) form if you're carrying promissory notes, travellers cheques, personal cheques, money orders or postal orders.

Thanks Dan, but I won't go to Olympics and expect to compete in everything except my country pay it for me. And yes indeed This is a competition for the world's best cubers just like you and another Speedy so I wish you good luck and for a lousy cuber like me I need a injection to practice with hope that I will be able to compete in next Rubiks World Championships.

Is there any chance there will be some sort of live web-casting of some events?
