ALL COMPETITORS MUST READ THIS TAB BEFORE REGISTERING.
FOR FIRST-TIME COMPETITORS:
There are multiple things a first-timer must know before competing. All newcomers must be familiar with the WCA Regulations before competing. There is a video here for the basic overview of the rules.
In addition, please read this document before coming to the competition to learn about the procedures for judging. Thanks to Olivér Perge and Niki Placskó for providing this detailed judging information document.
ALL COMPETITORS:
When you arrive, you will receive a card/nametag with personalized information detailing your events and what group you will be competing in for each event. In addition, you will also receive staffing assignments. All competitors are expected to help at this competition. For each event you sign up for, you will be assigned to help out for just one group of that event. If you do not arrive to help during your scheduled event, and there are not enough staff members, we reserve the right to disqualify you from competing.
We will provide a judging tutorial at the beginning of the day, right before the start of the 3x3x3 speedsolve event. This will allow anyone with questions about how to judge to be properly prepared when they are expected to help. We hope that this system will fairly divide up the judging of the competition and make the competition run smoothly for all.
Fee:
There is a $5 registration fee for the competition. Your registration will not be confirmed (moved from the waiting list) until payment has been completed. Please note that even after payment, registrations need to be manually approved before appearing on the registration list.
There is a 60 competitor limit to the competition. Registration closes at the end of the day on October 30th. We will grant refunds to those who let us know before October 30th, but no refunds are granted after that date. Registration will be allowed at the door if space permits, but you can only register for the 3x3x3 speedsolve event.
This competition will be sponsored by TheCubicle.us!
Gift cards of $35, $25, and $15 to TheCubicle.us will be given to the top 3 finishers in the 3x3x3 events, and $10, $7, and $5 gift cards will be given out to the top 3 finishers in every other event.
