If this is your first time competing, it may be intimidating when you first walk in. To mitigate this, please watch this video that explains the basics of a cubing competition. Note that we may make minor changes to the flow of the competition due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Any changes will be explained in the competitor tutorial.
Here are some frequently asked questions:
Q: Do I use my own cube to compete?
A: Yes, and they must comply with the WCA Regulations.
Q: Can I add or remove an event from my registration?
A: Not a problem. Send us a message through the contact link, and we will gladly change the events for which you are signed up.
Q: What are cutoffs?
A: Cutoffs are times that competitors must reach within their first two solves in order to perform the remaining three solves of the average (For events like 4x4x4 and 3x3x3 One Handed in this competition). We use them because we would like to expedite the competition as much as possible while still being fair.
