** In events with a "cutoff," every competitor gets two attempts to complete a solve faster than the cutoff time. If you complete at least one of your two attempts faster than the cutoff time, you will be allowed to finish an average. Otherwise, your first two times will be recorded as your result.
*** These time limits are strict times after which the judge will stop you, and your result will be recorded as a DNF (Did Not Finish). Once you have recorded two DNFs, your average will be recorded as DNF.
You can find your heat schedule on this spreadsheet. To get your schedule, hover over your name and then click on the "#gid" link that shows up. A print up of your schedule will be provided at Registration on Saturday. Note that all of the times listed are very rough estimates, and these can change depending on whether we get ahead or behind schedule. I recommend being ready to compete about 10-15 minutes before your listed start time. This spreadsheet will be updated very frequently throughout the competition to reflect schedule changes as well as heat schedules for subsequent rounds. Therefore, please bookmark this page to stay updated.

First, please be familiar with the WCA Regulations, found here:
https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/regulations/
Of course, those regulations contain a lot of legalese, so below we have put a video made specifically for new cubers, just to show them the basics of competing. This video will explain most of what a first timer will need to know.
