ALL COMPETITORS MUST READ THIS TAB BEFORE REGISTERING.
Before the competition, you will receive a card/nametag with information detailing what group you will be competing in for each event in an email. We will be relying on competitors to help by judging whenever they are not competing. Judging is very easy and is a great way to make time fly!
We will provide a judging and competitor tutorial at the beginning of the day, right before the start of 3x3. This will allow anyone with questions about how to judge or compete to be properly prepared when they are expected to help or compete!
We will need help judging for the second/final rounds of events as we can not assign staff for those in advance. Spectators are encouraged to learn how to judge; you do not need to know how to cube in order to be a judge. Having enough judges ensures that we stay on schedule and are able to leave on time.
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.
All results will be submitted to an auxiliary site (WCA Live) to determine placing for later rounds in the competition. To see the criteria for qualifying onto the next round of an event, check the Events tab for more information. Below you will find the link to our specific WCA site where you can see your individual rankings for this competition.

Please keep in mind that all results are entered and submitted manually by a volunteer, so give time for your results to be submited. All results will be done before the following round, or by the end of the competition.
