Showing up to compete:
- This competition will take place at a private residence. The exact address of this residence will be made available to competitors by email shortly before the competition.
- Since you have registered online, there is no need to check in upon arrival. Please make sure you arrive at least 10 minutes prior to the beginning of your first event and allow for time to park and to find the venue.
- You will be called up in groups for your event(s). Shortly before the event, we will post which group(s) you've been assigned to and send an email with them.
- If you miss the last call for an event, you will not be able to compete in that event. Missing an event does not bar you from competing in subsequent events (but does bar you from competing in subsequent rounds of events you missed).
- Don't forget to bring a blindfold.
General:
- PLEASE BE QUIET. All competition attendees are required to remain quiet during these events. Attendees wishing to socialize or otherwise talk at full volume must do so outside the room of the competition, as to not to distract competitors.
- Photography and videography will be permitted, however there shall be NO FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY. This is very distracting for competitors.
- During the competition, please stay at least 1.5 meters away from the solving stations. Again, this is very distracting.
- Schedule is subject to change. If any changes are made to the competition or schedule, they will be clearly announced to all competitors in an email.
- All competitors will be assigned judging roles.
- Please provide adult supervision for children under 12 years of age.
- All competitors will be required to help the competition run by judging, running, and scrambling.
