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.

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.

Popularized in the Pacific Northwest in 2018, a Favorites competition is an unofficial term for a competition that has most or all WCA recognized events, but competitors may only register for a maximum of a few events. This is done to give a region a taste of every event in a short amount of time. In an effort to mimic the efforts of those competitions, please read through this tab in its entirity. For those who have competed in competitions in the past, this competition will be following unique conditions compared to previous competitions.

  1. Competitors may only register for a maximum of 4 events.
  2. The current schedule is not final, and will be adjusted after registration closes.
  3. If you register for 5 or more events, your registration will be adjusted to only have 3x3. You will need to email the organization team to update your events.
  4. 4 events (including 3x3) will have a second round, depending on the amount of people who register in each event. All finals will have 12 finalists. Please refer to the table below to see which events are eligible for having a second round. Final rounds will be determined when regstration closes.
  5. If you would like to change your events, you can do so by emailing us on or before June 8th at 5pm PDT. Keep in mind that you can only register for 4 events, so if you want to add an event, you will need to drop another one in the process. No event changes will be allowed after June 8th.
