Staff Information
We have very few competitors so if you are not competing you will be staffing. For 4x4x4 blindfolded, 5x5x5 blindfolded and 3x3x3 multi-blind, judges will be judging multiple competitors. Judges will be responsible for making sure that harmonica holders are blocking the competitors' line of sight between them and the puzzle, stopping the stopwatch when competitors finish their attempt and making sure regulations are being followed.

For 3x3x3 Fewest Moves, 4x4x4 Blindfolded, 5x5x5 Blindfolded and 3x3 Multi-Blind all participants will be in group 1 together. 3x3x3 blindfolded will be split into 2 groups for round 1, each group will be staffing for the other.
