If this isn't your first competition, you will be assigned some judging and/or running duties throughout the competition. You will only be assigned these tasks in events that you're competing in. If you don't know how to judge or run, make sure to come to the competitor tutorial at the start of the competition. These duties will be on the back of your name tag (explained in the competitor tutorial), so please be aware of when you're expected to come up and help. This is required to keep the competition running smoothly and on time, since it is purely run by volunteeers. For non-first rounds (ie 3x3x3 round 2) there are no assigned duties, so if you see an empty juding seat then please come up and fill it.

We also ask that you keep the venue as tidy as possible as possible - please put garbage/recycling/etc in the appropriate bins when you're leaving.

If you need help or are confused about any of these duties, just ask an organizer or an experienced competitor and they can explain.

Welcome

For those of you new to cubing - WELCOME! This competition is fine for cubers of any age and experience. We just ask you to be aware of these basics before coming to compete.
