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. Thanks to Olivér Perge and Niki Placskó for providing this detailed judging information document.

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 (except Fewest Moves), 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.

Registration Fee:
There is a $5 registration fee for the competition. Your registration will not be confirmed (moved from the waiting list) until payment has been completed. Please note that even after payment, registrations need to be manually approved before appearing on the registration list.

There is a 50 competitor limit to the competition. Registration closes at the end of the day on August 21st. We will grant refunds to those who let us know before July 21st, but no refunds are granted after that date. Registration will be allowed at the door if space permits, but you can only register for the 3x3x3 speedsolve event.

Registration Update: Our competition has filled up as of August 2nd. If you would still like to compete, please pay the registration fee to be considered for the waiting list. If a registered competitor cancels their registration, we will take paid competitors off the waiting list into the competition. If you are not accepted by August 21st into the competition, we will refund your $5 registration fee in full.

Competitors can only compete in one of the 4x4x4 or 5x5x5 speedsolve events. Any competitor who registers for both events will be removed from the 5x5x5 speedsolve event.

This competition is recognized as an official World Cube Association competition. Therefore, all competitors should be familiar with the WCA regulations. If you are new to competing, you may want to look at CubingUSA's Competitor Tutorial.

Below are the times each competitor is assigned to compete or assist with the competition during the day. Times are provided as an estimate, and we may be significantly ahead or behind schedule at any time during the day. Please pay attention to the general flow of the competition and be ready to compete when your group is called, regardless of the estimated time here.

Competitors are assigned to help as a judge, scrambler, or runner in each group. Each of the columns with "Job" in the header represent roles you have been assigned to for helping with the competition. For each job you are assigned, there is a letter and number in the corresponding box. The letter indicates the job (J = judge or run, S = scramble) and the number indicates the group you are helping with. For example, a J1 would indicate that you will judge or run for group 1, where S2 would indicate that you will scramble for group 2.

You will recieve a card with all of this information when checking in to the competition, so do not worry about needing to print or save this information before coming to the competition.
