Fee:
There is a $5 registration fee for the competition. Your registration was not 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 45 competitor limit to the competition. Online registration has closed at the end of the day on January 29th. We have granted refunds to those who have let us know before January 29th, but now no refunds are to be granted after that date.

There is space for six to register only for the 3x3 speedsolve event at the door, on a first-come / first-served basis.

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, 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.

* Tentative, time permitting

Notes:
- (1) "Best of 2/Average of 5" is the standard for combined rounds. The result is the best of your first two timed attempts. If one of these two timed attempts is under the Cutoff, you get an additional three attempts and the result is scored as Average of 5.
- (2) Time Limit: Any attempt in excess of this time is recorded "DNF". Please help maintain the flow of events for the group and the round -- free up the timing station immediately after any time limit is exceeded.
- (3) The actual number of competitors advancing to round 2 might be less than the number listed here, becuase of regulation #9p1: At least 25% of competitors must be eliminated between consecutive rounds of the same event.

* There will likely be an intermediate round of Pyraminx, Top 20, scheduled immediately after One-Handed Round 1, time permitting; and possibly a final round of 4x4x4, time permitting.
** The number of competitors admitted to this round might be less then the number listed here, becuase of regulation #9p1: At least 25% of competitors must be eliminated between consecutive rounds of the same event.

All rounds are Average of 5. If there is a cut-off time, you must get a result below the cut-off time within your first two attempts to be able to complete an Average of 5.
