NOTES:

  1. If you don’t reach the venue at the starting scheduled time of any event, then you won’t be allowed to participate in that event.
  2. There won't be any "On the Spot" Registrations.
  3. All competitors must have registered on WCA and paid the fees according to the registration requirements in order to compete. No exceptions will be allowed.
  4. Participants must behave in a disciplined manner in the venue. Not doing so, might lead to disqualification.
  5. Please help judge We rely very heavily on regular competitors to make the competition run to schedule. It is not very difficult to do, and even parents can do it! If you'd like to learn the procedure then we will explain it during the introduction to competing, and if you still don't quite understand we can show you during the rounds as well. And you may judge whenever you want. However, if you are competing in an event then you are expected to help judge for that event. Obviously you need time to warm-up so we would really appreciate if you can help out the group immediately following the one you compete in. For example, if you are competing in group 2, please help to judge for group 3, etc. If there are only 2 groups, you would be expected to help for the other group.
  6. No flash photography under any circumstance within the venue. It is extremely distracting for competitors.
  7. If you are a spectator, please stay 1.5m away from competitors at all times as per Regulation 7b.
  8. Please treat the venue with respect, put all of your rubbish in bins, black bin bags, or take it home with you and keep your area tidy.
  9. There are thousands of puzzles at these events, make sure to keep yours together so you don't lose them! Keeping them in a bag and looking after it at all times is recommended.
  10. During blindfolded events, please stay silent within the venue. These events require a high amount of concentration and any noise can be distracting. We will announce when the silence will begin and when you may talk within the venue again.
