  • I went to six comps so far, and it only gets better! First time, I was too shy to talk to anyone. Second time, I went and deliberately came up to people to talk even if it was awkward (I was 39 and a woman, so fit to be a mom of most competitors lol). But after that, I began attending our local cubing meetups, and then I went to more comps, and the last comp held in my home town was fantastic. I was friends with many local cubers, and I also knew many of the people from other towns. I wasn't as needy as my second time, and I had a ton of chats and interactions!

  • NOTE: depending on where you are you might have to register pretty much instantly as it opens. Here in the Netherlands most comps fill up very fast, and if you're late you end up at the bottom of the waiting list. Make sure to set an alarm!

You are so warm and kind and not intimidating. I was so scared of Rubik’s cubes and put off by their complexity for so many years. But your channel has taken away that fear and turned it into fun. Thanks for all your amazing content, Tingman!

  • My first competition was back in early 2022 and I expected I would be just there to compete and that would be it, but when I showed up I knew it would be a memorable one for sure. Competitions have been not just fun but even helped me become who I am today. 27 competitions later, I would not have expected I would be organizing one of these events for WCA beginners month! Since then I have also convinced some of my friends to go to some comps and they have become regulars. Also thanks to you for inspiring me to go to my first competition! Happy new year!

I absolutely think you are so right about everything you said. BUT, make sure to register quickly, most of not all comps show how many times a como had been bookmarked, and if it’s higher than the competitor limit, SIGN IN QUICKLY!!!

  • I have a few questions to ask about cubing competition 1. Do you bring your own timer or they provide it for you 2. What's the difference between cutoff time and time limit

    @vincethegamercoclover@vincethegamercoclover4 ай бұрын
    • they provide timers for you when you are actually competing, but as you spend probabky a good amount of time somewhere practicing, i would advise bringing a timer (mobile device with apps or something would work as an alternative) regardless. as for cutoff/time limit, if your solve is over the time limit it is counted as a dnf, but cutoff means you can have official singles, but if you don’t get below the cutoff time you cant complete the avg. for example i’ve never made time limit for square one, so every time i’ve competed in it it’s counted as a dnf. but for 4x4, i have made time limit, but i didn’t make cutoff in the 2 solves they give you (depending on the comp the amount of solves they give you will change but it’s generally 2), so i couldn’t complete the rest of the solves in the average. hopefully this makes sense!

  • I always thought that to be in a Rubik’s cube competition, you need to be less then 1 min. Because a lot of speed cubers are within 1 min. or even faster than 30 seconds. But my average solve is anywhere from 1 min. - 1 min. 30ish, because I still solve beginners method and still haven’t learned at least all of the PLL yet.

The day of the competition, I struggled a lot especially with nervousness, my hands were shaking and couldn't focus well during inspection. I already know full oll and pll, but literally sucked during inspection (esp. cuz my hands are shaking). Hopefully in my future competitions I can do better. 😓
