normally 2 to 3 rounds will be held over 2 days with many other events.

one round means - 5 solves each.

it is super easy.

Ahoy there,

I plan to be there. But if only Funskool cubes are to be used that a
shame. There are so many more better cubes out there.

Registered at the site but still no confirmation for them.

Take what ye can... Give nothin' back!

It's not compulsory to take funskool cubes only. I got it confirmed from John sir. The webpage was a copy paste of an old one and will be modified soon. So WCA competition has such restriction.

BTW.. there is Registration No field in the form, i'm not sure what
that is!! should I register separately in funskool portal over here

Thanks

Dear Cubers,

On the spot registration is there. However,  Pre-registration is for the organizers to have a clear plan to avoid disappointments.
The event is just for 3 hours from 3 PM to 6 PM only. Pre-registered candidates will be given priority.

Pre-registration can be done in anyone of the following places online -
1). http://funskoolindia.com/rubiks-cube.php
2).http://worldcubeassociation.org/results/c.php?form=Registration+Form&competitionId=BangaloreOpen2011

Anyone can register in the Landmark store in Forum Mall as well.


Have Fun Cubing,
John Louis


For small kids/children, there will be a separate challenge (not WCA) as well.

John Louis
