Als dit je eerste WCA competitie is:
- Maak een account of login op de WCA website
- Schrijf je in voor de wedstrijd (tab "Algemene informatie" op de wedstrijdpagina)
- Kijk even naar deze video, die uitlegt hoe een wedstrijd verloopt. Er zal ook een uitleg zijn voor nieuwe deelnemers net voor 3x3x3.
Competitors for each event are divided into groups. Some events (like 2x2 and 3x3) will have a lot of competitors and therefore many groups, while others (like megaminx) will only have 2 groups. At the competition, we will announce when a group starts so you can bring up your puzzle to the scrambling table and place it on the scorecard that has your name.
When arriving at the competition, go to the registration desk to receive the overview of the groups you are competing in and judging, scrambling or running for, during the first rounds. This is the minimum amount you should be helping out. If you want to help out more, you are always welcome to fill an empty judge seat. We appreciate this enormously as it helps us running the competition smoothly!
Competitions in Belgium are run with the help of Speedcubing Belgium's team. Our goal is to increase the number and size of competitions. If you want to organize a competition yourself, or just help us out a bit during a competition weekend, feel free get in touch!
You can find us on the social media platforms below. All new competitions are announced on Facebook, so follow us there if you never want to miss out on them!
Time limit
If you reach the time limit during your solve, the judge will stop you and your result will be DNF (see Regulation A1a4).
Format
The format describes how to determine the ranking of competitors based on their results. The list of allowed formats per event is described in Regulation 9b. See Regulation 9f for a description of each format.
