This competition is participating in the official WCA Newcomer Month 2024. The registration process will reserve 25% of spots for new competitors. New competitors are considered to have no WCA ID or a WCA ID with 2024. Returning competitors are considered to have a WCA ID that is from 2023 or earlier. All competitors must still follow all registration requirements for their registration to be considered complete.
Registrations will be accepted based on the following:
- 25% of spots, as defined by the competitor limit, are reserved for new competitors.
- Initially, 75% of spots, as defined by the competitor limit, are available for returning competitors on a first come, first serve basis.
- If greater than 25% of new competitors register before 75% of spots are filled by returning competitors, any additional new competitors will be accepted on a first come, first serve basis alongside returning competitors.
- If the spots reserved for new competitors are not filled by new competitors before registration closes two weeks prior to the competition, remaining spots, up to the competitor limit, will be accepted from registered returning competitors.

The competitor limit for this competition is 220. The list of approved competitors can be found by clicking "Competitors" on the left side of this webpage. If there are already 220 competitors on that list, it means the competition is full, and any future registrants will be placed on the waitlist.
