Hey Ryan, and everyone else,

I posted a few days ago about this.

I am looking into starting the Weekly (Sunday) Blindfold Contest
again.  Chris Hardwick used to run this, and I am looking to take it
off his hands, and reopen it.

I have 2 options, and I am just wondering which you would prefer.  I
am going to use an automated system to create the results tables.
This is for the 3x3 "competition."

Option 1:
Like in an Official Competition.

Do 3 solves (or just one and say the others are DNS)and your Best of
the 3 is what determines your rank, and therefore the winner, for the
week.

Option 2:
Each scramble is its own "competition."  Whoever comes in first place
in Scramble 1 will be awarded n points, second place, x points, third
place y points, and so on...
Scramble 2 will be awarded points the same way.
Scramble 3 the same as well.

The Winner for the week would be the one with the highest total number
of points.

I am just asking because I want to know which of the two people would
prefer.

Also, I am thinking of having an Open Division where you can do any
puzzle that you want (cube size or other puzzle) and input the time.
You would only do 1 scramble per week for the Open Division per
puzzle.  Does this sound reasonable for everyone???  And which of the
2 options would you like more??? I was leaning towards Option 2, but
I've heard from others to go for Option 1, and so I am asking you, the
Blindfold community, which you would prefer.

Also, I could set it up to determine the winner for the year, and have
some kind of prize (of course thats long term...), and I need to get
the contest up and running first.

Thanks for reading my nonsense,

Craig Bouchard
May the cube be with you...
