<h2>What is German Big Cube Open 2015?</h2>

<p>
  German Big Cube Open 2015 is a
  <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedcubing">Speedcubing</a> Competition</i>.
  Speedcubing is the activity of solving a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubik%27s_Cube">Rubiks Cube</a>
  or related puzzles as quickly as possible.
</p>

<h2>Where and when?</h2>

<p>
  
    <b>22-23 August 2015</b><br/>
  
  <span><a href="http://www.djh-velbert.de/">DJH Jugendgästehaus und Bildungsstätte Velbert </a>
<br />Am Buschberg 17/19 
<br />42549 Velbert</span><br/>
  Germany
</p>

<h2>How much does it cost?</h2>

<p>
  The entrance fee will probably (!) be <b>5 euro per person per day</b>.
  This applies to everyone (except reporters), no matter if you are a
  competitor, guest, parent of a competitor or someone else!
  Please consider <a href="/gbco15/en/registration">registering</a>
  in advance, since it simplifies the planning for us.
</p>

<h2>Competitor limit</h2>
<p>
  Registration will close when we reach <b>40 competitors</b> due to limited space
</p>

<h2>For beginners...</h2>

<p>
  There will be plenty of time to test the equipment (for example
  the official timing device, the Stackmat timer) and discuss the rules
  if you have questions. However, every competitor should have read the
  <a href="http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/regulations/">official WCA regulations</a>
  at least once before attending the competition!
</p>

<h2>Accommodation</h2>
<p>
  <a href="http://www.djh-velbert.de/">DJH Jugendgästehaus und Bildungsstätte Velbert </a><br>
  Please tell the hostel-staff that you are going to compete at the speedcubing competition. You may get a groupdiscount.
  On friday night I (Wilhelm) can accomodate some people :D. Just inform me early enough.
