<p>
  Clip Open 2018 is an official
  <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedcubing">Speedcubing</a> Competition</i>.
  Speedcubing is the activity of solving mechanical puzzles that are operated by twisting groups of pieces as quickly as possible,
  regulated by the <a href="http://www.worldcubeassociation.org">World Cube Association (WCA)</a>.

<h2>How much does it cost?</h2>
<p>
  The cost of participation in the expenses will be <b>5€ for CLIP students</b>, and <b>10€ for other competitors</b>, paid in the day of the competition, during the registration on-site.
  Please consider <a href="/clip18/en/registration">registering</a> in advance, since it simplifies the planning for us.

<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>
<p>The following is a video of the basic rules that you need to follow in a WCA competition: </p>
