Cubing Contests is a place for hosting unofficial Rubik's Cube competitions, unofficial events at WCA competitions, speedcuber meetups, and other speedcubing events.
The events are split up into multiple categories: Unofficial, WCA, Extreme BLD, and Miscellaneous. Extreme BLD events are not meant to be done in a competition-like setting, but instead need to be submitted individually with video evidence. Some other events also allow submitted results.
For general inquiries, send an email to admin@cubingcontests.com.
Cubing Contests is an open platform where anyone can hold their competitions and meetups. However, you must first be granted moderator access to be able to create new contests. If you would like to hold unofficial events at a WCA competition or create an unofficial competition or meetup, you must first read the moderator instructions. Please note that an unofficial competition can only be hosted on Cubing Contests if it's infeasible for it to be held as an official WCA competition.

Cubing Contests is powered by RecordRanks, an open source project created for the benefit of hobby sports communities. You can contribute through the Ko-fi page without creating an account. All contributions directly support the development of RecordRanks.

As many of you already know, the software that powers Cubing Contests is now known as [RecordRanks](https://recordranks.com/?utm_source=cubingcontests&utm_campaign=cc-april-announcement) and is currently being extended to serve other sports communities too. I wanted to make an update regarding this for the sake of transparency. As of April, RecordRanks is now being developed by Mintydev Ltd - a company registered in the UK. This does **not** affect the open source status of the software, nor does it change anything in how Cubing Contests functions. CC remains a free and volunteer-run community, and the admin team, including me, will continue working on a volunteer basis, same as always. We are also ending our affiliate partnership with [Cuboss](https://cuboss.com/) one month from now, after which point there will be no more ads on Cubing Contests. We would like to thank the Cuboss team for their support over the past six months! ☝️ I'd also like to share that I'm now **offering RecordRanks as a service** to benefit other sports communities with similar needs to ours. If you want a platform for organizing sports events with an end-to-end moderation process, automated records and rankings, and more, then definitely check it out! You can find a more detailed feature breakdown [here](https://recordranks.com/features?utm_source=cubingcontests&utm_campaign=cc-april-announcement). ‼️ Cubing Contests organizers and competitors can get a **10% discount** before June 1st 😱 Just let me know I sent you, I'll know what that means 😁 _Note: this means your community would get its own dedicated space on recordranks.com; it wouldn't be hosted on Cubing Contests. CC remains a standalone website with its own separate database._ I also have to mention that donations to the [RecordRanks Ko-fi page](https://ko-fi.com/mintydev) will now technically go to Mintydev Ltd instead of me as a private developer (though in practice this makes little difference, as I'm still the main developer of RecordRanks). These donations still contribute to the development of the software and you can now even contribute towards certain features being prioritized, like Personal Records! This is intended as a reward for all the generous people who have been donating over the past year ❤️ Thank you all for the support throughout the years (can you believe Cubing Contests is three years old now?) And expect to see many more new features moving forward 😉
