  2. When I registered, I estimated my finish times for some races. The
    UNICON site requested this so that appropriate starting groups can be
    formed. I presume that this information can be edited by the registrant
    at a later date, just like many other registration details. My question
    is: when are the estimated times taken from the web site for the
    purpose of forming starting groups?

    Yes, you can edit this information at a later date - until the close of
    online registration (1 July).

    Filling in this information will give you a better starting position.
    For example, people who say their best times in the 10k are at 53
    minutes will still get a better starting position than those who do not
    put any time at all!

  4. The early registration fees are now finished - prices are now 1100DKK
    for competitors and 400DKK for non-competitors.

    If you want to go to the Final Party - I really suggest you sign up
    soon. The maximum capacity is 600, on a first-come first-serve basis.
    We are currently at 585 people, so only 15 spots left.

    The lodging is also filling up. We have almost 450 people staying in
    the classrooms, and I think there is a maximum of about 500 people.

  5. Hi!

    I will register this week... But i have one more question:

    In the schools, it's secure to leave all my things... Like clothes and
    everything?

    And anyone knows how much costs a simple hotel close to unicon (per
    day)?

    Thanks Again, pedro!

    John Foss and myself posted some information on accommodation earlier
    in this thread. The simplest -hotel -close by was 995 DDK per night,
    breakfast included. I say "was" since it's fully booked already. There
    are some "Bed and Breakfast" options which are cheaper than a hotel,
    and some are also closer by. On 28 March, I could choose between three
    that still had place for me. Their prices run from 350 to 500 DKK per
    night for a single room. Breakfast is optional and costs another 30 to
    50 DKK. Email me for addresses, phone numbers and other details.
    (I have more addresses than the three that had space, and that I didn't
    even contact because it already worked out for me. Some are cheaper
    than 350 DKK.)

    Yes, definitely. But I would recommend keeping your passport, money,
    digital cameras with you at all times. But clothes, unis, sleeping bag,
    etc. should all be fine in the schools. The only people allowed in the
    schools are other *registered* Unicon people.

    Connie
    PS to Klaas - MUni information on the competition website will be
    updated later this week or early next week. We can update what we know,
    and can only give estimates to what we do not know.

    Total number of competitors:
    Trials = 211 (174 male / 37 female)
    Street = 46 (7 Jr Male / 33 Expert Male / 6 Expert Female)
    Flat = 44 (6 Jr Male / 30 Expert Male / 1 Jr Female / 7 Expert Female)

    There are not any maximums for these events, but there must be at least
    3 in each category. Competitors must be signed up by the 1st of June
    for the Street and Flat competitions.

    More information about the Trials Competition:

    To Connie: It hasn't been updated yet - the text under MUni is still
    unchanged. Besides, giving more information as it comes available is
    one thing. But I actually asked clarification of the text on the
    website, so this is knowledge that apparently is known already, but I
    could not understand it because of the confusing wording (to me).

    So if new information is not forthcoming shortly, I don't really
    complain about that as I understand how busy you can be organising all
    this stuff. But then maybe the existing text can be clarified either on
    the website or in this thread (or both)? Thanks!

  11. Just a quick reminder to those of you travelling to UNICON by plane,
    make sure you don't pack any of your tools in your hand luggage.
    I made the mistake of leaving my Cooltool in the bottom of my small
    rucksack when I went to Canada last week and it was seized by customs.
    I guess they were afraid I was going to spanner someone to death.
    Fortunately I was able to get to the shop at the airport, buy some
    stamps and an envelope and post it back to my house.
    To avoid any hassle, stick this kind of thing in your checked-in
    luggage.
