Just over three hours for this one while watching the last two #wjpc finals. Personal best for a 500 piece, haha 🤦♀️
On the bright side, plenty of room to improve!
Lessons learned from this one:
- Puzzles with a lot of plain black are a terrible choice when you live in a dark house
- Making a plan is fine, but if unexpected pieces stand out from the pile just scrap the plan and go with your gut
- My pyjama top is not suitable speed puzzling attire
- Shape sorting works, who knew?!
- Remember to pause the timer if you're too excited and need to watch the TV for a bit (that individuals final was emotional, ok 😂)

Fediverse, meet Wiktor. He's a bit shy.
-
New nightmare unlocked: being the only one left who hasn't completed their puzzle so the entire #wjpc coverage is focused on you 😬
-
Wiktor from Poland is definitely my new favourite puzzler.
Gonna name a Pikmin after him, and everything.
-
Complete in 4hrs 52 mins!
Considering I'm on the floor, on a cutting mat instead of a table, and watching the #WJPC at the same time, honestly think I did ok 😅
It seems I've installed something called Puzzle Tracker on my phone, and also nobody's uploaded a time for this one on https://myspeedpuzzling.com so I'm actually world champion 😎
Help I've fallen down a rabbithole.

Day 2 of the #WJPC. Drink every time Valerie loves someone's shirt.
-
End of round update: I would definitely not be qualifying to semis 🙈
-
Would be rude not to.

@thegiddystitcher Is it just me, or do these jigsaw competitors seem like the nicest people? So many friendly waves to camera! #WJPC
-
Immediate drama in the first qualifier round, as Kristin (who came second last year) has DONE THIS VERY PUZZLE RECENTLY and in a very fast time too! 😱
What an advantage!
-
"Word on the street is that the Polish puzzlers are really bringing it this year"
Yeah if you thought this wasn't serious business, now you know.

Unreasonably hyped for the World Jigsaw Puzzle Championship to start later today. It was surprisingly compelling last year, with some real tense finishes and underdog stories.
I'll be curious to see if they've added a bit more production quality after the big boost in viewers last year, but probably not. It doesn't seem like that kind of organisation.
Anyway there's no official hashtag afaik so I'm going with #WJPC, filter as required if I get overexcited and post too much 😆
Go participant 921, Rebecca Lai from reasonably local to me! 🎉
(please excuse me covering all the bases with the tags, I need to meet some puzzlers to talk to asap lol)
