Amazing, Zach! I created a new thread to prevent the flood of interest in the May 2014 (informal) NYC Memory Competition from overwhelming the USA Memory Championships thread! 😉 > [@Planning thread: Public Monthly Memory Competition (+May 2014 NYC)](https://forum.artofmemory.com/t/planning-thread-public-monthly-memory-competition-may-2014-nyc/29131): > > Friends, Neighbors, Colleagues, Greetings and good day. I tried to register on Feb 2 for the USA Memory Championships, but the registration was closed due to too many applicants. But some say that supply will increase until it matches demand. Let’s prove that true. I have encountered some interest in having an “Friendly” memory contest in May 2014.

Hi, All, I got a call from Tony to let me know that I was first on the wait list, and they had some cancellations, so I’m in the competition. I got in contact with Karen also, so soon I will registered and up and running! Thanks Erik / decision\_ for the timely advice! Looking forward to seeing you all three weeks from Friday, and again on Saturday! Cheers, -Steven ---

It looks like they just redesigned [the website](http://www.usamemorychampionship.com/), and [Jim Karol](https://artofmemory.com/wiki/Jim_Karol/) is the Director of Community Relations. Check out the site – it looks good. ---

Does anyone know the status on the live streaming? I saw that the notice about that was removed from the website. I posted some links to news coverage of the [USA and Welsh championships](https://artofmemory.com/blog/2014-usa-welsh-memory-competitions/). The Twitter hashtag is [#usamc2014](https://twitter.com/USAMemoryC). ---

Sounds like Nelson is 2014 champion! Alexander #2, Lance #3. In the photo, I think it’s: \_\_\_, \_\_\_\_, Nelson, Johnny, Michael, \_\_\_\_, Lance, Brad. I don’t know the faces of the other three. ---
