I read through the regulations and found an interesting rule: organizers are allowed to modify the stackmat timers at the discretion of a WCA delegate, such as taping batteries in or placing o rings around the reset button.
The WCA rules are surprisingly easy to read. And if you're only competing in one or two events, lots of rules simply won't apply to you. I highly encourage everyone to read all the rules that apply to them.
Well I got a 23.97 second solve. It was an easy double x cross which I thought was a normal x cross. Then I got a RUR' pair and then a R'URU'R'U'R pair which I can do in 1.5 secs. Then the OLL was an anti sune and I got a PLL skip where I just had to do a U'. I'm so sad I lost that piece of paper where I had written that scramble or I'd give it here😭
Interesting fact: I took my friend to his first cubing competition once, and he didn't know how to use a timer And Kit Clement was at that competition, so he taught my friend how to use a stackmat timer And then Kit continued to watch his solve, which was nice
I once was in a competition and when I finished the solve I thought my computer was in front of me so I reached to hit the space bar and forgot that I had a timer
The competition registeration opened at 21:00. I registered at exactly 21:01 and there were already 65 participants. At 21:04 there were 125, whitch was the limit. Keep in mind in greece, where i live in there arent as many cubers
One time I was going to a comp with a 25 competitor limit. I registered 1 minute after when the limit was already reached. I broke my arm 3 weeks before the comp and didn't know how fast it would heal... THERE WERE 24 COMPETITORS GOD DAMNIT

Finally, some good cubing shorts content. I see so many things talking about the right trigger like nobody knows it. At least your doing a solve. Also technically that was a +2 because it was more than half way over.
My most frustrating competition moment was when my judge forgot to reset the timer from the previous solve and didn’t realize until I finished my solve, so I technically DNF’d. I should’ve looked down and reset it myself smh
This was on my homepage, and i'm so happy. I'm about to join an international contest, and im so excited because its the first one being help in my hometown. Tysm JPerm
for over 10 years, how come they still don't at least make the reset button press twice or hold for a second to reset the timer?? Like the accidental reset is so easy to avoid with this...
Its just how the timers work. Only until the recent speedstacks G5 I believe, that has a reset button that takes longer to register but I don't think the timer will be used in comps yet.
Appreciate the detailed breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Haha well, they can't read your mind. Your true goal may never be revealed. Maybe you're just very comfortable with that cube and you really like the color scheme :)
i just got gan 11m pro and i must say... that...... The cube casing/box is AWESOME and i always use it so my clumsy hand won't drop and break my plastic tesseract if it hit the ground 🥴

@@JPerm hey J perm I suggest you to take a look at my 6.93 PB Scramble! Its a easy yellow xcross and a straightforward f2l! I don't want to self promote but can you just try it and tell your time to me? The video about the scramble is on my channel!:)
If you have a 3x3 version of your main why don't you have one for other cubes like 2x2 or 4x4? Alos, thank you for this video it will help with my competition tommorow.
Hi jperm i dont really get any chance to watch your new videos very soon but today i got. I just wanna say that your videos give all the enjoyment that a person needs for a day
How do you determine if a scramble is the worst possible scramble? I'd think it wouldn't matter how bad it was, just solve it anyway, would be my thinking.
I thought u will review and unbox the x man tornado instead to this video. Btw it was so helpfull I knew many things already but the blind concept was great hoping for the competitions to happen soon.
Ok. I haven’t competed in 7 years so refresh me. What happens if you get to the timer so fast and your hands are face down, so when the cube falls and your hands are already on the timer they land on your hands or the timer?
Silly idea, can they make stackmat timers that has a small LCD on its back so competitors who record don't have to pick up their camera every time they solve? Just an idea
That final tip is so relatable😢after 7 years of waiting I’m finally able to join my first ever competition. (Might actually be my only competition ever too) Wish me luck!
I'm actually a 15 second average with a pb of 9.45... and I've never gone to a competition before. I should probably do that lol because they seem super fun
“You don’t get an extra since sneezing in public has been banned since 2021” So technically we are unable to sneeze in public because the world has blocked our noses
The biggest mistake I have ever done at a comp was that I don't read the regulations because videos tell me what I can and can't do however that made me put the clock during a comp on its back which is as dnf since you have to put it edges so it's doesn't mess up the pins except for that I haven't broken any rules
do I have to buy a stackmat timer myself? a competition opened near us in vancouver "cubing on par" a and b and I am worried they dont give us timers for the competition
Hello Sir, I have a very deep interest in cubing and I also can solve a cube in 45 seconds. It is just that I don't have enough money to buy a good cube and make sure to continue my interest. Please could you help me.

www.worldcubeassociation.org/regulations/
Article 5 - Puzzle Defects
I'll just copy-paste the whole thing, it's all relevant
5a) Examples of puzzle defects include: popped parts, pieces twisted in place, and detached screws/caps/stickers.
5b) If a puzzle defect occurs during an attempt, the competitor may choose to either repair the defect and continue the attempt, or to stop the attempt.
5b1) If a competitor chooses to repair the puzzle, they must repair only the defective parts. Tools and/or parts of other puzzles must not be used to repair the original puzzle. Penalty: disqualification of the attempt (DNF).
5b2) Any repair to a puzzle must not give the competitor an advantage in solving the puzzle. Penalty: disqualification of the attempt (DNF).
5b3) Permitted repairs:
5b3a) If any parts have fallen out or moved out of place, the competitor may place them back.
5b3b) If the competitor repairs the puzzle but finds that the puzzle is unsolvable later during the solve, they may disassemble and reassemble a maximum of 4 pieces to make the puzzle solvable.
5b3c) If the puzzle is unsolvable, and can be made solvable by rotating a single corner piece, the competitor may correct the corner piece by twisting it in place without disassembling the puzzle.
5b4) During a blindfolded phase (see Regulation B4), all repairs must be performed blindfolded. Penalty: disqualification of the attempt (DNF).
5b5) If some parts of the puzzle are physically detached or not fully placed at the end of the solve, the following regulations apply:
5b5a) If one or more parts without colored faces are affected, the puzzle is considered solved.
5b5b) If one part with one colored face is affected, the puzzle is considered solved.
5b5c) If more than one part with one colored face is affected, the puzzle is considered unsolved (DNF).
5b5d) If one or more parts with more than one colored face are affected, the puzzle is considered unsolved (DNF).
5b5e) Regulations 5b5c and 5b5d supersede 5b5a and 5b5b.
im pretty sure you can just get the piece that fell out and put it back in, and If a corner twists just twist it back. there isn't any penalies
