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.
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😭
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
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
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.
Thanks for the tips, love your videos and have learned a lot from them. Though I have one question: What happens if the cube pieces fall off, or one piece turns?
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.
@@spritey3757 yes can confirm have dealt with pops in comp before and unless my judge just didnt care nothing happened (besides terrible times because i had to rebuild cube mid solve :P)
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.
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
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 🥴
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.
Another reason for failing on purpose is that it will help another person(friend,brother ) win.... People will think why? Because they can give you money for doing that
@@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!:)
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
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.
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!
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 :)
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.
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
The rulings around timer malfunctions seem absolutely brutal I would think that the Speedcubing community would have developed timers that are more rigorous and resilient to malfunction, rather than use the SpeedStack timers - after all, it seems like few people compete with actual Rubik's brand cubes
The timer rules either need to be rewritten or a new timer should be the standard. If the timer has clearly malfunctioned you should be given an extra solve regardless. 0.06 is way too restrictive
@@jstarandomdude nah I got a 32 second average, when my normal average is 28 seconds because I was really nervous and I got a dnf because my judge forgot to start the timer. It was fun though
