    I'll try to keep this as straightforward as possible, , addressing only the most relevant points (in my opinion, sure, but feel free to ask about any particular points if you wish) and claims which had not been brought up before. I'll also stick to facts and try my best not dwell on personal...

    Just to quickly clarify: There was a "please be quiet" sign right by the scrambler's table, but it wasn't handwritten. (And I did indeed ask one of the delegates if it was ok to hang it there, which was next to the entrance, to which he obliged). Side note: I'm still drafting an answer to...

    Or maybe I'm busy with other things? I'm watching the thread occasionally and have plenty of comments to make on some of Campos' allegations. But if I'm to do it, I'd rather do so with a clear head, at home and away from distractions. Also please keep in mind my appeal process is still...

    1. The event had a 60min cumulative limit, Bo3 format; 2. The 37min solve was an overly safe attempt indeed followed by the 9min success - Having already secured my podium with the latter, I simply DNS'd the third one; 3. The judge was the same. I don't know whether he volunteered or was...

    I'm not talking about you, chill - I'm referencing the comparisons the WDC official has made with the help of so-called "specialists", which did include comparing times from two different competitions, as well as an attempt to compare my big BLD results to my MBLD results.

    In other words, they have no proof and inexplicably have adopted a "guilty until proven innocent" attitude.

    They claim I got "suspiciously good results under unclear circumstances" (or something along those lines, forgot the exact words). Times being: 9:02min 5x5 BLD 16:xx and 06:xx 4x4 BLD 28:xx 3BLD The latter has been confirmed to be a misscramble (and the WDC official seems to imply at times...

    Since Sebastiano has plenty of assumptions, theories and speculations, yet no evidence to back any of those up (which leads me to question why wouldn't the responsible part from the WDC, contact, from day one, better qualified and more responsible blind solvers to offer factual, unbiased insight...

    It's just that I didn't recognize your username, lol. I browse the forum on mobile only so view space is limited (e.g.: signatures aren't shown). Sorry if that sounded rude, it wasn't my intention.

    Paraphrasing what I have stated to thr WDC: My very few official results on 5x5 BLD are not directly reflective of my global average at home. I had been practicing extensively, and had already achieved similarly low times prior to the competition. I'm not really sure how acquainted you are...

    Actually the WDC official in question imposed to me that I "keep all communications secret", which legally speaking makes no sense because I have the right to make fair use of such communications. That's why I haven't publicized them - but in order to clear up specific points, I'm referring to...

    Hi @porkynator, I appreciate you taking your time to clear up your side of the story. To address some of your points, I disagree, having had a handful of sub 30s at home, even with regular scrambles. My major hinderances are, by a very wide margin, related to nerves and execution. That is...

    It's worth mentioning that I have recently asked them whether there's any news, and my formal appeal has been sent to the board of directors as well, so they're well aware of this.

    Here's the Facebook posts from the WDC official that I mentioned. Disclaimer: I don't know whether the original thread on Cyoubx's Friends is still available. The most baffling portion of this, IMO, is when he literally says "(...) I have no proof, this is just speculation", which shows the...

    I'll probably add some other points later, but some which might be of interest and perhaps give some extra context: 1) Re: Facebook drama First off, When the ban was announced on the main page of the WCA, Kamil came to talk to me and asked if it was OK for him to post on Cyoubx's Friends (a...
