Congrats to all the winners.

Big thanks to Geert and Laure for a nice competition with a great venue, and Big KISS to my Endless Idol : Lars Vandenbergh <3

DYK :

* Belgium has a new young and beauty cuber and she is very fast: Sarah Willemart.

* Was nice to meet The UK team :) I vote The UK team is The Nicest team.

* LOL when Maarten explained me how his E perm: when he said U and I turned U' hahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh <3 you Maarten.

* I forgot E perm and YES E perm <3 me ( 3 times @ the first round)

* I'm beat my husband @ 2x2 and NOW OUR average is Equal : 8.98 sec :)

* I broke my 3x3x3 avg with 0.03 sec :) next competition must be better.


Thank you to all for a nice competition.

DYK:
my first DKY
almost 25% of 3x3 competitors didn't show up :(
No Belgian in any podium (GO Belgium!!!)
My fifth 3x3 podium in a row :D
Finally a consitent 5x5 avg (yeah!) after beating my pb with 20 seconds, SD of 9 secs etc...
Somebody almost caused Mats to DNF his 31.02 solve :eek:
DNF, +2 and pll skip in one avg :p (never had DNF and +2 before at 3x3)
Hold your breath during the (only 3x3 is recommended, big cubes are risky) solve and you won't stress that much :D
Team Netherlands wins

so thats all I can say.

And of course thanks to Geert, his gf and Lars for this awesome competition :)

What happened? :eek:

So Mats did the 31.02 solve, and the judge only wrote his own name down, and forgot to mention the time of the solve on the sheet.
I think the scramblers noticed just in time that the time was missing, and someone else already had to do his solve on the same timer, and he almost resetted the 31.02. So they called the judge back and he wrote the time down -almost too late-.

EDIT: I think his name was Jonathan Mauroy.

No, it was Clint. He told me that he got so impressed by Mats' solve that he totally forgot to write the time down.

And yes, it would have been an extra rather than a DNF.

what about:
A7c) The competitor is responsible for checking the result on the sheet, immediately after the judge has written it down.
I guess this rule implies that the time already has to be written down... for which the Judge is responsible (A7b).

Hey, was a really good Competition, thanks Geert!:)
Choi brothers: Any idea when your father is going to upload the video of the finals and also is there any chance you can send it to me. I plan to reconstruct them.
Finally uploaded it:) I can send it to you, too:)

I agree. If the judge doesn't write anything, A7c) doesn't apply at all, it's the judge and only him who breaks the procedure, not the competitor.
