Nice job Nakajima!
can it be that the WR is DNF?
he donīt wear foot-ware on the picture
WCA-regulations:
2h) Competitors must be fully dressed. Competitors may dress in jeans, pants, shorts, slacks, skirts, foot-wear, T-shirts or dress shirts. Hats may be worn. Clothes must not display vulgar language or have inappropriate pictures.
As the WCA delegate at the competition did not disqualify him for not wearing shoes, it is a valid WROriginally Posted by mycube
There are shoes under the table, so he could well have been wearing them during the actual solve
You can't prove that he wasn't wearing shoes during the solve.And this rule is IMO just to avoid abuses, not to force competitors te be perfectly dressed.
The WCA regulations say MAY, which means you are allowed to. It doesn't say you have to have footwear on. The only "must" that applies here is "Competitors must be fully dressed", and in that case it's up to the WCA delegate. If they're OK with what Nakaji was wearing, it's fine.
PS: This record is crazy, and I still think sub-1 is insane. Maybe I'm just very behind the times
Congratz Nakaji! Sub 1 is still so insane to me.
we had already had a discussion about some barefeet pyraminx solves by odders. and if i remember correctly a delegate wrote that you are not being disqualified unless the delegate (of that competition) asks you to put on your shoes AND you ignore it.
so i guess the WR is valid
Also, try feet solving with shoes on.
