So we have to pay to compete now!?!From next week (nr 4) we'll have prices...
Looking for a "z"?
That's pretty neat though.
Will the amount of events that you participate in increase your chance of being picked?

It's probably not better.Not to begin with but that's an alternative. You could get as many "lottery tickets" as events you
compete in, regardless of result. But I don't know if that is better.

Some people don't have access to certain puzzles, such as 6-7, clock or kilominx, and it wouldn't be quite fair to give people with more money/experience a better chance at winning.
Hello! I'm brand new here. Do I need a Stackmat to compete here? I know it said official WCA regs so I wasn't sure. I just use a phone timer for my at home solves. Also, when they say random competitor, does that have anything to do with the times or is it truly random? Thanks.
Pretty sure you don't, although I use one.If you need a stackmat then I've been doing it wrong for over a year. Doesn't mean I haven't been doing it wrong, just not everybody uses one.
Well, I don't think so. I don't even have a stackmat lolHello! I'm brand new here. Do I need a Stackmat to compete here? I know it said official WCA regs so I wasn't sure.

Wow, that's nice - it would put things back where participation points would be worth a lot of the total, like it was back in the early years, and it would be immune to increases in competitor numbers. I like it, but I wonder how others feel?Sketch of an alternative suggestion (for the whole scoring system, not just FMC): half of your score is kinch-style and half of your score is participation points, each scaled to be out of 50.
