solving a cube with your feet is pretty weird
periodtremove 3x3.
3x3 is silly and shouldn't exist
solving a cube with your feet is pretty weird
Most people would think that solving a cube at all is really weird...solving a cube with only one hand is pretty weird
This is the real answer right here.Most people would think that solving a cube at all is really weird...
I have tried it and could hardly turn the cube at all. Different people have different opinions, but I can see your pointHonestly, continuing on what iiNaxezi said, there are some people whose main event is feet. However, one thing the WCA did take into account however, and I thank them for, is for those who are disabled and are unable to use their hands, they can use their feet in a 3x3 round. You might know that technically, your hands have more bacteria than your feet. Someone else mentioned this in a similar thread— I don’t remember who. Sorry— and they also mentioned that while grossness can be understandable, general hygiene can’t. I don’t really think the community knows this. Also, it seems like the majority of people who don’t like feet have never even tried it once. So, they’ve just preemptively decided they hate feet. I mean, how would you know if you haven’t even tried it?
Feet is one of those things that takes a little practice, and it seems impossible until you get the hang of it, but then it really isn’t that hard.I have tried it and could hardly turn the cube at all. Different people have different opinions, but I can see your point
Ok. I can understand that you don’t like it; considering the fact that you HAVE actually tried it. It’s the fact that the majority of people who hate feet just preemptively decide they don’t like it before they’ve even tried it. I mean, you don’t know until you give it a go. You know what I’m saying?I have tried it and could hardly turn the cube at all. Different people have different opinions, but I can see your point
It’s because the majority of the people who hate feet have just preemptively decided they don’t like it without even trying it, only because it looks, sounds, and seems gross or stupid.lol i just got onto this thread and my one question is why is OH in the poll thing? all the arguments for removing feet dont apply for OH.
Why is that somehow an invalid set of reasons?It’s because the majority of the people who hate feet have just preemptively decided they don’t like it without even trying it, only because it looks, sounds, and seems gross or stupid.
Because it’s prejudicial. And inasmuch as any of those reasons have any objective basis they are false.Why is that somehow an invalid set of reasons?
Likes and dislikes are inherently prejudicial. "Seems gross" is a perfectly legitimate reason to not like something or to not try it. People do it ALL THE TIME with food, for example. You can disagree with that assessment but you also can't force someone to NOT think something "seems gross".Because it’s prejudicial.

I agree but that isn't what I was talking about. See the post I originally responded to.“Seems gross” is a legitimate reason to not try something, although one is a better person who can overcome that initial distaste and try it anyway. It is absolutely not a legitimate reason to stand in the way of another person enjoying it.
I mean, how would you know for sure if you haven’t even tried it? That’s what I’m saying.Why is that somehow an invalid set of reasons?
I don’t think anybody has ever said that anybody should be forced to compete in any event, just that you shouldn’t be removing an event or arguing for its removal if you haven’t competed in that event.I agree but that isn't what I was talking about. See the post I originally responded to.
I 100% agree. You never know until you give it a go. You might like it after trying it. Honestly, feet’s just a fun event. Last year, it was my least favorite event. Now, it’s my third favorite. The WCA is just getting rid of so much recent progress.I don’t think anybody has ever said that anybody should be forced to compete in any event, just that you shouldn’t be removing an event or arguing for its removal if you haven’t competed in that event.
